Answer:

6 seconds.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Matt starts 9 ft from a motion detector. He walks towards the motion detector at a constant rate of 1  1/2 feet per sec or 3/2 feet/sec.

We know that, s= vt  

here, s or distance is 9 feet and the constant velocity is 3/2 feet per second or 1.5 feet/sec.

According to the formula, t= s/v

Or, t= 9/ 1.5 = 6

So, Matt will take 6 seconds to reach the motion detector.

What is X? x divided by 4/9 = 9/10
Damm [24]

Answer:

2/5

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{x}{\frac{4}{9} } =\frac{9}{10}

(\frac{9}{10})(\frac{4}{9} )=\frac{36}{90}

36 divided by 90 is 2/5.

When solving for X you do the opposite to a number if you are moving it to the other side of the problem. so, since x is being divided by 4/9, 4/9 would be multiplied to the opposite or to the 9/10.

Two cars start from the same point driving in opposite directions. Both cars drive 6miles. One car stops, the other car makes a
dimaraw [331]

Answer:

  • <u>14.4 mile</u>²

Explanation:

1. By driving 6 miles each, the cars will be 6 miles + 6 miles = 12 miles appart.

2. When one car stops and the other car makes a 90° left-hand turn and drive 8 miles, you can model the situation with a right triangle, where one leg is 12 miles, the other leg is 8 miles, and the hypotenuse is the distance that separates the cars.

Hence, you must use Pythagoras to find that distance.

3. Pythagoras

  • hypotenuse² = leg₁² + leg₂²

  • hypotenuse = (12 mile)² + (8 mile)² = 144 mile² + 64 mile² = 208 mile²

  • hypotenuse=\sqrt{208mile^2}=14.4mile^2, which is rounded to the neartest tenth of a mile.
