88 feet in 2 seconds
how many feet in 1 minute?
1 minute is 60 seconds

so, we can write a proportion and solve
feet/ seconds = feet/seconds
88/2 = x / 60
cross multiply
(88 * 60 ) = 2 * x
5280 = 2x
divide both sides by 2
2640 = x

To check:
88/2 =?= 2640 / 60
44 = 44

So the car travels 2640 feet in 60 seconds, or 1 minute.

(btw just in case you wanted to know also, 2640 feet is equal to 0.5 of a mile, that car travels 0.5 miles in 1 minute)

Hope this helps

Find sin θ and cos θ if tan θ= 1/4 and sin 0>0.
Serga [27]

Answer:

\displaystyle \sin(\theta)= \frac{\sqrt{17}}{17}

\displaystyle \cos(\theta)= \frac{4 \sqrt {17} }{ 17 }

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to find sin(θ) and cos(θ) given that tan(θ) = 1/4 and sin(θ) > 0.

First, since tan(θ) and sin(θ) are both positive, cos(θ) must be positive as well.

Recall that tangent is the ratio of the opposite side to the adjacent side.

Therefore, the hypotenuse is:

h=\sqrt{4^2+1^2}=\sqrt{16+1}=\sqrt{17}

So, with respect to θ, the opposite side is 1, the adjacent is 4, and the hypotenuse is √17.

Then it follows that:

\displaystyle \sin(\theta)=\frac{1}{\sqrt{17}} = \frac{\sqrt{17}}{17}

And that:

\displaystyle \cos(\theta)= \frac{4}{\sqrt{17}} = \frac{4 \sqrt {17} }{ 17 }

I need help on #18<br> 5th grade math!
MAVERICK [17]

Answer: i hope it help :)

Step-by-step explanation:

If you want to multiply two mixed numbers, or a fraction and a mixed number, you can again rewrite any mixed number as an improper fraction. So, to multiply two mixed numbers, rewrite each as an improper fraction and then multiply as usual. Multiply numerators and multiply denominators and simplify

Match the range of the function f(x) = x2 2x − 1 to its domain.
Ivan
F(x) = x^2 + 2x -1

Domain all real number

Range: all real numbers equal or greater than -2.

To find the range you need to find the vertex of the parabole, which is (-1,-2) and use the fact that, given that the coefficient of x^2 is positive, the funcion open upwards (which means that the vertex is a global minimum).

To find the vertex you use the quadratic formula to find the roots and then the x-coordinate of the vertex is in the middle of the two roots.
