once the plane is in the air. It takes approximately 2 hours to check in to the airport and get seated. It takes 1 hour after seating for the plane to take off. It takes 1 hour once at the air port to disembark, and 1 hour to get a rental car and get back on the road. The whole trip can be driven by car in 6 hours. Which trip is faster: Car or plane?

Answer:

  • car trip is faster than plane trip

Step-by-step explanation:

The less time the trip takes the faster the trip is.

<u>1. Plane</u>: build a table with the given times for flying and sum up every stage of the flying trip:

Stage                                                 time

  • On air                                       1 h: 20'
  • Check in and get seated        2 h
  • To take off                                1 h
  • Disembark                                1 h
  • Get a rental car                        1 h

                                                        ______

                                      Sum            6 h: 20'

<u>2. Car</u>.

  • Given total time: 6 h

<u>3. Comparisson</u>: 6 h < 6 h : 20' ⇒ car trip is faster than plane trip

uysha [10]
The newspaper has 1200 readers because if 60 people is only 5%

if you divide 95 by 5 it is 19. 19 times 60 equals 1140. 1140 plus 60 equals 1200. 5% of 1200 is 60.

Please help, this chapter was on derivatives...
Usimov [2.4K]
<h3>Answer:  ds/dt = 11</h3>

================================================

Work Shown:

Before we can use derivatives, we need to find the value of s when (x,y) = (15,20)

s^2 = x^2+y^2

s^2 = 15^2+20^2

s^2 = 225+400

s^2 = 625

s = sqrt(625)

s = 25

-----------

Now we can apply the derivative to both sides to get the following.  Don't forget to use the chain rule.

s^2 = x^2 + y^2

d/dt[s^2] = d/dt[x^2 + y^2]

d/dt[s^2] = d/dt[x^2] + d/dt[y^2]

2s*ds/dt = 2x*dx/dt + 2y*dy/dt

2(25)*ds/dt = 2(15)*5 + 2(20)*(10)

50*ds/dt = 150 + 400

50*ds/dt = 550

ds/dt = 550/50

ds/dt = 11

-----------

Side note: The information t = 40 is never used. It's just extra info.

1. a. Is 3.2 - 5.7 positive, negative, or<br> zero?<br> (A. negative<br> B. zero<br> C. positive
swat32
3.2-5.7=-2.5 so its have to be a negative because a smaller number subtract a bigger number have to be equal to a negative number.

-(1+7x)-6(-7-x)=36 what is x equal to
Katyanochek1 [597]

Answer:

x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Write equation

-(1 + 7x) - 6(-7 - x) = 36

Step 2: Solve for <em>x</em>

  1. Distribute: -1 - 7x + 42 + 6x = 36
  2. Combine like terms: -x + 41 = 36
  3. Subtract 41 on both sides: -x = -5
  4. Divide both sides: x = 5

Step 3: Check

<em>Plug in x to verify it's a solution.</em>

-(1 + 7(5)) - 6(-7 - 5) = 36

-(1 + 35) - 6(-12) = 36

-(36) + 72 = 36

-36 + 72 = 36

36 = 36
