Answer:

a) 27 m/s

b) 30 m/s

c)   i) 3

     ii) Deceleration

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is not complete, the correct question is given as:

The graph shows information about the speed of a vehicle during the final 50 seconds of a journey.  At the start of the 50 seconds the speed is k metres per second.  The distance travelled during the 50 seconds is 1.35 kilometres.

(a) Work out the average speed of the vehicle during the 50 seconds

(b) Work out the value of k.

(c) (i) Calculate the gradient of the graph in the final 10 seconds of the journey

    (ii) Describe what this gradient represents

Answer:

The graph is attached. The total time = 50 seconds, total distance = 1.35 km = 1350 m  

a) The average speed is the ratio of the total distance traveled to the total time taken to cover this distance. The average speed is given by the formula:

Average \ speed=\frac{total\ distance}{total\ time}\\ Substituting: \\ Average \ speed=\frac{1350\ m}{50\ s} = 27\ m/s

b) From the graph, the total distance covered is the area of the graph. The graph is made up of a rectangle and triangle, the area of the graph is equal to the sum of area of rectangle and area of triangle.

Total \ distance=Total\ area=Area\ of \ rectangle+Area\ of \ triangle\\Total \ distance=(length *breadth)+\frac{1}{2}base*height\\1350 \ m=(40*k)+0.5*10*k\\1350=40k+5k\\45k=1350\\k=1350/45\\k=30\ m/sc) i) The gradient in the last 10 seconds is the ratio of change in speed to change in time

Gradient=\frac{change\ in\ speed }{change\ in\ time}=\frac{0-k}{50-40}  \\ bt \ k=30\\Gradient=\frac{0-30}{50-40}= \frac{-30}{10} =-3

ii) Since the gradient is negative it means it is deceleration. That is in the in the last 10 seconds the vehicle decelerates at a rate of 3 m/s²

What is the future value of $845 a year for seven years at an interest rate of 11.3 percent? $6,683.95 $6,075.69 $8,343.51 $8,00
k0ka [10]
The future value of cash whose initial value is $845, at the rate of 11.3% for 7 years will be calculated using the compound interest rate, that is:
A=p(1+r/100)^n
where:
A=future amount
r=rate=11.3%=0.113
time=7 years
thus the future value of our cash will be:
A=845(1+0.113)^7
A=845(1.113)^7
A=$1,787.82

Ritta purchased a package of stickers. She noticed 4 out of every 5 stickers where purple. Which table shows the relationship be
lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

4:5

Step-by-step explanation:

I don't see the table but since it is 4 out of every 5 stickers are purple, the ratio would be 4:5, 4/5, or 4 to 5. It doesn't really matter, because all of these mean the same thing.

Tell me if I'm wrong :)

What is the value of x in the <br> triangle?
Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

x = 75°

Step-by-step explanation:

Sum of angles in a triangle: 180°

So,

50°+55°+x=180°

105°+ x = 180°

Subtract 105° from both sides

x = 75°
