A car is speeding at 9595 miles per hour. How many meters per minute is the vehicle travelling?

1 answer:

4 0

This is the concept of rates, we are required to convert on rate to another. The We have been given a car that is speeding at 9595 mph, we are required to convert this to meters per minute;
Here we proceed as follows;
1 mile= 1609.34 miles/hour
1 hour= 60 min
thus to convert from miles per hour to meters per minute we shall have:
speed=distance/time
our distance will be:
distance=9595*1609.34=15,441,617.3 meters
time=(60*1)=60 minutes
thus;
speed=15,441,617.3/60
speed=257,360.2882 meters per minuts

The radius of a sphere and of a cylinder are the same. The diameter of the sphere and the height of the cylinder are also the sa

emmasim [6.3K]

First we have to know the formula of the volume f each of the solids,

V of sphere = 4/3 pi r^3
Volume of Cylinder = pi r^2(2r)=2pi r^3
Volume of cone = 1/3 pi r^2(r)=1/3 pi r^3

The surest and easiest way we can answer this is actually assigning values. We first assign values to r hence we would get the volume of the sphere and rest of the solids (cylinder and cone). You then compare your answers to that of the sphere, and you should get your answer.

Use substitution to solve the following system of equations. What is the value of y? {3x+2y=12{5x−y=7 A) y = -3B) y = 3C) y = -2

Vlad [161]

Answer

B) y = 3

Step-by-step explanation

Given the system of equations:

$\begin{gathered} 3x+2y=12\text{ \lparen eq. 1\rparen} \\ 5x-y=7\text{ \lparen eq. 2\rparen} \end{gathered}$

Isolating x from equation 1:

$\begin{gathered} 3x+2y-2y=12-2y \\ 3x=12-2y \\ \frac{3x}{3}=\frac{12-2y}{3} \\ x=\frac{12}{3}-\frac{2}{3}y \\ x=4-\frac{2}{3}y\text{ \lparen eq. 3\rparen} \end{gathered}$

Substituting equation 3 into equation 2 and solving for y:

$\begin{gathered} 5(4-\frac{2}{3}y)-y=7 \\ 5\cdot4-5\cdot\frac{2}{3}y-y=7 \\ 20-\frac{10}{3}y-y=7 \\ 20-\frac{13}{3}y=7 \\ 20-\frac{13}{3}y-20=7-20 \\ -\frac{13}{3}y=-13 \\ (-\frac{3}{13})\cdot-\frac{13}{3}y=(-\frac{3}{13})\cdot-13 \\ y=3 \end{gathered}$
