Two boats are moving towards each other from harbours that are 144 km apart. One boat is moving at 63 km.h-1 and the other boat

at 81 km.h-1 . If both started their journey at the same time, how long will they take to pass each other?

Answer: 1 hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Let distance1 = x km

Distance2 = 144 - x

Speed S1 = 63 kph

Speed S2 = 81 kph

Time = Distance / Speed

When the jets pass each other

(144-x) / 81 = x/63

63(144-x) = 81x

9072 - 63x = 81x

x = 9072 / 144

x = 63 km

Time = 63/63 = 1 hour

Which is a feature of a traditional IRA? There is no age limit for contributions. You can contribute until you're 70.5 years old
Crank
Hey there!

For a traditional IRA, you can only contribute until you're 70 and a 1/2 years old. There's no minimum age requirement to make any IRA contributions, but you must have a regular income that equals or exceeds your contribution. 

Hope this helped you out! :-)

How do I solve for the minimum and maximum of the function y=-1/2x^2 -5x+2
Sever21 [200]

Try this solution:

There are several ways to find the max or min of the given function:

1. to use derivative of the function. For more details see the attachment (3 basic steps); the coordinates of max-point are marked with green (-5; 14.5)

2. to use formulas. The given function is the standart function with common equation y=ax²+bx+c, it means the correspond formulas are (where a<0, the vertex of this function is its maximum):

X_0=-\frac{b}{2a} ; \ X_0=-\frac{-5}{2*(-\frac{1}{2})} =-5.

Y_0=-\frac{D}{4a}; \ Y_0=-\frac{25+4*2*0.5}{4*(-\frac{1}{2})} =14.5

Finally: point (-5;14.5) -  maximum of the given function.

3. to draw a graph.

HELP BRAINISET TO WHOEVER RIGHT
Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

A: 171.75

B: 170

Step-by-step explanation:

The mean (or average) can be found by...

- add all the numbers together (we will call this y)

- divide the total sum (or y) by the total amount of numbers used to add

Formula:

(x₁ + x₂ + x₃ + ... + xₙ) ÷ n

For A:

(172 + 130 + 173 + 212) ÷ 4 = 171.75

For B:

(136 + 184 + 168 + 192) ÷ 4 = 170
