Answer:

4 minutes and 10 seconds.

Step-by-step explanation:

Time = Distance / Speed (or rate)

Time = 17.5 feet / 0.07 feet per second

Hence, time = 250 seconds.

250 seconds = 4 minutes 10 seconds.

Determine whether the given measures can be the lengths of the sides of a triangle. write yes or no. explain. 9.2, 14.5, 17.1

Sergio039 [100]

If the triangle has a angle of 90°, you can solved this exercise by applying the Pythagorean Theorem, which is:

h²=a²+b²
h=√(a²+b²)

h: It is the hypotenuse (The opposite side of the right angle and the longest side of the triangle).

a and b: They are the legs (The sides that form the right angle).

The result of h=√(a²+b²), should be 17.1 (The longest side given in the problem). So, let's substitute the values of the legs into the Pythagorean equation:

h=√(a²+b²)
h=√((9.2)²+(14.5)²)
h=17.1

Therefore, the answer is:

Yes, the given measures can be the lengths of the sides of a triangle.

Find x and y <br><br> pls help

ahrayia [7]

Answer:

x = 14

Step-by-step explanation:

110 + 5x = 180

-110 -110

5x = 70

divide by 5 on both sides

x = 14

to find y add 70 + 40 + missing angle = 2y

missing angle is 70 because 70+40+70 = 180

so 2y = 110

y = 55

zaharov [31]

Answer:

The amount of peanuts to use is 5 pounds and that of cashews is 30 pounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the amount of peanut to use to be x

Let the amount of cashews to use to be 35-x

Form equations to compare amounts for individual foods and the mixture

$8x+15(35-x)=35(14)\\\\8x+525-15x=490\\\\7x=35\\\\x=5\\\\$

So the pounds to be used for peanuts is 5 pounds

The pounds to be used for cashews will be 35-x= 35-5=30 pounds

Cameron buys 2.45 pounds of apples and 1.65 pounds of pears. Apples and pears each cost c dollars per pound. If the total cost a

Leto [7]

Answer:

2.45c + 1.65c = 4.12 + 0.75

Step-by-step explanation:

To write an equation to find the value for c, we need to declare what c is first.

c = price of fruit

2.45c + 1.65c = 4.12 + 0.75

Now we multiplied c to 2.45 and 1.65 and added them together, because whatever the value of c is will give us the equivalence of the sum of 4.12 + 0.75.

Now to check if the equation is right, let's solve for c.

2.45c + 1.65c = 4.12 + 0.75

4.1c = 4.87

Now to get the value of c, we divide both sides of the equation by 4.1.

$\dfrac{4.1c}{4.1}=\dfrac{4.87}{4.1}$

c = 1.19

Now let's substitute the value of c in the equation to see if we got it right.

2.45(1.19) + 1.65(1.19) = 4.12 + 0.75

2.92 + 1.96 = 4.87

4.87 = 4.87

Therefore concluding that the value of c is 1.19.
