Answer:

The equation you are asking for is

40*(t+3) = 55*t,

where t is the time counted after the second car started.

The equation says that the distance covered by each car from the starting point to the catching point is the same for both cars.

Work out the unknown angles. Give reasons for each answer.
zalisa [80]
A)

Because the sum of angles in a triangle must equal 180° we can say:

62+α+90=180

α+152=180

α=28°

b)

Since all sides have equal length, all angles must have equal measure.  (This is an equilateral triangle).  And again, because the sum of the angle must be 180° we can say:

b+b+b=180

3b=180

b=60°

If a spring stretches 6 meters when a 7-kilogram weight is attached to it, how much will it stretch when a 42-kilogram weight is
Zinaida [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

 This is a simple proportion problems.

7 kilogram weight attache to a spring stretches  = 6 meters

 1 kilogram would stretch                                       =  6/7 m

Therefore 42 kilograms would  stretch                  = (6/7 x 42)meters

                                                                                 =  36 meters.
