Answer:

8 minutes if Jane was assumed to be stationary

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is on relative speed

First find the distance covered by Jane when Sally left school

Speed=Distance/Time ⇒⇒ Distance=Time×Speed

Time=10minute=10/60 hrs

Jane's speed= 12mph

Distance covered by Jane when Sally left school was= 12 ×10/60 = 2miles

So, when Sally left school, Jane was 2 miles away. To find the time Sally requires to catch up with Jane;

Time=Distance/speed

Time of meeting =2/15 hrs ⇒⇒ 2/15 × 60 =8minutes

Solve the equation below for x:<br><br><br> 0.25(x - 13) = 7
VikaD [51]

Answer:

x=41

Step-by-step explanation:

0.25(x-13)=7

We move all terms to the left:

0.25(x-13)-(7)=0

We multiply parentheses

0.25x-3.25-7=0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

0.25x-10.25=0

We move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right

0.25x=10.25

x=10.25/0.25

x=41

Fraction of the shape shaded on these two shapes??
xxTIMURxx [149]
The one of the left isn't too tricky, in the bottom left of it you have 1/2 of 1/4 of the shape, and on the bottom right you have 1/4 of 1/4. Imagine the whole shape was cut up like that bottom right bit into 16 triangles, then you would have three of them shaded (see my diagram).

The one on the right seems like guesswork to me, so I'm sorry if I'm wrong. It look like you just have to use your eyes to work out how much of the bottom half of the shape is shaded: looks like 1/16 to me (i.e. you can draw four of those along and four down, again, see my diagram.) So plus the top half, which is 8/16, you get 9/16.

Answers: left picture: 3/16.
                 right picture: 9/16.

What is the equation of the following line written in slope-intercept form?
nasty-shy [4]
SOLUTION:

To begin with, let's establish that the formula of this line is in slope-intercept form as follows:

y = mx

The formula for this line isn't:

y = mx + b

This is as this line doesn't have a y-intercept ( b ) as it passes through the origin instead. This means that ( b ) would be rendered useless in this formula as it would just bring us back to the y = mx formula as displayed below:

y = mx + b
y = mx + 0
y = mx

Moving on, for ( m ), we need to find the gradient of the line as displayed below:

m = gradient
m = rise / run
m = 10 / 2
m = 5

Now, we must simply substitue ( m ) into the formula in order to obtain the equation for this line as displayed below:

y = mx
y = 5x

Therefore, the answer is:

A. y = 5x
