Problema Solution

Terrance and Jesse are training for a long-distance race. Terrance trains at a rate of 6 miles every half hour, and Jesse trains at a rate of 2 miles every 15 minutes.

How long will each person take to run a total of 50 miles at the given rates?

Answer provided by our tutors

d = 50 mi the distance
t1 = the time of Terrance
t2 = the time of Jesse
Terrance trains at a rate of 6 miles every half hour thus his rate is:
v1 = 6/0.5 = 12 mph
Jesse trains at a rate of 2 miles every 15 minutes thus his rate is:
v2 = 2/(15/60) = 8 mph
since speed = distance/time follows time = distance/speed:
t1 = d/v1
t1 = 50/12
t1 = 4 1/6 hr
t1 = 4 hr 10 min
t2 = d/v2
t2 = 50/8
t2 = 6 1/4 hr
t2 = 6 hr 15 min
Terrance will run 4 hours and 10 minutes.
Jesse will run 6 hours and 15 minutes.

Answer:

6.71

Step-by-step explanation:

→ Find a triangle to use

Tan = Opposite ÷ Adjacent

→ Rearrange to make opposite the subject

Opposite = Tan × Adjacent

→ Substitute in the values

Opposite = Tan (40) × 8

→ Simplify

Opposite = 6.71

If f(x) = 2x - 9, which of the following are correct? Select all that apply. f(-1) = -11 f(2) = 5 f(3) = -3 f(0) = -9 f(-3) = 15
Yuri [45]

f(-1) = -11 and f(3) = -3 . these functions are true .

What does a math function mean?

  • A relationship between a group of inputs and one output each is referred to as a function.
  •  A function is an association between inputs in which each input is connected to precisely one output.
  • A domain, codomain, or range exists for every function. f(x), where x is the input, is a common way to refer to a function.
  • In mathematics, a function is an expression, rule, or law that establishes the relationship between two variables (the dependent variable).

given function  f(x) = 2x - 9

   f(-1) = -11 ⇒ x = -1 put in function

                       f( -1 ) = 2 * -1 - 9  ⇒ - 11

    f(2) = 5   ⇒ x = 2 put in function

                    f( 2 ) = 2 * 5 - 9 = 1

    f(3) = -3  ⇒  x = 3 put in function

                     f ( 3 ) = 2 * 3 - 9 = -3

       f(-3) = 15   ⇒  x =  -3 put in function

                     f( -3) = 2 * -3 - 9 = - 15

Two altitudes of a triangle have lengths $12$ and $14$. What is the longest possible integer length of the third altitude
nataly862011 [7]

The longest possible altitude of the third altitude (if it is a positive integer) is 83.

According to statement

Let h is the length of third altitude

Let a, b, and c be the sides corresponding to the altitudes of length 12, 14, and h.

From Area of triangle

A = 1/2*B*H

Substitute the values in it

A = 1/2*a*12

a = 2A / 12 -(1)

Then

A = 1/2*b*14

b = 2A / 14 -(2)

Then

A = 1/2*c*h

c = 2A / h -(3)

Now, we will use the triangle inequalities:

  • a < b+c

2A/12 < 2A/14 + 2A/h

Solve it and get

h<84

  • b < a+c

2A/14 < 2A/12 + 2A/h

Solve it and get

h > -84

  • c < a+b

2A/h < 2A/12 + 2A/14

Solve it and get

h > 6.46

From all the three inequalities we get:

6.46<h<84

So, the longest possible altitude of the third altitude (if it is a positive integer) is 83.
