Answer:

Correct answer:  t = 10 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

V₁ = 12 ft/s , V₂ = 10 ft/s  initial distance d = 20 ft

To the moment  he catches his friend the first skater will have crossed the distance d₁ and the second d₂.

d₁ = d + d₂

d₁ = V₁ · t

d₂ = V₂ · t

when we substitute this into the initial formula we get:

V₁ · t = d + V₂ · t ⇒ d = V₁ · t - V₂ · t  ⇒ d = t (V₁ - V₂) ⇒ t = d / (V₁ - V₂)

t = d / (V₁ - V₂) = 20 / (12 - 10) = 20 / 2 = 10 seconds

t = 10 seconds

What is value of x and y if<br> Y=-2x+8 and Y=3x-7
iren [92.7K]

Answer:

X=5 y=-2

Set them equal to each other so...

-2x+8=3x-7

Simplify by balancing out the equation so

-5x=-1

So x=5

Now plug it into either y equation

-2(5)+8

-10+8

Y=-2

Answer:

Area=2232 square ft

Perimeter=206 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

given

the diagram is a rectangle

length=72 ft

width=31 ft

we know that

formula of the area of rectangle= length × width

Area=72×31 square ft

Now calculate the perimeter

perimeter of rectangle=2(length+width)

perimeter=2(72+31)

perimeter=2(103)

perimeter=206 ft
