Lets say you can go on 'x' number of times

If every time it takes 2min to prepare for the ride and the ride itself takes 1 and 1/2 min, then both together would be

2min + 1 and 1/2 min = 3 and 1/2 min

Now divide from 30

30/ (7/2) #notice I changed 3 and 1/2 to 7/2 so they are the same denominator

= 30 * 2/7 # when dividing by a fraction, you can multiply the numerator by the reverse of the bottom fraction

= 60/7

This number can not be simplified. However the number of full rides would be 8 times

7*8 = 56

Now the remaining 4/7 times... isn't possible! You can't go on a ride less than one time!

So the answer is 8!

8 or 8 1/2 because you won't finish the ride due to 28 + 3 1/2 being odd

What is the general form of the equation for the given circle centered at O(0, 0)?
eduard
The general form of  such an equation is  
x^2 + y^2 = r^2      where r = radius

In this case r^2 = 4^2 + 5^2 = 41   

So the required equation is x^2 ^ y^2 = 41

Solve for y.<br> 2x-3y=9
cluponka [151]

Answer:

y = 2/3x - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Write equation

2x - 3y = 9

Step 2: Solve for <em>y</em>

  1. Subtract 2x on both sides: -3y = 9 - 2x
  2. Divide both sides by -3: y = -3 + 2/3x
  3. Rewrite: y = 2/3x - 3

To find the area of a prism, you calculate the area of the cross-section and multiply that number by the length. The cross-section of this prism is a trapezium, and the formula for this is \frac{a+b}{2}h. 
Insert your given numbers to find out the area of this prism's cross-section:
\frac{3+12}{2}12=90
Now, multiply 90 by the length, 10cm, to find out the volume of the prism;
90×10=900cm³
Therefore, your answer id the third option.
