Suppose that you are swimming in a river while a friend watches from the shore. In calm water, you swim at a speed of 1.25 m/s .

The river has a current that runs at a speed of 1.00 m/s.Note that speed is the magnitude of the velocity vector. The velocity vector tells you both how fast something is moving and in which direction it is moving.Part AIf you are swimming upstream (i.e., against the current), at what speed does your friend on the shore see you moving?Express your answer in meters per second.

Answer:

Your friend sees you moving at 0.25 m/s upstream.

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember that relative velocity is the velocity of an object in relation to another object. In this example, your friend sees you moving with respect to the river with a relative velocity (Vr) of:

Vr = Yor Velocity (Vy) - The river Velocity (Vriver) =

Vr = 1.25 m/s - 1 m/s = 0.25 m/s

I hope my answer helped you.

A group of students made tacos for their class lunch. The number of tacos each student made is shown in the table.
nevsk [136]

Answer:

-the ratio of the number of tacos Jackie made to the number of tacos Marta made

-the ratio of the number of tacos Marta made to the number of tacos Manny made

-the ratio of the number of tacos Manny made to the number of tacos Marta made

-the ratio of the number of tacos Vinny and Marta made to the number of tacos Vinny and Evelyn made

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 4 that apply! Jackie and many both made 6 and Marta made 4 so the ratio is 6:4! Vinny and Marty's combined is 6 and Vinny and evelyn's combined is 4 so the ratio is 6:4!

The model represents x2 – 9x + 14. An algebra tile configuration showing only the Product spot. 24 tiles are in the Product spot
klio [65]

I didn't get all the part with the tiles, but here's the general answer:

given a polynomial

p(x)=ax^2+bx+c

we have that x-k is a factor of p(x) if and only if k is a root of p(x), i.e. if

p(k)=ak^2+bk+c=0

So, given the polynomial

p(x)=x^2-9x+14

We can check if x-9 is a factor by evaluating p(9):

p(9)=81-81+14=14\neq 0

So, x-9 is not a factor.

Similarly, we can evaluate p(2),\ p(-5),\ p(-7) to check if x-2,\ x+5,\ x+7 are factors:

p(2)=4-18+14=0,\quad p(-5)=25+45+14=84\neq 0,\quad p(-7)=49+63+14=126 \neq 0

So, only x-2 is a factor of x^2-9x+14

A cake has circumference of 25 1/7 inches. What is the area of the cake? Use 22/7 to approximate π. Round to the nearest hundred
choli [55]

Answer:

50.29 in^2

Step-by-step explanation:

From the circumference we need to find the radius.

Since C = 2*pi*r, r = C / (2*pi).

Here, with C = 25  1/7 in, r = (25  1/7 in) / [ 2(22/7) ], or r = 4 in

The area of the cake is A = pi*r^2, or (here)  A = (22/7)(4 in)^2 = 50.29 in^2
