Answer:

D from A = 34 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

We know the total distance  is 200 miles  (this would be when they meet)

The rate for cyclist A is 17

The rate for cyclist B is 83

We know the time is equal


Distance = rate * time

Distance for A = 17t

Distance for B = 83 t

The total distance  =  distance for A + distance for B

200 = 17t + 83t

Combine like terms

200 = 100t

Divide each side by t

200/100 = 100t/100

They will meet at t =2 hours

I know you say we need the distance

Distance for A

D = 17*t

We now know t

D = 17*2

D = 34 miles

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

cyclist going 17 mph n motorcyclist going 83 mph opposite way

so their net closing speed=17+83=100mph

A n B 200 mi apart

so they will meet in 200/100=2hrs

at dat time, cyclist will be 2x17=34mi from pt A

What is (26.9+8.3)+5.1
Bess [88]

Answer:

40.3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given (26.9 + 8.3) +5.1

First simplify the bracket

26.9 + 8.3= 35.2

Now add to 5.1 . We are adding because of the + sign attached to 5.1

35.2 + 5.1

40.3

Convert the general form of the circle given into standard form.
Semmy [17]
The\ standard\ form\ of\ the\ circle:\\\\(x-a)^2+(y-b)^2=r^2\\\\where\\(a;\ b)\ are\ the\ coordinates\ of\ a\ center\ of\ the\ circle\\r\ is\ a\ radius\ of\ the\ circle\\------------------------

2x^2+2y^2-20x-8y+50=0\ \ \ \ |divide\ both\ sides\ by\ 2\\\\x^2+y^2-10x-4y+25=0\\\\x^2-10x+y^2-4y=-25\\\\x^2-2x\cdot5+y^2-2y\cdot2=-25\\\\\underbrace{x^2-2x\cdot5+5^2}_{(*)}-5^2+\underbrace{y^2-2y\cdot2+2^2}_{(*)}-2^2=-25\\(x-5)^2-25+(y-2)^2-4=-25\\\\(x-5)^2+(y-2)^2-29=-25\\\\(x-5)^2+(y-2)^2=-25+29

\boxed{(x-5)^2+(y-2)^2=4}\\\\the\ center:(5;\ 2)\\the\ radius:r=\sqrt4=2

Carlos is draining an aquarium. The graph shows the amount of water ( in liters) in the aquarium versus time ( in minutes
olya-2409 [2.1K]

Using a linear function, we have that:

a) The amount of water in the aquarium at 0 minutes is of 300 liters.

b) As time increases, the amount of water decreases at a rate of 60 liters per minute.

<h3>What is a linear function?</h3>

A linear function is modeled by:

y = ax + b

In which:

  • a is the slope, which is the rate of change, that is, by how much y changes when x changes by 1.
  • b is the y-intercept, which is the value of y when x = 0, and can also be interpreted as the initial value of the function.

In this problem, we have that the y-intercept is of 300, hence the amount of water in the aquarium at 0 minutes is of 300 liters.

The amount <u>decreases 60 liters in a minute,</u> hence:

As time increases, the amount of water decreases at a rate of 60 liters per minute.
