The difference in distance started out being 1 mile. The difference in speeds is 5 mph, so that 1 mile will be covered in ...

  time = distance/speed = 1 mi/(5 mi/h) = (1/5) h

Loretta’s income last year was $81,300.

Amount made in salary = $56,800

So, additional passive income is = 81300-56800=24500 dollars

Can anyone help me refresh my mind?!
Nuetrik [128]
That is correct. The log3 stays the same and the numerator goes first and then the denominator goes second. When it’s a fraction like that one, the standard form would be subtraction.

Find the length of the tangent segment AB to the circles centered at O and O' whose radii are a and b respectively when the circ
bixtya [17]

Answer:

AB=2\sqrt{ab}

Step-by-step explanation:

From figure,

OA=a,  \quad \quad O'B=b\\\Rightarrow OO'= (a+b) \quad \quad \text{and}\quad OD=(a-b)

In triangle OO'D

  (OO')^2=(OD)^2+(O' D)^2

\Rightarrow (a+b)^2=(a-b)^2+(O' D)^2\\\Rightarrow a^2+b^2+2ab-a^2-b^2+2ab=(O' D)^2\\\Rightarrow 4ab=(O' D)^2\\\Rightarrow O'D=2\sqrt{ab} \\\Rightarrow O' D=2\sqrt{ab}=AB \quad \quad [\because O' DAB\;\; \text{is a rectangle.}]

Hence, AB=2\sqrt{ab}
