Answer:

20 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Your friend starts 10 meters in front of the starting line.

You start from the starting line.

You run at 6 meters/ second.

Your friend runs at 5.5 meters/second.

You and your friend will be at the same distance from the starting line only when you are able to catch your friend.

The relative speed between you two is the difference in your speed and your friend's speed that is:

6-5.5=0.5m/s

So to cover 10 meters of separation at the speed of 0.5 meter/second it will take:

t=\frac{10}{0.5}= \frac{100}{5}=20s

So it will take 20 seconds for you and your friend to be at the same distance from the starting line.

This section of a concrete skateboard ramp has the shape of a triangular prism. Find the volume of the triangular prism. Find th
NISA [10]

Answer:

The volume of the triangular prism: 59.2 ft^{3}

The value of the concrete used is: 16*4 = $64

Step-by-step explanation:

I think your question is missed of key information, allow me to add in and hope it will fit the original one.  Please have a look at the attached photo

My answer:

As we know that, the formula to find out the volume of the triangular prism is:

V = \frac{1}{2} a*b*h when h is the height and a&b are the length of the two square edges. So we have:

  • V = \frac{1}{2}*4*4*7.4 = 59.2 ft^{3}

To find the concrete used in the ramp if the cost of concrete is $ 4.00 per cubic foot, we need to know the area of the ramp, which is:

S = 4*4 = 16 ft^{2}

Hence, the value of the concrete used is: 16*4 = $64

John has × marbles and max has twice as many.max give gives john 5 of his marbles does max now have
rjkz [21]

Answer: 2x -5

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to write equations with the information given:

  • <em>John has × marbles  </em>

John=x

  • <em>Max has twice (multiplied by 2) as many.max give gives john 5 of his marbles. </em>

We have to multiply by 2 the number of marbles that John has (x), and subtract 5.  

Max = 2x -5

Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.

please explain the steps that are used to solve this??? Given:2(10 -13x)+9=-34x+60 Step 1:20-26x=-34x+60 Step 2:-26x=-34x+40 Ste
solmaris [256]
You left out the 9 in the whole equation. The 1st step you had right you just forgot to put +9. 2nd step you are combining the like terms and get 11-26x=-34x+40. Step 3: you are trying to isolate the x on one of the sides. You need to switch the 11 over to the 40 and get 29. Move -34x over to -26x and get 8x. Step 4 all you are doing in dividing 8 from both sides and get 5.
