4 hours

using the formula

distance = speed × time (t)

the Ford will have travelled 3 × 40 = 120 miles before the Chevy leaves

the Ford's distance can be modelled as

distance = 40t + 120

the Chevy's distance can be modelled as

distance = 70t

equating the right sides and solve for t

70 t = 40t + 120 ( subtract 40t from both sides )

30t = 120 ( divide both sides by 30 )

t = 4

the Chevy catches up with the Ford after 4 hours

19. Perimeter of rectangle = 2(l + b)

l = 25m

b = 16m

Perimeter of rectangular park = 2 (25 + 16)

= 50 + 32

= 82m

Perimeter of square park = 82m

(given that, perimeter of rectangular and square park are equal)

Perimeter of square = 4a

4a = 82

a = 82/4

a = 20.5m

Area of square park = a²

= 20.5²

= 420.25m²

20. Perimeter of regular hexagon = 6a

a = 2.5

6a = 6 × 2.5

= 15cm

21. Perimeter of regular decagon = 10a

a = 8

10a = 10 × 8

= 80cm

2 trig ratios missing sides and angels
ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the cosine ratio in the right triangle.

cos66° = \frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse} = \frac{13}{x} ( multiply both sides by x )

x × cos66° = 13 ( divide both sides by cos66° )

x = \frac{13}{cos66} ≈ 32.0 ( to the nearest tenth )

What’s 4x + 7y + 4 + 5x + y
fomenos

Hello!

Okay, so first we need to add like terms... so first, add the terms with the same variables. That gives us:

9x + 7y + 4 + y

Now add 7y and y

That gives us:

9x + 8y + 4

This can't be added anymore... this is as far as we can go because they are no longer like terms.
