Answer:

8 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Sheyna drives to the lake with average speed of 60 mph and

v_1 = 60\ mph

Sheyna drives back from the lake with average speed of 36 mph

v_2 = 36\ mph

It took 2 hours less time to get there than it did to get back.

Let t_1 be the time taken to drive to lake.

Let t_2 be the time taken to drive back from lake.

t_2-t_1 = 2 hrs ..... (1)

To find:

Total time taken = ?

t_1+t_2 = ?

Solution:

Let D be the distance to lake.

Formula for time is given as:

Time =\dfrac{Distance}{Speed }

t_1 = \dfrac{D}{60}\ hrs

t_2 = \dfrac{D}{36}\ hrs

Putting in equation (1):

\dfrac{D}{36}-\dfrac{D}{60} = 2\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{5D-3D}{180} = 2\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{2D}{180} = 2\\\Rightarrow D = 180\ miles

So,

t_1 = \dfrac{180}{60}\ hrs = 3 \ hrs

t_2 = \dfrac{180}{36}\ hrs = 5\ hrs

So, the answer is:

t_1+t_2 = \bold{8\ hrs}

Help!!! Quick!!! Plzzzzz!!!

Answer:

x = -8

y = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

to solve this expression using simultaneous equation, we would say let

y =9............................................. equation 1

 6x + 5y =-3............................................equation 2

substitute equation 1 into equation 2

-3 = 6x + 5y............................................equation 2

6x + 5(9) = -3

6x + 45 = -3

collect the like terms

6x = -3-45

6x = -48

divide both sides by the coefficient of x which is 6

6x/6 = -48/6

x = -8

therefore y = 9

x = -8

C is the correct answer


we should find the area of the square and then divide it by 24.
(360/15=24)


6 \times 6 \times \pi \times  \frac{1}{24}  = 36 \times \pi \times  \frac{1}{24}   \\  = 113.04 \times  \frac{1}{24}  = 4.71



good luck

The perimeter of the picture frame is 38 inches. The width of the frame is 7 inches, what is the length?
o-na [289]

Answer:

12 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

So you know that the perimeter of a picture frame (a rectangle) is 2 widths plus 2 lengths.

Let x= lengths and w= widths

From the question we already know that w=7, so we can set up an equation that says:

2x + 2w = 38

2x + 2(7) = 38

2x+14 = 38

2x +14 -14 = 38-14

2x = 24

2x/2 = 24/2

x= 12

Since x= lengths =12

the length of the frame is 12 inches.
