Answer:they would meet at 1 pm

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance between Quebec City and New York City is 520 miles.

At the point where Kate and Will meet, they would have travelled 520 miles.

Let t represent the time it takes Kate to travel a certain distance before they met.

Distance = speed × time

If Kate drives at 55mph, the distance covered would be

55 × t = 55t.will drives at 75 mph

Since Will left same that that Kate left, distance travelled by Will in t hours would be

75 × t = 75t

Since the total distance covered is 520 miles, it means that

55t +75t = 520

130t = 520

t = 520/130 = 4

9 am + 4 hours = 1 pm

Answer:

  1 pm

Step-by-step explanation:

Their combined speed is 55 + 75 = 130 miles per hour. That is the rate at which the distance between them is decreasing. The time it takes for the distance between them to become zero is found from the relation ...

  time = distance/speed

  time = (520 mi)/(130 mi/h) = 4 h

4 hours after 9 am, Kate and Will will meet. That time is 1 pm.

Find the equation of the exponential function represented by the table below:
Leona [35]

Answer:

The exponential equation is;

y = 0.1•0.5^x

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to get the exponential function represented by the table

Mathematically, the general form of an exponential function is;

y = a•b^x

By getting a and b, we have the exponential function

We can use any of the points;

Let us start with (0,0.1)

0.1 = a•b^0

anything raised to zero is 1

0.1 = a * 1

a = 0.1

Now, we have a

Let us work with the second point to get b

The point is (1,0.05)

0.05 = 0.1•b^1

0.05 = 0.1b

b = 0.05/0.1

b = 0.5

Thus, we have the equation as;

y = 0.1•0.5^x

Can someone please help me on number 16-ABC
melomori [17]

Answer:

Please check the explanation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the inequality

-2x < 10

-6 < -2x

<u>Part a) Is x = 0 a solution to both inequalities</u>

FOR  -2x < 10

substituting x = 0 in -2x < 10

-2x < 10

-3(0) < 10

0 < 10

TRUE!

Thus, x = 0 satisfies the inequality -2x < 10.

∴ x = 0 is the solution to the inequality -2x < 10.

FOR  -6 < -2x

substituting x = 0 in -6 < -2x

-6 < -2x

-6 < -2(0)

-6 < 0

TRUE!

Thus, x = 0 satisfies the inequality -6 < -2x

∴ x = 0 is the solution to the inequality -6 < -2x

Conclusion:

x = 0 is a solution to both inequalites.

<u>Part b) Is x = 4 a solution to both inequalities</u>

FOR  -2x < 10

substituting x = 4 in -2x < 10

-2x < 10

-3(4) < 10

-12 < 10

TRUE!

Thus, x = 4 satisfies the inequality -2x < 10.

∴ x = 4 is the solution to the inequality -2x < 10.

FOR  -6 < -2x

substituting x = 4 in -6 < -2x

-6 < -2x

-6 < -2(4)

-6 < -8

FALSE!

Thus, x = 4 does not satisfiy the inequality -6 < -2x

∴ x = 4 is the NOT a solution to the inequality -6 < -2x.

Conclusion:

x = 4 is NOT a solution to both inequalites.

Part c) Find another value of x that is a solution to both inequalities.

<u>solving -2x < 10</u>

-2x\:

Multiply both sides by -1 (reverses the inequality)

\left(-2x\right)\left(-1\right)>10\left(-1\right)

Simplify

2x>-10

Divide both sides by 2

\frac{2x}{2}>\frac{-10}{2}

x>-5

-2x-5\:\\ \:\mathrm{Interval\:Notation:}&\:\left(-5,\:\infty \:\right)\end{bmatrix}

<u>solving -6 < -2x</u>

-6 < -2x

switch sides

-2x>-6

Multiply both sides by -1 (reverses the inequality)

\left(-2x\right)\left(-1\right)

Simplify

2x

Divide both sides by 2

\frac{2x}{2}

x

-6

Thus, the two intervals:

\left(-\infty \:,\:3\right)

\left(-5,\:\infty \:\right)

The intersection of these two intervals would be the solution to both inequalities.

\left(-\infty \:,\:3\right)  and \left(-5,\:\infty \:\right)

As x = 1 is included in both intervals.

so x = 1 would be another solution common to both inequalities.

<h3>SUBSTITUTING x = 1</h3>

FOR  -2x < 10

substituting x = 1 in -2x < 10

-2x < 10

-3(1) < 10

-3 < 10

TRUE!

Thus, x = 1 satisfies the inequality -2x < 10.

∴ x = 1 is the solution to the inequality -2x < 10.

FOR  -6 < -2x

substituting x = 1 in -6 < -2x

-6 < -2x

-6 < -2(1)

-6 < -2

TRUE!

Thus, x = 1 satisfies the inequality -6 < -2x

∴ x = 1 is the solution to the inequality -6 < -2x.

Conclusion:

x = 1 is a solution common to both inequalites.

A gardener uses 1/3 of a liter of water to water 2/7 of a garden.
Serjik [45]

the gardener would need (1 + 1/6) liters of water to water the whole garden.

<h3>How much water would the gardener need to water the whole garden?</h3>

Here we know that the gardener needs 1/3 of a liter of water to water 2/7 of a garden.

Then we have the relation:

1/3 L = 2/7 of a garden.

Now, we want to get a "1 garden" in the right side of the equation, then we can multiply both sides by (7/2), so we get:

(7/2)*(1/3) L = (7/2)*(2/7) of a garden

(7/6)L = 1 garden.

(1 + 1/6) L = 1 garden

This means that the gardener would need (1 + 1/6) liters of water to water the whole garden.
