Answer:

The length of the hallway is 10 m.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Time taken to cover 1 km = 2.5 hours

Distance covered in 2.5 hours = 1 km

Therefore, speed of robot = \frac{\textrm{Distance}}{\textrm{TIme}}=\frac{1}{2.5}=0.4\ km/h

Now, speed is constant.

Now, time taken to cover the length of hallway = 90 s

Speed of the robot = 0.4 km/h

Converting 0.4 km/h to m/s, we multiply by the factor \frac{5}{18}. This gives,

0.4\times \frac{5}{18}=\frac{1}{9}\ m/s

Now, distance of the hallway is equal to the product of speed and time. So,

Distance of hallway = Speed \times Time

Distance of hallway = \frac{1}{9}\times 90=\frac{90}{9}=10\ m

Therefore, the length of the hallway is 10 m.

The perimeter of a right angled triangle is 56 cm and its hypotenuse is 25 cm. Find the area of triangle.​
Daniel [21]
Perimeter = 56
Hypo = 25
So 56-25 = 31 (for two side)
for one side = 31/2 = 15.5

so area = 1/2 x base x height

an automobile 16 feet long overtakes a truck that is 28 feet long and is traveling 30 mph. At what rate must the automobile trav
Oduvanchick [21]
<h2>Automobile must travel at 96 mph to pass the truck in 4 seconds.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Length of  automobile = 16 feet = 4.88 m

Length of truck = 28 feet = 8.53 m

Speed of truck = 30 mph = 48 km/h = 13.33 m/s

Time in which automobile to pass truck = 4 s

Distance traveled by truck in 4 seconds = 4 x 13.33 = 53.33 m

Distance which need to cover by automobile in 4 seconds to pass truck is the sum of length of  automobile, length of truck and distance traveled by truck in 4 seconds.

Distance which need to cover by automobile in 4 seconds = 4.88 + 8.53 + 53.33

Distance which need to cover by automobile in 4 seconds = 66.74 m

Distance = Speed x Time

66.74 = Speed x 4

Speed = 16.69 m/s = 60 km/h = 96 mph

Automobile must travel at 96 mph to pass the truck in 4 seconds.

How do you solve (2x-7)(5x+3)=0
sammy [17]

Step-by-step explanation:

First I do it as separate equations 2x-7=0 and 5x+3=0. In this equation you get two answers so you first answer 2x-7=0

2x-7=0

    +7   +7

2x=7

/2   /2

x=7/2

Then do 5x+3=0

                     -3  -3

                5x=-3

                    /5 /5

                x=  -3/5

Then you can check by putting them back in.

Bia earns a commission on the sales she makes each month. Within a month, Bia earns a 3% commission on the first
barxatty [35]
First we are gonna find the 3% of $3000 and take it from the $157.50.

3000 x 0.03 = $90
157.60 - 90 = $67.50

Then we are gonna find the amount that 4.5% of is equal to $67.50.

4.5/100=67.50/x (cross multiply)
4.5x = 67.50x100
4.5x = 6750 (divide both sides by 4.5)
4.5x/4.5 = 6750/4.5
x = 1500

Therefore the amount she earned in sales is $3000 + $1500 = $4500
