Answer:

1. Nora and Lila be on the same page of the book after 6 days and a half.

2. Nora and Lila be on the page 180.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's check the information given to resolve the question:

Current page of the novel that Nora is reading now = 128

Pages per day Nora reads = 8

Current page of the novel that Lila is reading now = 102

Pages per day Lila reads = 12

Days ahead for Nora and Lila will be on the same page = x

2. After how many days of reading will Nora and Lila be on the same page of the book?

128 + 8x = 102 + 12x

8x - 12x = 102 - 128 (Subtracting 12x and 128 at both sides)

-4x = -26

x = 6.5

Nora and Lila be on the same page of the book after 6 days and a half.

3. What page will they be on?

Nora : 128 + 8 (6.5) = 128 + 52 = 180

Lila : 102 + 12 (6.5) = 102 + 78 = 180

Nora and Lila be on the page 180

Tutorial Exercise A boat leaves a dock at 2:00 PM and travels due south at a speed of 20 km/h. Another boat has been heading due

ANTONII [103]

Answer:

Both the boats will closet together at 2:21:36 pm.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that - At 2 pm boat 1 leaves dock and heads south and boat 2 heads east towards the dock. Assume the dock is at origin (0,0).

Speed of boat 1 is 20 km/h so the position of boat 1 at any time (0,-20t),

Formula : d=v*t

at 2 pm boat 2 was 15 km due west of the dock because it took the boat 1 hour to reach there at 15 km/h, so the position of boat 2 at that time was (-15,0)

the position of boat 2 is changing towards east, so the position of boat 2 at any time (-15+15t,0)

Formula : D= $\sqrt{(x2-x1)^2+(y2-y1)^2}$

⇒ $D = \sqrt{20^2t^2+15(t-1)^2}$

Now let $F(t) = D^2(t)$

∵ $F'(t) = 800t + 450(t-1) = 1250t -450\\F'(t) =0$

⇒ t= 450/1250

⇒ t= .36 hours

⇒ = 21 min 36 sec

Since F"(t)=0,

∴ This time gives us a minimum.

Thus, The two boats will closet together at 2:21:36 pm.

1) write a system on equations with the solution (2, -3). Work the problem out using the substitution method

solmaris [256]

The system of the equations that have the solution of (2, -3) are given below.

3x + 2y = 0 and 3y = 2x - 13

<h3>What is the linear system?</h3>

A Linear system is a system in which the degree of the variable in the equation is one. It may contain one, two, or more than two variables.

Write a system of equations with the solution (2, -3).

From a single point, an infinite number of lines pass through this point.

Let one line is passing through the origin. Then the equation of the line will be

$\rm y = \dfrac{-3}{2} (x)\\\\y = -1.5x$

And the other line is perpendicular to the line which is passing through the origin and a point (2, -3).

$\rm y = \dfrac{2}{3} x + c$

Then this line also passes through a point (2, -3). Then the value of c will be

$\rm -3 = \dfrac{2}{3} \times 2 + c\\\\c \ \ = -13$

Then the equation of the line will be

3y = 2x -13

Find the area and the circumference of a circle with radius 4 yd

Romashka [77]

First, let's find the area! The formula to find the area of a circle is πr²

πr²

3.14 · 4²

50.24 yds²

Now let's find the circumference. The formula for this is 2πr

2πr

2 · 3.14 · 4

25.12 yds

Hope this helps!
