Answer:

Marta's house is 3.10 miles from Latanya's house

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets explain how to solve the problem

- Latanya leaves her house at 12:30 p.M.

- She bikes at 12 mi/hr to Marta's house

- She stays at Marta's house for 90 minute

- Both girls walk back to latanya's house at 2.5 mi/h

- They arrive at latanya's house at 3:30 p.M.

- We need to know how far is Marta's house from latanya's house

∵ Latanya starts her trip at 12:30 p.M.

∵ She returns her home at 3:30 p.M.

∴ The time of her trip is  → 3:30 - 12:30 = 3 hours

- But she stays at at Marta's house for 90 minutes

∵ 1 hour = 60 minutes

∴ 90 minutes = 90 ÷ 60 = 1.5 hours

∴ The time from her house to Marta's house and from Marta's house

    to her house is → 3 - 1.5 = 1.5 hours

- Assume that the distance from her house to Marta's house is d

  and the time from her house to Marta's house is t_{1},

  the time from Marta's house to her house is t_{2}

∵ Latanya bikes at 12 mi/h to Marta's house

∵ Distance = speed × time

∴ d = 12 × t_{1}

∵ Both girls walk back to latanya's house at 2.5 mi/h

∴ d = 2.5 × t_{2}

- Equate the two expressions of d

∴ 12 t_{1} = 2.5 t_{2} ⇒ (1)

∵ t_{1} + t_{2} = 1.5

- Subtract t_{1} from both sides

∴ t_{2} = 1.5 - t_{1} ⇒ (2)

- Substitute equation (2) in equation (1)

∴ 12 t_{1} = 2.5(1.5 - t_{1})

∴ 12 t_{1} = 3.75 - 2.5t_{1}

- Add 2.5 t_{1} to both sides

∴ 14.5 t_{1} = 3.75

- Divide both sides by 14.5

∴ t_{1} = \frac{15}{58} hour

∴ She spends 15/58 hour to bike to Marta's house

- Lets find d

∵ d = 12 t_{1}

∴ d = 12*\frac{15}{58}=3.10 miles

* <em>Marta's house is 3.10 miles from Latanya's house</em>

irina1246 [14]

Answer:

(2.3 times 10^4) is less than (1.15 times 10^8). That means that every single one of these answer options is wrong. However, If the problem were how many times bigger is 1.15 x 10^8 than 2.3 x 10^4 then the answer would be 5000. So therefore all of these answers are incorrect. I now understand why you are so desperate for this answer!

I'm an idiot. How do you know the difference between a quadratic and exponential equation just by looking at it without a graph?
Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:

It's easy

Step-by-step explanation:

An exponential equation always has x as an exponent so just look for it

Ex:x+2=0(quadratic)                                                                                    Ex:2^x=0(exponential)

Can u guys pls help me with this homework

The value of √(7 * 23 - 1)/8 is 4.47, the values of a, b and c are -14/11, -10/11 and 3, respectively and the area of the shape is 5√5 + 5 square meters

<h3>How to evaluate the radical expression?</h3>

The question goes thus:

If √5 = 2.236, evaluate √(7 * 23 - 1)/8

We have:

√(7 * 23 - 1)/8

Evaluate the product of 7 and 23

√(7 * 23 - 1)/8 = √(161 - 1)/8

Evaluate the difference of 161 and 1

√(7 * 23 - 1)/8 = √160/8

Evaluate the quotient of 160 and 8

√(7 * 23 - 1)/8 = √20

Express 20 as the product 4 and 5

√(7 * 23 - 1)/8 = √(4 * 5)

Expand the product

√(7 * 23 - 1)/8 = √4 * √5

Express √4 as 2

√(7 * 23 - 1)/8 = 2 * √5

Substitute √5 = 2.236

√(7 * 23 - 1)/8 = 2 * 2.236

Evaluate the product

√(7 * 23 - 1)/8 = 4.472

Approximate

√(7 * 23 - 1)/8 = 4.47

Hence, the value of √(7 * 23 - 1)/8 is 4.47

<h3>How to simplify the radical expression?</h3>

The expression is given as:

(3√2 + 5√6)/(3√2 - 5√6)

Rationalize the above expression

(3√2 + 5√6)/(3√2 - 5√6) * (3√2 + 5√6)/(3√2 + 5√6)

Evaluate the product

(3√2 + 5√6)²/((3√2)² - (5√6)²)

Simplify the denominator

(3√2 + 5√6)²/(18 - 150)

This gives

[(3√2)² + (5√6)² + 2 *(3√2) * (5√6)]/(-132)

Simplify the numerator

[168 + 120√3]/(-132)

Simplify the fraction

-14/11 - 10√3/11

Hence, the values of a, b and c are -14/11, -10/11 and 3, respectively

<h3>How to determine the area?</h3>

The area is calculated as:

A = 1/2 * (Sum of parallel bases) * Height

So, we have:

A = 1/2 * (4 + 3√5 + 6 - √5) * √5

Evaluate the like terms

A = 1/2 * (10 + 2√5) * √5

Evaluate the product

A = (5 + √5) * √5

Evaluate the product

A = 5√5 + 5

Hence, the area of the shape is 5√5 + 5 square meters
