So  he drove 5hrs, before lunch, now, he was going at speed, say "r", after he ate, he sped up by 10mph, so, his rate is whatever "r" is, plus 10, or " r + 10 ", after lunch

we know the whole trip took 10hrs, so, is 5hrs before lunch and 5hrs after lunch

we also know the whole trip was 500miles, so if he drove, say "d" miles before lunch, after lunch he drove the slack after lunch, or " 200 - d "

recall, your d = rt, distance = rate * time

\bf \begin{array}{lccclll}
&distance&rate&time\\
&-----&-----&-----\\
\textit{before lunch}&d&r&5\\
\textit{after lunch}&500-d&r+10&5
\end{array}
\\\\\\

\begin{cases}
\boxed{d}=5r\\
500-d=(r+10)5\\
----------\\
500-\boxed{5r}=(r+10)5
\end{cases}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{500-5r}{5}=r+10\implies 100-r=r+10

and I'm sure you know what that is

Answer:

Size of N(S) = 90, or S=90

Step-by-step explanation:

So since there are 10 items:

Each single item has 9 possibilities to be paired with, since it is drawn without replacement, and 1 item can't be drawn again.

So : 10 items x 9 possibilites = array of 90

Charlie is trying to cover the shape shown with paper. He will NOT be covering the top and the bottom. How much paper will he ne
DENIUS [597]

You need to determine how much paper you need to cover the lateral side of the cylinder shown in the picture. For this, you have to calculate the surface area of the cylinder, which you can do using the following formula:

A=2\pi rh

Where

A is the area

π is the number pi, for the calculations we usually use up to the first two decimal values of this number, 3.14

r is the radius

h is the height of the cylinder

The given cylinder has a height of h=15m and a diameter of d=6m

To calculate the lateral area you need to use the radius. The diameter is twice the radius, so to determine the radius of the cylinder you have to divide the diameter by 2

\begin{gathered} r=\frac{d}{2} \\ r=\frac{6}{2} \\ r=3 \end{gathered}

Now you can calculate the lateral area as follows:

\begin{gathered} A=2\pi rh \\ A=2\cdot3.14\cdot3\cdot15 \\ A=282.6m^2 \end{gathered}

Charlie will need 282.6 m² to cover the lateral side of the cylinder.

A local hamburger shop sold a combined total of 500 hamburgers and cheeseburgers on Wednesday. There were 50 fewer cheeseburgers
Virty [35]

Hey there! I'm happy to help!

Let's call the hamburgers h and the cheeseburgers c.

h+c=500

c=h-50

Let's plug this value for c into the first equation to solve for h.

h+h-50=500

2h-50=500

Add 50 to both sides.

2h=550

Divide both sides by 2.

h=275

Therefore, 275 hamburgers were sold on Wednesday.

Have a wonderful day! :D
