Answer:

TMS = 45.78 m/s

SMS = 45.66 m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

Vehicle Travel Time (s)

1 40.5

2 44.2

3 41.7

4 47.3

5 46.5

6 41.9

7 43.0

8 47.0

9 42.6

10 43.3

Time mean speed and space mean speed are parameters used to express the speed of a group of vehicles in traffic flow.

Time mean speed is given as the average speed of all the cars

The speed for each vehicle is calculated by dividing the (2000 ft) distance by the time taken by each vehicle to complete that segment of the journey.

Let vehicle = V

Travel time = time

Speed = s

V | Time | speed (ft/s)

1 | 40.5 | 49.383

2 | 44.2 | 45.249

3 | 41.7 | 47.962

4 | 47.3 | 42.283

5 | 46.5 | 43.011

6 | 41.9 | 47.733

7 | 43.0 | 46.512

8 | 47.0 | 42.553

9 | 42.6 | 46.948

10| 43.3 | 46.189

TMS = (Σsᵢ)/N

Σsᵢ = (49.383+45.249+47.962+42.283+43.011+47.733+46.512+42.553+46.948+46.189)

Σsᵢ = 457.823

N = number of vehicles = 10

TMS = 457.823 ÷ 10 = 45.7823 = 45.782 m/s

b) Space mean speed is given as

SMS = N ÷ [Σ (1/sᵢ)]

V | Time | speed | (1/sᵢ)

1 | 40.5 | 49.383 | 0.02025

2 | 44.2 | 45.249 | 0.02210

3 | 41.7 | 47.962 | 0.02085

4 | 47.3 | 42.283 | 0.02365

5 | 46.5 | 43.011 | 0.02325

6 | 41.9 | 47.733 | 0.02095

7 | 43.0 | 46.512 | 0.02150

8 | 47.0 | 42.553 | 0.02350

9 | 42.6 | 46.948 | 0.02130

10| 43.3 | 46.189 | 0.02165

Σ (1/sᵢ) = (0.02025+0.02210+0.02085+0.02365+0.02325+0.02095+0.02150+0.02350+0.02130+0.02165)

Σ (1/sᵢ) = 0.219

SMS = 10 ÷ [Σ (1/sᵢ)] = 10 ÷ 0.219

SMS = 45.662 m/s

Hope this Helps!!!

Which is equivalent to V180x11 after it has been simplified completely?
inna [77]

Question:

Which is equivalent to \sqrt{180x^{11}} after it has been simplified completely?

Answer:

\sqrt{180x^{11}} = 6x^{5}\sqrt{5x}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

\sqrt{180x^{11}}

Required

Simplify

We start by splitting the square root

\sqrt{180x^{11}} = \sqrt{180} * \sqrt{x^{11}}

Replace 180 with 36 * 5

\sqrt{180x^{11}} = \sqrt{36 * 5} *  \sqrt{x^{11}}

Further split the square roots

\sqrt{180x^{11}} = \sqrt{36} *\sqrt{5} *  \sqrt{x^{11}}

\sqrt{180x^{11}} = 6*\sqrt{5} *  \sqrt{x^{11}}

Replace power of x; 11 with 10 + 1

\sqrt{180x^{11}} = 6*\sqrt{5} *  \sqrt{x^{10 + 1}}

From laws of indices; a^{m+n} = a^m * a^n

So, we have

\sqrt{180x^{11}} = 6*\sqrt{5} *  \sqrt{x^{10} * x^1}

\sqrt{180x^{11}} = 6*\sqrt{5} *  \sqrt{x^{10} * x}

Further split the square roots

\sqrt{180x^{11}} = 6*\sqrt{5} *  \sqrt{x^{10}} * \sqrt{x}

From laws of indices; \sqrt{a} = a^{\frac{1}{2}}

So, we have

\sqrt{180x^{11}} = 6*\sqrt{5} *  x^{10*\frac{1}{2}} * \sqrt{x}

\sqrt{180x^{11}} = 6*\sqrt{5} *  x^{\frac{10}{2}} * \sqrt{x}

\sqrt{180x^{11}} = 6*\sqrt{5} *  x^{5} * \sqrt{x}

Rearrange Expression

\sqrt{180x^{11}} = 6 *  x^{5} * \sqrt{5} * \sqrt{x}

\sqrt{180x^{11}} = 6x^{5} * \sqrt{5} * \sqrt{x}

From laws of indices; \sqrt{a} *\sqrt{b} = \sqrt{a*b} = \sqrt{ab}

So, we have

\sqrt{180x^{11}} = 6x^{5} * \sqrt{5*x}

\sqrt{180x^{11}} = 6x^{5} * \sqrt{5x}

\sqrt{180x^{11}} = 6x^{5}\sqrt{5x}

<em>The expression can no longer be simplified</em>

Hence, \sqrt{180x^{11}} is equivalent to 6x^{5}\sqrt{5x}

angle works at AutoZone and makes $72 dollars a day and extra $8 for each platinum membership card he sells. angles goal is to m
GenaCL600 [577]

Angle needs to sell 16 membership cards.

First, I subtracted 72 from 200 and that gave me 128. Then, I divided 128 by 8 and got 16. To check my work I multiplied 16 by 8 and got 128. Then I added 72 to 128 and got 200.

Hope this helps!

Solve for x..........10 points*
Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

\huge\boxed{\sf x = 12}

Step-by-step explanation:

8x + 34 = 130 <u>(Vertical Angles are Equal)</u>

Subtract 34 to both sides

8x = 130 - 34

8x = 96

Divide both sides by 8

x = 96 / 8

x = 12

\rule[225]{225}{2}

Hope this helped!
