Answer:he would arrive 0.2 miles faster.

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance = speed × time

Time = distance/speed

William cycles at a sped of 15 miles per hour. He cycles 12 miles from home to school. This means that the time it takes William to get to school from home would be

12/15 = 0.8 hours

If he increases his cycling speed by 5 miles per hour, his new speed becomes

15 + 5 = 20 miles per hour

Therefore, the new time it takes William to get to school from home would be

12/20 = 0.6 hours

The difference in both times is

0.8 - 0.6 = 0.2 hours

Therefore, he would arrive 0.2 miles faster.

A drama class has a total of 40 students. The number of males is 6 more than the number of females. How many males and how many
Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

Females = 17 and males = 23

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

Total no of students in the class = 40

Let no. of females = x

No. of males = 6+x

ATQ,

Total students = males + females

40 = x+6+x

40-6 = 2x

34 = 2x

x = 17

Hence, there are 17 females and (6+17= 23) males.

After 2 hours, there are 1,400 mL of fluids remaining in a patient’s IV. The fluids drip at a rate of 300 mL per hour. Let x be
CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:

y(2) = 1400

Using this condition we got:

1400= -300*2 +b

And solving for b we got:

b= 1400+ 600= 2000

So then our linear function is given by:

y = -300x +2000

Where y is the amount of fluid left and x the number of hours ellapsing

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to set up a linear function like this one:

y = mx+b

Where y is the amount of fluid left, m the slope and b the initial amount. From the info given we know thatm = -300. And we also have the following condition:

y(2) = 1400

Using this condition we got:

1400= -300*2 +b

And solving for b we got:

b= 1400+ 600= 2000

So then our linear function is given by:

y = -300x +2000

Where y is the amount of fluid left and x the number of hours ellapsing
