Two cyclists, 112 miles apart, start riding toward each other at the same time. One cycles 3 times as fast as the other, and the

y meet after 4 hours of riding.
a. Write an equation using the information as it is given above that can be solved to answer this problem. Use the variable r to represent the speed of the slower cyclist.

b. What are the speeds of the two cyclists? Put both values in the answerbox, separated with a comma, and select the appropriate units.

Answer:

Speed of a= 21 miles/hr

r = Speed of b= 7 miles/hr

Speed of a = 3r

Step-by-step explanation:

The cyclist are 112 miles apart

Time traveled by two = 4 hours

Speed of a = 3 * speed of b

If a cylcles 3 times More than b, then a will cover 3*distance of b

But speed = distance/time

Time = 4hours

Total distance=112

a = 3b

3b + b = 112

4b = 112

b = 112/4

b = 28 miles

a = 3b

a = 3*28

a = 84 Miles

They bought traveled 4 hours

Speed of a = 84miles/4 hours

Speed of a= 21 miles/hr

Speed of b = 28miles/4 hours

Speed of b = 7 miles/hr

iragen [17]

Answer:

a = 139.1

b = 56.2

Step-by-step explanation:

A. Reference angle = 68°

Opp = a

Hyp = 150

Therefore:

Sin 68 = opp/hyp

Sin 68 = a/150

150*sin 68 = a

a = 139.1 (nearest tenth)

B. Reference angle = 68°

Adj = b

Hyp = 150

Therefore:

Cos 68 = adj/hyp

Cos 68 = b/150

150*cos 68 = b

b = 56.2 (nearest tenth)

MrMuchimi
The median or middle would be 1.5, since in the middle are 2 numbers 1, and 2. You would add them together and divide them by 2 and get 1.5

Answer:

21

Step-by-step explanation:

Add 34 to both sides.

14x = 11x + 63

Subtract 11x from both sides

3x = 63

Divide both sides by 3

21

When dilation is about the origin, as it is here in every case, the image point coordinates are the original (pre-image) coordinates multiplied by the scale factor.

1. Multiply every coordinate value by 5:

... W' = (-5, 10), X' = (-15, -5), Y' = (25, -5), Z' = (15, 10)

2. Multiply every coordinate value by 1/3:

... A' = (-2, 5), B' = (0, 5/3), C' = (1, 10/3)

3. A' = (2, 8), B' = (6, 2), C' = (2, 2)

4. The image coordinates are 5 times the original coordinates, so ...

... the scale factor of the dilation is 5.
