Two cable ferries start moving towards each other from shores A and B. When the pass each other for the first time the distance

to shore B is 100 meters. Once they reach their destinations and start traveling back at the same time. When they meet for the second time, the distance to shore A is 50 meters. What is the distance between the shores Aand B?

As there is no information about the speed of the ferries, we can infer that they move at the same speed.
Therefore, we can say that they cross each other at the same point both on their way and on their way back.
Since the "meeting point" is on a streight line in between the two shores, 100 meters from shore B and 50 meters from shore A, the distance between shore A and B will be 100 + 50 = 150 meters.

Hence, the distance between shores A and B is 150 meters.

In science class, the average score on a lab report is 82 points, with all students scoring within 3.2 points of the average. If
nirvana33 [79]

An equation that represents the minimum and maximum scores is; |x - 82| = 3.2.

<h3>How to write an absolute value equation?</h3>

The absolute value function is defined by:

f(x) = x, x ≥ 0.

f(x) = x, x < 0.

It measures the distance of a point x to the origin.

For this problem, the distance between the minimum and the maximum scores and the mean is of 3.2, that is, the difference between these scores x and the mean of 82 is of 3.2, hence the absolute value equation that represents this situation is given by:

|x - 82| = 3.2.

The length of a rectangle is 1 inch less than twice the width. the area is 21 inches^2 what is the length?
ale4655 [162]
Hi.

Formula for area: A = 2l + 2w, where l is the length and w is the width.

Given information:
• l = 2w - 1
• A = 21 in^2

We can plug in our values accordingly and solve for w.

A = 2l + 2w
21 = 2(2w - 1) + 2w
21 = 4w - 2 + 2w
23 = 6w - 2
23 = 6w
3.83 = w

Plug 3.83 for w into 2w - 1 to find length.

2(3.83) - 1
7.66 - 1
6.66

Finally, check your work by plugging your values into the original equation.

21 = 2(6.66) + 2(3.83)
21 = 13.32 + 7.66
21 = 20.98

Answer:
The length is approximately 6.66 inches.
