Answer:

For the length of time less than 6 hours cost less to hire Hanks movers

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x -----> the time in hours

y ----> the total cost in dollars

we know that

<em>Acme movers</em>

y=30x+150 ----> equation A

<em>Hanks movers</em>

y=55x ----> equation B

Equate equation A and equation B and solve for x

55x=30x+150

55x-30x=150

25x=150

x=6\ hours

That means-----> For x= 6 hours The cost in both companies is the same

<u><em>Verify</em></u>

For x=6 hours

<em>Acme movers</em>

y=30(6)+150=\$330

<em>Hanks movers</em>

y=55(6)=\$330

If x < 6 hours ----> It cost less to hire Hanks movers

If x > 6 hours ----> It cost less to hire Acme movers

therefore

For the length of time less than 6 hours cost less to hire Hanks movers

6. Calculate the area of the octagon in the<br> figure below.
Kryger [21]

Answer:

41\text{ [units squared]}

Step-by-step explanation:

The octagon is irregular, meaning not all sides have equal length. However, we can break it up into other shapes to find the area.

The octagon shown in the figure is a composite figure as it's composed of other shapes. In the octagon, let's break it up into:

  • 4 triangles (corners)
  • 3 rectangles (one in the middle, two on top after you remove triangles)

<u>Formulas</u>:

  • Area of rectangle with length l and width w: A=lw
  • Area of triangle with base b and height h: A=\frac{1}{2}bh

<u>Area of triangles</u>:

All four triangles we broke the octagon into are congruent. Each has a base of 2 and a height of 2.

Thus, the total area of one is A=\frac{1}{2}\cdot 2\cdot 2=2\text{ square units}

The area of all four is then 2\cdot 4=8 units squared.

<u>Area of rectangles</u>:

The two smaller rectangles are also congruent. Each has a length of 3 and a width of 2. Therefore, each of them have an area of 3\cdot 2=6 units squared, and the both of them have a total area of 6\cdot 2=12 units squared.

The last rectangle has a width of 7 and a height of 3 for a total area of 7\cdot 3=21 units squared.

Therefore, the area of the entire octagon is 8+12+21=\boxed{41\text{ [units squared]}}

An engineer is trying to design a runway for an airport. He knows that airplanes have the ability to accelerate at 3.3 m/s ^ 2 a
chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer:

The proposed 1600 meters runway length is not long enough

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters are;

The amount by which a plane can accelerate = 3.3 m/s²

The time it takes for a plane to lift off the ground = 35 seconds

The length of the runway on the blueprint = 1,600 meters

Therefore, from the equation of motion for distance traveled, s, acceleration, a, and time taken, t, we have;

s = u·t + 1/2·a·t²

Where;

u = The initial velocity

t = 35 seconds

a = 3.3 m/s²

Given that all planes will start motion from rest, we have;

u = 0 m/s

Therefore;

s = 0 × 35 + 1/2 × 3.3 × 35² = 2021.25 meters

Which indicates that the length of the runway a plane would need for take off should be at least 2021.25 meters long, therefore, the blueprint's 1600 meters runway length is not long enough.

What makes composing functions different from doing an arithmetic operation of two functions such as adding or dividing them?
11111nata11111 [884]

function composition is an operation that takes two functions f and g and produces a function h such that h(x) = g(f(x)). In this operation, the function g is applied to the result of applying the function f to x.
