Answer:

1. 36 miles

2. 108 miles

3. 234 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we have the Distance in miles, time and calculated speed as follows;

Distance (miles) Elapsed time (hours) Speed (miles/hour)

0 0 0

72 2 36

144 4 36

216 6 36

Distance = Speed (miles/hour) × Elapsed Time (hour)

Therefore, in

1. 1 hour, she travels

1 × 36 = 36 miles

2. 3 hours she travels

3 hours × 36 miles/hour = 108 miles

3. 6.5 hours she travels

6.5 hours × 36 miles/hour = 234 miles.

Which expressions simplify to a rational answer? Select each correct answer. 29√⋅4√ 3√⋅16−−√ 73⋅−√3√ 5√⋅5√

PolarNik [594]

Answer:

The correct options are 1, 3 and 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find the expressions whose simplified form is a rational number.

Rational number: If a number is defined in the form of p/q where p and q are integers and q≠0, then it is called a rational number.

For example: 0,2, 4.3 etc.

Irrational number: If a number can not defined in the form of p/q, where p and q are integers and q≠0, then it is called an irrational number.

First expression is

$2\sqrt{9}\cdot \sqrt{4}=2(3)\cdot (2)\Rightarrow 6\cdot 2=12$

12 is a rational number.

Second expression is

$\sqrt{3}\cdot \sqrt{16}=\sqrt{3}\cdot 4\Rightarrow 4\sqrt{3}$

$4\sqrt{3}$ is an irrational number.

Third expression is

$7\sqrt{3}\cdot \sqrt{3}\Rightarrow 7\cdot 3=21$

21 is a rational number.

Fourth expression is

$\sqrt{5}\cdot \sqrt{5}=5$

5 is a rational number.

Therefore, the correct options are 1, 3 and 4.

Suppose that a cyclist began a 374 mi ride across a state at the western edge of the state, at the same time that a car traveli

kherson [118]

This is the concept of relative speed; We are required to calculate the speed of the car and the bicycle.
Distance between the car and Bicycle=374 miles
Time they met=5.5 hr
Speed traveled by bicycle=x
Speed traveled by car=x+33.4334
Relative speed=x+(x+33.4334)=(2x+33.4334) mph
Distance=speed*time
374=(2x+33.4334)*5.5
374=11x+183.8837
collecting like term we get:
374-183.8837=11x
11x=190.1163
thus;
x=(190.1163)/(11)
x=17.2833 mph
thus the speed of the bicycle was x=17.2833 mph
The speed of the car was (x+33.4334)=(17.2833+33.4334)=50.7167 mph
