No they did not, to have been working at the same rate it should have taken Heath 90 minutes to complete 18 problems, as 6x3 is 18, you would also multiply the time completed by 3, hope this helps

Kiera : 30/6 = 5 minutes per problem
Heath : 40/18 = 2.22 minutes per problem

They did not work at the same rate....Heath worked faster

Sean tossed a coin off a bridge into the stream below. The path of the coin can be represented by the equation 2 h tt = − 16t^2+
tekilochka [14]

Answer:

It will take 5.61 seconds for the coin to reach the stream.

Step-by-step explanation:

The height of the coin, after t seconds, is given by the following equation:

h(t) = -16t^{2} + 72t + 100

How long will it take the coin to reach the stream?

The stream is the ground level.

So the coin reaches the stream when h(t) = 0.

h(t) = -16t^{2} + 72t + 100

-16t^{2} + 72t + 100 = 0

Multiplying by (-1)

16t^{2} - 72t - 100 = 0

Solving a quadratic equation:

Given a second order polynomial expressed by the following equation:

ax^{2} + bx + c, a\neq0.

This polynomial has roots x_{1}, x_{2} such that ax^{2} + bx + c = a(x - x_{1})*(x - x_{2}), given by the following formulas:

x_{1} = \frac{-b + \sqrt{\bigtriangleup}}{2*a}

x_{2} = \frac{-b - \sqrt{\bigtriangleup}}{2*a}

\bigtriangleup = b^{2} - 4ac

In this question:

16t^{2} - 72t - 100 = 0

So

a = 16, b = -72, c = -100

\bigtriangleup = (-72)^{2} - 4*16*(-100) = 11584

t_{1} = \frac{-(-72) + \sqrt{11584}}{2*16} = 5.61

t_{2} = \frac{-(-72) - \sqrt{11584}}{2*16} = -1.11

Time is a positive measure, so we take the positive value.

It will take 5.61 seconds for the coin to reach the stream.

The perimeter of a rectangle is 140 feet. The length of the rectangle is 6 more than 2 times the width. What is the length of th
Alja [10]
The equations we get are
l = 6 + 2w (We get this from "The length of the rectangle is 6 more than 2 times the width.")
and
2l + 2w = 140 (We get this from the perimeter. Two times the length plus two times the width equals the perimeter of a quadrilateral.)

The first equation can be written as
l - 2w = 6

So now we have
2l + 2w = 140
l - 2w = 6
____________
Add the two equations.
We get 3l = 146

Divide by 3 on both sides.
l = 48\frac{2}{3}

Your answer is 48\frac{2}{3}.

If you roll two four-sided dice numbered 1, 2, 3, and 4), what is the probability that the sum of the dice is 7? Enter a fractio
Anna [14]
The probability that the sum of the dice is 7 is 1/2 because there are only three combinations that result in the sum of 7: (1,6)(2,5) and (3,4). But there are 6 possible outcomes( this is if you don’t add reverse combinations such as 1,6 and 6,1) so the probability would be 3/6 or 1/2
