d=v \cdot t
d - distance
v - speed
t - time

Car A:
v_1 \\
t_1=2 \\
d_1=v \cdot 2=2 v

Car B:
15 mph faster than car A
v_2=v_1+15 \\ t_2=1.5 \\ d_2= (v_1+15) \cdot 1.5=1.5v_1 + 22.5

Both cars traveled equal distances:
d_1=d_2 \\
2v_1 = 1.5v_1+22.5 \\
2v_1-1.5v_1=22.5 \\
0.5v_1=22.5 \\
v_1=45 \\ v_2=45 + 15 =60

Car B traveled at the speed of 60 mph.

X/h + 1 = -2
Semenov [28]

Answer:

x = - 3h

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

\frac{x}{h} + 1 = - 2 ( subtract 1 from both sides )

\frac{x}{h} = - 3 ( multiply both sides by h )

x = - 3h

Answer:

y = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Make equal ratios. y  10               4

                                              =  

                               x   22.5          9

If you divide 10 and 22.5, you get 0.44 repeating. If you divide 4 and 9, you will also get 0.44 repeating.

Find the angle theta in radians.<br> ( PLEASE SHOW STEPS )
yKpoI14uk [10]
Hello!

As you can see, we have a radius of 6. If we divide, this means that this is 2.5 radians. To convert radians to degrees we use the formula below.

\frac{180}{ \pi }x

First of all we divide 180 by pi.

180/\pi≈57.3

Now we multiply by 2.5

57.3(2.5)=143.25°

Note that the angle we see is obtuse, or greater than 90°.

Therefore, ∠<span>θ</span>≈143.25°

Now we need to convert this back into radians. This can be represented by the equation below.

\frac{ \pi }{180}x

First we divide pi by 180 then multiply by our angle.

\pi/180(143.25)≈2.5

Therefore, our angle theta is about 2.5 radians.

I hope this helps!
