Answer: at 50 mph, she drove for 4 hours.

at 45 mph, she drove for 2 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let t represent the time that she spent driving at 50 miles per hour.

Taylor took 6 hours to drive home from college for Thanksgiving break. This means that the time that she spent driving at 45 miles per hour is (6 - t) hours.

Distance = speed × time

Distance covered while driving 50 miles per hour is

50t

Distance covered while driving 45 miles per hour is

45(6 - t)

Since the total distance that she drove is 290 miles, it means that

50t + 45(6 - t) = 290

50t + 270 - 45t = 290

50t - 45t = 290 - 270

5t = 20

t = 20/5 = 4

At 45 miles per hour, she drove at

6 - 4 = 2 hours

Find the two smallest possible solutions to part 1a​

<h3>Answer: A. 5/12, 25/12</h3>

============================

Work Shown:

12*sin(2pi/5*x)+10 = 16

12*sin(2pi/5*x) = 16-10

12*sin(2pi/5*x) = 6

sin(2pi/5*x) = 6/12

sin(2pi/5*x) = 0.5

2pi/5*x = arcsin(0.5)

2pi/5*x = pi/6+2pi*n or 2pi/5*x = 5pi/6+2pi*n

2/5*x = 1/6+2*n or 2/5*x = 5/6+2*n

x = (5/2)*(1/6+2*n) or x = (5/2)*(5/6+2*n)

x = 5/12+5n or x = 25/12+5n

these equations form the set of all solutions. The n is any integer.

--------

The two smallest positive solutions occur when n = 0, so,

x = 5/12+5n or x = 25/12+5n

x = 5/12+5*0 or x = 25/12+5*0

x = 5/12 or x = 25/12

--------

Plugging either x value into the expression 12*sin(2pi/5*x)+10 should yield 16, which would confirm the two answers.

A rectangular bathroom tile is 2 1/3 times as wide as it is tall.If the tile is 5cm tall,how wide is it?
Neko [114]
The width of the rectangular bathroom tile is 11 and 2/3 centimeters. Taft is because 2x5 is 10 cm and 1/3x5 is 5/3. 5/3 simplified as a mixed number is 1 and 2/3. 1 and 2/3 combined with 10 is 11 and 2/3 centimeters.
