Mathematics

Neko [114]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of hours that Justin works in a week.

Let y represent the total amount that Justin would receive for working for x hours.

Justin earns $8 an hour for the first 40 hours he works and $12 for each additional hour. This means that the total amount that he earns in a week would be

y = 8×40 + 12(x - 40)

y = 320 + 12(x - 40)

If he earns 48 hours in a week, the total amount that he earned would be

320 + 12(48 - 40) = $416

It takes 32 hours for a motorboat moving downriver to get from pier A to pier B. The return journey takes 48 hours. How long doe
lina2011 [118]

Answer:

Time taken by the un powered raft to cover this distance is T = 192.12 hr

Step-by-step explanation:

Let speed of boat = u \frac{km}{hr}

Speed of current = v \frac{km}{hr}

Let distance between A & B = 100 km

Time taken in downstream = 32 hours

32 = \frac{100}{u +v}

u + v = \frac{100}{32}

u + v = 3.125 ------ (1)

Time taken in upstream = 48 hours

48 = \frac{100}{u -v}

u -v = \frac{100}{48}

u - v = 2.084 ------- (2)

By solving equation (1) & (2)

u = 2.6045 \frac{km}{hr}

v = 0.5205 \frac{km}{hr}

Now the time taken by the un powered raft to cover this distance

T = \frac{100}{v}

Because un powered raft travel with the speed of the current.

T = \frac{100}{0.5205}

T = 192.12 hr

Therefore the  time taken by the un powered raft to cover this distance is

T = 192.12 hr

An isosceles triangle with equal sides of 5 inches and a base of 6 inches is inscribed in a circle. What is the radius, in inche
nikklg [1K]
Wow this is a doozy! First you have to figure out what is it you are looking for? If you make a dot in the center of the triangle (which is also the center of the circle) and draw a line from the center to one of the vertices of the triangle you have the radius of the triangle and also of the circle. If you draw all 3 radii from the triangle's center to its vertices, you see you have created 3 triangles within that one triangle.  The trick here is to figure out what your triangle measures are as far as angles go.  If we take the interior measures of those 3 triangles, we get that each one has a measure of 120 (360/3=120). So that's one of your angles, the one across from the side measuring 6. Because of the Isosceles Triangle theorem, we know that the 2 base angles have the same measure because the sides are the same. Subtracting 120 from 180 gives you 60 which, divided in half, makes each of those remaining angles measure 30 degrees. So if we extract that one triangle from the big one, we have a triangle with angles that measure 30-30-120, with the base measuring 6 and each of the other sides measuring 5. If we then split that triangle into 2 right triangles, we have one right triangle with measures 30-60-90. Dropping that altitude to create 2 right triangles not only split the 120 degree angle at the top in half, it also split the base side of 6 in half. So our right triangle has a base of 3 and we are looking for the hypotenuse of that right triangle.  WE have to use right triangle trig for that. Since we have the top angle of 60 and the base of 3, we can use sin60=3/x.  Solving for x we have x=3/sin60 which gives us an x value of 3.5 inches rounded from 3.464. I'm not sure what you mean by a mixed number unless you mean a decimal, but that's the radius of that circle.
