Answer:
the variable x represents a hidden or unkown value
Step-by-step explanation:
For No. 13 you need to calculate the distance each girl travels and compare to see whose distance is greater. The formula for distance is rate x time or d=rt. The rate is just how fast they consistently go.
Mia
d = r x t
d = 14 x 3/2
d = 21 miles
Chloe
d = r x t
d = 35 x 3/4 (btw 3/4 is just 45/60 simplified)
d = 105/4 = 26 1/4 miles
Final Answer: Chloe traveled further
For No. 14 we will recalculate Mia's distance but replace 1/5 hours with 2 hours because it says she will bike 30 minutes after Chloe had stopped. Afterwards we will compare Mia's new distance with Chloe's old distance.
Mia
d = r x t
d = 14 x 2
d = 28 miles
Final Answer: Yes Mia would be able to catch up to Chloe, and even surpass her in 30 minutes if Chloe stopped.
For the largest area, half the fence is used parallel to the river, and the other half is used for the two ends of the rectangular space.
The dimensions are 475 m by 237.5 m.
_____
Let x represent the length along the river. Then the area (A) is found as
.. A = x*(950 -x)/2
This equation describes a parabola with its vertex (maximum) halfway between the zeros of x=0 and x=950. That is, the maximum area is achieved when half the fence is used parallel to the river.
Answer:
3. 4 meters
6. wrong, it should be 7000 meters
7. 2 dm > 10 cm
8. 30 cm = 3 dm
9. 6 km > 5000 m
10. 8 m < 90 dm
Step-by-step explanation:
__________
Answer:
The first incorrect justification is in step 2.
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 2</u>. BC2 = AC • DC
2. BC ÷ DC = BC ÷ AC because triangle ABC is similar to triangle BDC
It's supposed to be AC ÷ BC not BC ÷ AC.
