Zachary and his children went into a grocery store and will buy bananas and peaches.
stealth61 [152]

Answer:

0.5b + 1.5p ≤ 8

Step-by-step explanation:

The inequality function is as follows:

Let us assume the number of bananas acquired be b

And, the number of peaches acquired be p

Cost of each banana be $0.50

ANd, the cost of each peach be $1.50

Also the total would be $8

The possible values of banana is 0.5b

And, for peaches it would be 1.5p

So, the inequality function is

0.5b + 1.5p ≤ 8

A car is traveling at 60 mph and is tailgating another car at distance of only 30 ft. If the reaction time of the tailgater is 0
Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

44 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that;

Speed; v = 60 mph

Reaction time;t = 0.5 s

Now, we know that;

Distance = speed x time

Since time is in seconds, let's convert speed to mph to ft/s

From conversion,

1 mph = 1.46667 ft/s

So, 60 mph would give;

60 × 1.46667 ≈ 88 ft/s

Thus, distance his car travels during his reaction time is;

Distance = 88 × 0.5 = 44 ft
