Answer:

C) 1/4,3/8,2/5

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all, let's rewrite all the fractions listed as decimal numbers:

\frac{2}{5}=0.400

\frac{1}{4}=0.250

\frac{3}{8}=0.375

So the correct order from least to greatest should be

0.250, 0.375, 0.400

Which corresponds in fractional form to

1/4, 3/8, 2/5

So the correct option is

C) 1/4,3/8,2/5

. One car traveled 210 miles and drove 20 mph hour faster than a second car drove 150 miles. If the cars were traveling for the
inn [45]

Answer:

The first car was traveling 70 mph, while the second was driving 50 mph.

Step-by-step explanation:

Set the cars as a proportion:

\frac{210}{x + 2}  =  \frac{150}{x}

X represents the speed of the second car. By cross multiplying, you get the following equation:

210x = 150(x + 20)

You solve by distributing 150 to get 210x = 150x + 3000.

Solving for x gets you 50.

That means the first car was going at 50 mph. Adding 20, you get 70 as the speed for the second car.

Which of the following vectors are orthogonal to (1,5)? Check all that apply
Andre45 [30]
We know that
If the scalar product of two vectors<span> is zero, both vectors are </span><span>orthogonal

</span><span>A. (-2,5)
</span>(-2,5)*(1,5)-------> -2*1+5*5=23-----------> <span>are not orthogonal 

</span><span>B. (10,-2)
</span>(10,-2)*(1,5)-------> 10*1-2*5=0-----------> are  orthogonal 

<span>C. (-1,-5)
</span>(-1,-5)*(1,5)-------> -1*1-5*5=-26-----------> are not orthogonal 

<span>D. (-5,1)
</span>(-5,1)*(1,5)-------> -5*1+1*5=0-----------> are  orthogonal 

the answer is 
B. (10,-2) and D. (-5,1)  are  orthogonal  to  (1,5)

What are the solutions of the equation (x-3)2 + 2(x – 3) - 8= 0? Use u substitution to solve.
astraxan [27]

Answer:

x = - 1 and x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

(x - 3)² + 2(x - 3) - 8 = 0

Let u = x - 3, then

u² + 2u - 8 = 0 ← solve for u

(u + 4)(u - 2) = 0 ← in factored form

Equate each factor to zero and solve for u

u + 4 = 0 ⇒ u = - 4

u - 2 = 0 ⇒ u = 2

Convert back to x, that is

x - 3 = - 4 ( add 3 to both sides ) ⇒ x = - 1

x - 3 = 2 ( add 3 to both sides ) ⇒ x = 5
