Suppose a horse is galloping at 19 mph toward a clown, and the clown is racing toward the horse on an ATV which can sustain a sp

eed of 15mph. They are 50 miles apart from one another and start at the exact same moment in time. How much time will it take for the horse and clown to collide?

Answer:

It will take 1.47 hours for the horse and clown to collide

Step-by-step explanation:

They are driving toward each other, in opposite directions.

So to find their speed of approximation, we add their speeds.

19 mph + 15 mph = 34 mph.

This means that each hour, they are 34 miles closer.

How long it takes for them to find each other if they are 50 miles apart?

1 hour - 34 miles

x hours - 50 miles

34x = 50

x = \frac{50}{34}

x = 1.47

It will take 1.47 hours for the horse and clown to collide

VMariaS [17]

It’s a little surprising that this question didn’t come up earlier.  Unfortunately, there’s no intuitive way to understand why “the energy of the rest mass of an object is equal to the rest mass times the speed of light squared” (E=MC2).  A complete derivation/proof includes a fair chunk of math (in the second half of this post), a decent understanding of relativity, and (most important) experimental verification.

Michell bought 5 packs of crayons for $13.75 what's the coust of one pack?
Keith_Richards [23]
All you would do is divide for this problem so, 


13.75 ÷ 5 = 2.75

So one pack would cost 2.75

Identify the initial amount a and the growth factor b in the exponential function. f(x) = 620 • 7.8x
Ivanshal [37]
The given is f(x) = 620 · 7.8x

The standard equation for an exponential function is f(x) = Aoe^bx

where:
A is the initial amount
b is the growth factor which is constant
x is any real number

Therefore, the initial amount is 620 and the growth factor is 7.8
