<span>Wanda started walking along a path 27 seconds before Dave. Wanda walked at a constant rate of 3 feet per second. Dave walked along the same path at a constant rate of 4.5 feet per second. How long after Dave starts walking will he catch up with Wanda ?
***
let x=travel time of Dave
x+27=travel time of Wanda
speed*travel time=distance (same for both Wanda and dave)

..
4.5x=3(x+27)
4.5x=3x+81
1.5x=81
x=54
How long after Dave starts walking will he catch up with Wanda ? 54 sec</span>

Courtney had $55 to spend at the fair. She paid $22.50 for rides and $14.25 for lunch and snacks. Courtney says she has $18.25 l
IrinaVladis [17]
She has $55. She spent $22.50 on rides so now she has $32.50 . Then she spends $14.25 on lunch and snack so now she has $18.25.


A. would be wrong because Courtney IS correct, she has $18.25 left.

C. is also wrong because, again, Courtney IS correct.

So the only option left is B and it explains why Courtney is correct.

Option B is the correct answer.

Hope this helps.

In a certain city, 80 percent of the households have cable television and 60 percent of the households have videocassette record
alexandr1967 [171]

Answer:

60,000

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the total people in the household be 100%

If 80 percent of the households have cable television, 60 percent of the households have videocassette recorders and the number of households that have both cable television and videocassette recorders is 'x' percent. The number of households having ONLY cable television will be 80-x while households having ONLY videocassette will be 60-x.

To get x, we will have;

80-x + 60-x + x = 100

140-x = 100

x = 140-100

x = 40

This shows that 40% of the households have both cable television and videocassette.

If there are 150,000 households in the city, then the number of households that have both cable television and videocassette recorders could be 40% of 150,000

= 40/100 × 150,000

= 60,000

Number of households that owns both television and videocassette could be from 60,000.

Which expression is equivalent to
dimulka [17.4K]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2 - 7x + 12 +  (x - 3)^2             Add (x - 3)^2 after it has been expanded.

x^2 - 7x + 12 + x^2 - 6x + 9        Combine like terms

2x^2 -7x - 6x + 21

2x^2 - 13x + 21                           Factor

(2x - 7)(x - 3)

Which is exactly what D says.

Why is it incorrect
Bond [772]
Keeping in mind that, an absolute value, is in effect a piece-wise function, so is a duplet, so |whatever here|   is really two siblings, the positive and negative siblings  +(whatever here) and -(whatever here), thus

\bf \cfrac{|3v-1|}{5}\ge 4\implies |3v-1|\ge 20\implies &#10;\begin{cases}&#10;+(3v-1)\ge 20\\&#10;-(3v-1)\ge 20&#10;\end{cases}\\\\&#10;-------------------------------\\\\&#10;+(3v-1)\ge 20\implies 3v-1\ge 20\implies 3v\ge 21\implies v\ge \cfrac{21}{3}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\boxed{v\ge 7}\\\\&#10;-------------------------------\\\\

\bf -(3v-1)\ge 20\implies -3v+1\ge 20\implies -3v\ge 19&#10;\\\\\\&#10;\stackrel{\textit{negative division, the sign changes}}{v\le \cfrac{19}{-3}}\implies \boxed{v\le -\cfrac{19}{3}}\\\\&#10;-------------------------------\\\\&#10;7\le v\le -\cfrac{19}{3}
