Jaime knows that the area of a triangle can be found by the formula a=1/2bh. If the area of a triangle is 3.8 m2 and the height

is 4.6 meters, what is the length of the base rounded to the nearest tenth of a meter?

Triangle area = .5* (base * height)
3.8 = ( base * 4.6 ) / 2
7.6 / 4.6 = base
base = <span> <span> <span> 1.652173913 </span> </span> </span>
or base = 1.6 rounded

Use synthetic division to find the quotient and the remainder for the problem: (12x^4 + 5^3 + 3x^2 - 5)/(x+1)?,
s344n2d4d5 [400]
Step 1 : Setting up the problem

Write the coefficients of the dividend in the same order. For missing terms, enter the co-efficient as zero. Set the divisor equal to zero and use that number in the division box.

The problem now looks as follows:

 -1 | 12 5 3 0 -5

Step 2 : Bring down the first co-efficient and write it in the bottom row.

 -1 | 12 5 3 0 -5
 ______________________ 12 

Step 3 : Multiply the first coefficient with the divisor and enter the value below
the next co-efficient. Add the two and write the value in the bottom row.

 -1 | 12 5 3 0 -5
 _____-12_______________ 12 -7

Step 4 : Repeat Step 3 for rest of the coefficients as well:

 -1 | 12 5 3 0 -5
 ____________7 ___________ 12 -7 10 


 -1 | 12 5 3 0 -5 ______________ -10______ 12 -7 10 -10 
  -1 | 12 5 3 0 -5 ____________________ 10_ 12 -7 10 -10 5 
 The last row now represents the quotient coefficients and the remainder. Co-efficients of Quotient are written one power less than their original power and the remainder is written as a fraction.

Answer :12x^3-7x^2+10x-10+5/(x+1) where the last term denotes the remainder and the rest is the quotient.

Two planes start flying towards each other simultaneously from two different cities. The distance between the cities is 960 mile
ANTONII [103]

Answer:

257.5 mph

332.5 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

The initial distance between the two planes is 960 miles, while the final distance (after t=1.5 h) is 75 miles, so the total distance covered by the two planes in 1.5h is

d=960-75=885 miles

Calling v1 and v2 the velocities of the two planes, we have the following equations:

(1) v_1 = v_2 + 75 --> velocity of plane 1 exceeds velocity of plane 2 by 75 mph

(2) v_1 t+ v_2 t=885 --> the total distance covered by the two planes is 885 miles (t=1.5 h is the time, and the products v1 t and v2 t represent the distance covered by each plane)

Substituting t=1.5 h, the second equation becomes:

1.5 v_1+1.5 v_2=885\\v_1 + v_2 = 590

By substituting (1) into this last equation, we find:

(v_2+75)+v_2 = 590\\2v_2 + 75 = 590\\2v_2 = 515\\v_2=257.5

And substituting this back into eq.(1), we find

v_1 = 257.5 + 75=332.5

So, the speeds of the two planes are

257.5 mph

332.5 mph
