Two swimmers start out from opposite ends of a swimming pool(red side and blue side). They cross each other for the first time a

t line PQ, which is 21 yards from the red side and 29 yards from the blue side. They reach the opposite ends, turn around and cross again at line RS. Assuming that they both travel at constant speeds, how far is line RS from the blue side? The line RS is to the right of line PQ, which is 21 feet from the red side.

Answer:

13 yds

Step-by-step explanation:

the blue side starter (B) swims 29yd in the time it takes the red side starter (R) to swim 21yd

their combined distance, when they meet, is 50yd (length of pool)

 

they pass each other and continue to the ends of the pool (combined distance, 100yd)

they swim towards each other again, and pass a second time (combined distance, 150yd)

at this point, R has swum 63yd (3*21) -- one length plus 13yd

so RS is 13yd from the blue end

What is the solution of the equation over the complex numbers
denis-greek [22]

<u>Answer:</u>

2i\sqrt{3}

-2i\sqrt{3}

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

x^2 + 12

First set the equation to 0

x^2 + 12

x^2 + 12 = 0

Second, get the 12 on the right side of the equal sign by adding a -12 to each side

x^2 + 12 = 0

x^2 + 12 + (-12) = 0 -12

x^2 = -12

Square root both sides of the equal sign.

x^2 = -12

\sqrt{x^2} = \sqrt{-12}

Take the square root on left sides of the equal sign.

\sqrt{x^2} = \sqrt{-12}

x = \sqrt{-12}

Take the square root on the right side of the equal sign. Remember \sqrt{-1} = i

x = \sqrt{-12}

x = \sqrt{4}*\sqrt{-1}\sqrt{3}}

x = 2i\sqrt{3}

<u>AND</u>

x = -2i\sqrt{3}

Levart [38]

4. Using the given formula, replace t with 8 seconds and multiply:

343 x 8 = 2,744 meters.

5. Domain is the X value, replace x with 1/4 and solve:

1/4^2 + 2 = 2 1/8

y= 2 1/8

I don't know for sure, but there are a bunch of different options. Here they are:

Step-by-step explanation:

1 + 39

2 + 38

3 + 37

4 + 36  

5 + 35

6 + 34

7 + 33

8 + 32

9 + 31

10 + 30

11 + 29

12 + 28

13 + 27

14 + 26

15 + 25

16 + 24

17 + 23

18 + 22

19 + 21

20 + 20

Those are the options of how many volcanoes that they could have visited. They could have visited 23 volcanoes in Alaska and 17 in California. Who knows?

California only has 20 volcanoes, and Alaska has 40, so your answer will be one of these options. Hope this helps!
