Answer:they would meet after 4.5 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

At the point where they will both meet, they would have covered a total distance of 540 miles.

Let t represent the time it will take the car and the truck to meet.

Distance = speed × time

The car drives at a speed of 65 miles per hour. Distance covered by the car in t hours would be

65 × t = 65t

The truck travels at a speed of 55 miles per hour.

Distance covered by the truck in t hours would be

55 × t = 55t

Therefore,. 65t + 55t = 540

120t = 540

t = 540/120 = 4.5 hours

KiRa [710]

The length of the inseam to be removed from the pant is 3 2 / 3 inches.

<h3 /><h3>How to find the length to be removed?</h3>

The length of the pant he bought is 34 inches and it was too long.

He wants the length to be 30 1 / 3 inches long.

Therefore, the amount of length to be removed can be calculated as follows;

34 - 30 1 / 3

30\frac{1}{3}  = \frac{91}{3}

Hence,

34-\frac{91}{3}=\frac{102-91}{3} =\frac{11}{3}=3\frac{2}{3}  inches

Therefore, the number to be removed is 3 2 / 3 inches

If a population of 200 squirrels has a 10 percent growth rate each year, how many individuals will there be in the population af
Anarel [89]
For this case we have a function of the form:
 y = A * (b) ^ t
 Where,
 A: initial amount
 b: growth rate
 t: time
 Substituting values we have:
 y = 200 * (1.10) ^ (t)
 For 3 years we have:
 y = 200 * (1.10) ^ (3)
 y = 266.2
 Rounding off we have:
 y = 266
 Answer:
 
there will be 266 squirrels in the population after 3 years

Which graph represents the function y – 3 = 3/2 (x – 4)?
Alinara [238K]

y - 3 =  \frac{3}{2} (x - 4)
y =  \frac{3}{2} x - 3
-3 is our y-intercept is plotted on both graphs yet one is negative and the other is positive and
\frac{3}{2} x
Is our slope and is positive and the graph that is positive is the first graph.
