formula\ for\ average\ speed= \frac{distance}{time}\\\\
Hector:\\\\
v_H=\frac{8miles}{85\ minutes}\approx0,09\frac{mile}{min}\\\\
Mario:\\\\
v_M=\frac{6miles}{55minutes}=0,1\frac{miles}{min}\\\\
Mario\ has\ faster\ speed.

Since v=d/t
We can change the times from minutes to hours so that the answers will be in mph (but it isn't necessary)
Hectors speed=8/1.42=5.6mph
Marios speed=6/0.92=6.5mph
Therefore mario has the greater average speed.
Hope this helps :-)

Jason and Britton are driving to St. George. Jason got a 20 mile head start and drove an
harina [27]

Answer:

  2 hours, 150 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

The relation between time, speed, and distance can be used to solve this problem. It can work well to consider just the distance between the drivers, and the speed at which that is changing.

<h3>Separation distance</h3>

Jason got a head start of 20 miles, so that is the initial separation between the two drivers.

<h3>Closure speed</h3>

Jason is driving 10 mph faster than Britton, so is closing the initial separation gap at that rate.

<h3>Closure time</h3>

The relevant relation is ...

  time = distance/speed

Then the time it takes to reduce the separation distance to zero is ...

  closure time = separation distance / closure speed = 20 mi / (10 mi/h)

  closure time = 2 h

Britton will catch up to Jason after 2 hours. In that time, Britton will have driven (2 h)(75 mi/h) = 150 miles.

__

<em>Additional comment</em>

The attached graph shows the distance driven as a function of time from when Britton started. The distances will be equal after 2 hours, meaning the drivers are in the same place, 150 miles from their starting spot.

Help please
Len [333]

Answer:

Ques 1)  1440°

Ques 2) 4000

Ques 3) 33

Step-by-step explanation:

Ques 1)

The sum of the measures of the angles in degrees of a polygon with 'n' sides is given by: 180×(n - 2).

Now we have to find the sum of the measures the angles of a polygon with 10 sides.

i.e. n=10

Hence the value of the expression 180×(n-2) when n=10 is given by:

180×(10-2)=180×8=1440.

Hence, the sum of measure of the angles of a polygon with 10 sides is: 1440°.

Ques 2)

The Expression 500v gives the number of points a player earns for completing v voyages in video game.

We are asked to find the number of points earned for completing 8 voyages.

i.e. v=8 the value of 500v will be 500×8=4000.

Hence, 4000 points are earned for completing 8 voyages.

Ques 3)

we have to find the value of the question as given in the figure:

7x+y+16 for x=2 and y=3.

Hence, we find the value of the expression:

7×2+3+16=33.

Hence, the value of the expression is 33.

How do I answer number 3
Greeley [361]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

use the distance formula to find the lengths of all the sides of the triangle, if all of the sides are the same, its an equilateral. If the sides are different in this case it is a right. You can check this by using the Pythagorean theorem. the distance formula is the square root of (x2-x1)^2+(y2-y1)^2

for the coordinates make sure that you don't mix them up, if you pair the wrong coordinates up, it won't work

(x1,y1) (x2,y2)
