Mia would have purchase 12.30 because 22.30 minus 30.00 equals 12.50

Two bicyclists were racing toward each other when they were 98 miles apart. Three hours later they did not meet yet and the dist

lesya [120]

Let, speed of 1st bicyclist is x.

So, speed of 2nd bicyclist is x-3 .

We know, relative speed when two objects moves towards each other :

$v = x + ( x-3 )\\\\v = 2x - 3$

Now, distance travelled in 3 hours is (98-2) miles .

So,

$2x-3 = \dfrac{96}{3}\\\\2x - 3 = 32\\\\2x = 35\\\\x = 17.5\ mph$

Therefore, speed of bikes are 17.5 mph and 14.5 mph.

Hence, this is the required solution.

Which equation models a line that passes through point (-2,2) And has a slope of -8

trasher [3.6K]

So we will be using $y=mx+b$ form, in which m = slope and b = y-intercept. Since we know the slope (-8), all we need to do is solve for the y-intercept. We can do this by inserting (-2,2) into the equation and solve for b.

$2=-8(-2)+b$

Firstly, do the multiplication: $2=16+b$

Next, subtract 16 on both sides, and your answer will be -14 = b

Using the previous info we have, our equation is y = -8x - 14

8. You are planning to use a ceramic tile design in your new bathroom. The tiles are blue-and-white equilateral triangles. You d

ira [324]

Step 1

Find the area of one equilateral triangle

Applying the law of sines

$Area=\frac{1}{2} *a*b*sin C$

in this problem

a=b=7 cm

C=60 degrees

so

$Area=\frac{1}{2} *7*7*sin 60$

$Area=\frac{1}{2} *49*\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} \\ Area=49*\frac{\sqrt{3}}{4}$ cm²

Step 2

To calculate the area of the hexagon multiply the area of one equilateral triangle by $6$

$Area Hexagon=6*[49*\frac{\sqrt{3}}{4}] \\ Area Hexagon=73.5*\sqrt{3}$ cm²

therefore

the answer is the option

73.5 sqrt 3cm²

Find the product of all real values of r for which 1/2x=r-x/7

Dahasolnce [82]

Answer:

$r = \±\sqrt{14$

$Product = -14$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$\frac{1}{2x} = \frac{r - x}{7}$

Required

Find all product of real values that satisfy the equation

$\frac{1}{2x} = \frac{r - x}{7}$

Cross multiply:

$2x(r - x) = 7 * 1$

$2xr - 2x^2 = 7$

Subtract 7 from both sides

$2xr - 2x^2 -7= 7 -7$

$2xr - 2x^2 -7= 0$

Reorder

$- 2x^2+ 2xr -7= 0$

Multiply through by -1

$2x^2 - 2xr +7= 0$

The above represents a quadratic equation and as such could take either of the following conditions.

(1) No real roots:

This possibility does not apply in this case as such, would not be considered.

(2) One real root

This is true if

$b^2 - 4ac = 0$

For a quadratic equation

$ax^2 + bx + c = 0$

By comparison with $2x^2 - 2xr +7= 0$

$a = 2$

$b = -2r$

$c =7$

Substitute these values in $b^2 - 4ac = 0$

$(-2r)^2 - 4 * 2 * 7 = 0$

$4r^2 - 56 = 0$

Add 56 to both sides

$4r^2 - 56 + 56= 0 + 56$

$4r^2 = 56$

Divide through by 4

$r^2 = 14$

Take square roots

$\sqrt{r^2} = \±\sqrt{14$

$r = \±\sqrt{14$

Hence, the possible values of r are:

$\sqrt{14$ or $-\sqrt{14$

and the product is:

$Product = \sqrt{14} * -\sqrt{14}$

$Product = -14$
