Answer:

The distance from Simon's house to the beach is 137.5 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The speed is equal to the ratio of the distance and the time

Let

s ----> the speed in mph

x ----> the distance in miles

y ---> the time in hours

s=\frac{x}{y}

we have

s=55\ mi/h

y=2\frac{1}{2}\ h=\frac{2*2+1}{2}=\frac{5}{2}\ h

substitute in the formula and solve for x

55=\frac{x}{(5/2)}

x=(5/2)55\\x=137.5\ mi

icang [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

The statement is expressed as

y

∝

x

inverse means

1

variable

To convert to an equation introduce k, the constant of variation.

y

=

To find k use the given condition that y = 8 when x = 4

2y/5y cube + 4y square + 6y
timama [110]

Answer:

here down is the answer

(2y/5y)^3+4y^2+6y

8y^3/125y^3 +16y^2+6y

8/125+16y^2+6y

8/125+16y^2+6y=0

16y^2+6y+8/125=0

it is in the form of quadratic equation

formula :

x=(-b+-square root of b^2-4ac) /2a

here a=16,b=6&c=8/125

x=(-b+-square root of b^2-4ac)/2a

x=(-6+-square root of 36-4.09)/2a here 4.09 came by calculation

x=(-6+-31.91)/2

so

x=(-6+31.91)/2 first (+);

x=25.91/2

x=12.955;

x=(-6-31.91)/2 then(-);

x=-37.91/2

x=-18.955 ;

ans is = 12.955&-18.955;

If granola costs $2.20 per pound, how much does 0.8 pound of granola cost?
alexgriva [62]

Answer:

$1.76

Step-by-step explanation:

when you multiply 2.20x 0.8 you get 1.76. at first I thought division was needed, but the answer to 2.20/0.8 is 2.75- which is more than the original cost. (sorry if this is confusing but) 0.8 pound is less than 1 pound, so the answer would need to be less than 2.20.
