A girls' track team must run 3 miles on the first day of practice and 6 miles every day after that. The boys' team must run 5 mi

les every day of practice. The coach will order new javelins at the end of the day that each girl's total mileage surpasses each boy's. How many total miles will each girl have run by the time the coach orders the new equipment?

Answer:

Each girl would have ran a total of 21 miles and boys would have ran a total of 20 miles by the end of the fourth day before the couch order new javelins.

Step-by-step explanation:

Girls track team

First day of practice=3 miles

Days afterwards= 6 miles

Boys track team

Everyday= 5 miles

coach will order new javelins at the end of the day that each girl's total mileage surpasses each boy's.

First day

Each girl total mileage= 3 miles

Each boy total mileage= 5 miles

Second day

Each girl total mileage= 3miles+6miles=9 miles

Each boy total mileage=5 miles+5 miles= 10 miles

Third day

Each girl total mileage= 3+6+6=15 miles

Each boy total mileage=5+5+5=15 miles

Fourth day

Each girl today mileage= 3+6+6+6=21 miles

Each boy total mileage=5+5+5+5= 20 miles

Difference=girls-boys

=21-20= 1 mile

The fourth day is the day each girl's total mileage(21 miles) surpasses each boy's total mileage(20 miles) with a total of 1 mile

Which best explains if quadrilateral WXYZ can be a parallelogram?
nekit [7.7K]

A quadrilateral in which opposite sides are parallel is called a parallelogram. The correct option is A.

<h3>What is a parallelogram?</h3>

A quadrilateral in which opposite sides are parallel is called a parallelogram. Thus, a parallelogram is always a quadrilateral but a quadrilateral can or cannot be a parallelogram.

For a parallelogram, the pair of opposite sides are equal and parallel. Therefore,

1.)  For the first pair.

(x+8) = 15

x = 7

2.) For the second pair

(x+2)=(2x-5)

x + 2 = 2x - 5

2 + 5 = 2x - x

x = 7

(x+2) = (7+2) = 9

Since the measure of the pair of opposite sides is 15 units, the pair of the other two sides measure 9 units.

Hence, the correct option is A.

The complete question is mentioned in the below image.

An object is heated to 100°. It is left to cool in a room that
stepladder [879]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Use Newton's Law of Cooling for this one.  It involves natural logs and being able to solve equations that require natural logs.  The formula is as follows:

T(t)=T_{1}+(T_{0}-T_{1})e^{kt} where

T(t) is the temp at time t

T₁ is the enviornmental temp

T₀ is the initial temp

k is the cooling constant which is different for everything, and

t is the time (here, it's in minutes)

If we are looking first for the temp after 20 minutes, we have to solve for the k value.  That's what we will do first, given the info that we have:

T(t) = 80

T₁ = 30

T₀ = 100

t = 5

k = ?

Filling in to solve for k:

80=30+(100-30)e^{5k} which simplifies to

50=70e^{5k} Divide both sides by 70 to get

\frac{50}{70}=e^{5k} and take the natural log of both sides:

ln(\frac{5}{7})=ln(e^{5k})

Since you're learning logs, I'm assuming that you know that a natural log and Euler's number, e, "undo" each other (just like taking the square root of something squared).  That gives us:

-.3364722366=5k

Divide both sides by 5 to get that

k = -.0672944473

Now that we have a value for k, we can sub that in to solve for T(20):

T(20)=30+(100-30)e^{-.0672944473(20)} which simplifies to

T(20)=30+70e^{-1.345888946}

On your calculator, raise e to that power and multiply that number by 70:

T(20)= 30 + 70(.260308205) and

T(20) = 30 + 18.22157435 so

T(20) = 48.2°

Now we can use that k value to find out when (time) the temp of the object cools to 35°:

T(t) = 35

T₁ = 30

T₀ = 100

k = -.0672944473

t = ?

35=30+100-30)e^{-.0672944473t} which simplifies to

5=70e^{-.0672944473t}

Now divide both sides by 70 and take the natural log of both sides:

ln(\frac{5}{70})=ln(e^{-.0672944473t}) which simplifies to

-2.63905733 = -.0672944473t

Divide to get

t = 39.2 minutes
