Answer:
x = 0
Step-by-step explanation:
i) x - 11 + 1 < 15
x - 10 < 15
x < 10 + 15
x < 25
ii) x - 11 + 1 > 15
x - 10 > 15
x > 25
Therefore to compare (i) and (ii)
25 < x < 25
In any case, x = 0
The smallest region that can be photographed is
5*7 = 35 square km
so we want to know how long it takes to zoom out to an area of
35 * 5 = 175 square km.
Notice that the length and width increase at the same rate, 2 km/sec, and they start out with a difference of two, so when the width has increased from 5 to x, the length will have increased from 7 to x+2. At the desired coverage area, then,
x(x+2) = 175
x^2 + 2x = 175
x^2 + 2x + 1 = 176 [completing the square]
(x+1)^2 = 176
x+1 = ±4√11
x = -1 ±4√11
Since a negative value for x is meaningless here, x must be
-1 + 4√11 = about 12.27 km
and the time it took to increast to that value was
(12.27 - 5) km / (2 km/sec) = about 3.63 seconds
Answer:
17
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
31
Step-by-step explanation:
First type of clay required 3 cups of flour per batch
She made 5 batches
5 * 3 = 15
So she used 15 cups of flour for the first type of clay
Second kind of clay required 4 cups of flour per batches
She made 4 batches
4 * 4 = 16
So she used 16 cups of flour for the second type of clay
we now add the total number of cups of flour used for each type of clay
16 + 15 = 31
She used a total of 31 cups of flour
