Jon recently drove to visit his parents who live 280 miles away. On his way there his average speed was 9 miles per hour faster

Luba_88 [7]

Answer:

11 mph and 20 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Represent his average speed going by r1 and his average speed returning by r2. We know that r1 = r2 + 9.

Recall that distance = rate times time, so time = distance / rate.

Time spent going was (280 mi) / r1, or (280 mi) / (r2 + 9 mph).

Time spend returning was (280 mi) / r2.

The total time was 14 hrs, so (280 mi) / (r2 + 9 mph) + (280 mi) / r2 = 14 hrs

Note that there is only one variable here: r2. Find r2, and then from r2, find r1:

Dividing all 3 terms by 14 hrs yields:

20 20

---------- + ----------- = 1

r2 + 9 r2

The LCD here is r2(r2 + 9). Thus, we have:

20r2 (r2 + 9)(r2)

------------------- = 1 or ------------------

(r2 + 9)(r2) (r2 + 9)(r2)

Then 20(r2) = (r2)^2 + 9(r2). This is reducible by dividing all terms by r2:

20 = r2 + 9, or 11 = r2. Then r1 = 11 + 9, or 20.

The two rates were 11 mph and 20 mph.

What is the LCM of x^2+5 and x^2+10x+25?

avanturin [10]

Answer:

(x+5)²(x²+5)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given two functions x²+5 and x²+10x+25, to get their Lowest common factor, we need to to first factorize x²+10x+25

On factorising we have:

x²+5x+5x+25

= x(x+5) +5(x+5

= (x+5)(x+5)

= (x+5)²

The LCM can be calculated as thus

| x²+5, (x+5)²

x+5| x²+5, (x+5)

x+5| x²+5, 1

x²+5| 1, 1

The factors of both equation are x+5 × x+5 × x²+5

The LCM will be the product of the three functions i.e

(x+5)²(x²+5)

This hives the required expression.

NISA [10]

Answer:

y = 3.1x + 11.2

Step-by-step explanation:

Flat rate is the y- intercept b = 11.2

Charge per mile is the slope m = 3.1

<u>The equation is:</u>

y = 3.1x + 11.2

Question : In the given figure , ∆ APB and ∆ AQC are equilateral triangles. Prove that PC = BQ.

lorasvet [3.4K]

Answer:

See Below.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that ΔAPB and ΔAQC are equilateral triangles.

And we want to prove that PC = BQ.

Since ΔAPB and ΔAQC are equilateral triangles, this means that:

$PA\cong AB\cong BP\text{ and } QA\cong AC\cong CQ$

Likewise:

$\angle P\cong \angle PAB\cong \angle ABP\cong Q\cong \angle QAC\cong\angle ACQ$

Since they all measure 60°.

Note that ∠PAC is the addition of the angles ∠PAB and ∠BAC. So:

$m\angle PAC=m\angle PAB+m\angle BAC$

Likewise:

$m\angle QAB=m\angle QAC+m\angle BAC$

Since ∠QAC ≅ ∠PAB:

$m\angle PAC=m\angle QAC+m\angle BAC$

And by substitution:

$m\angle PAC=m\angle QAB$

Thus:

$\angle PAC\cong \angle QAB$

Then by SAS Congruence:

$\Delta PAC\cong \Delta BAQ$

And by CPCTC:

$PC\cong BQ$
