Civil engineer wants to estimate the maximum number of cars that can safely travel on a particular road at a given speed. He ass

umes that each car is 14 feet long, travels at speed S, and follows the car in front of it at a safe distance for that speed. He finds that the number N of cars that can pass a given spot per minute is modeled by the function
N=(89s)/(14+14(s/17)^2))

At what speed can the greatest number of cars travel safely on that road? Assume that the maximum possible speed of a car is less than 300.

N(s)= \frac{89s}{14+14( \frac{s}{17})^2 }
\\
\\N'(s)= (\frac{89s}{14+14( \frac{s}{17})^2 } )'= \frac{89\times 14(1+( \frac{s}{17})^2)-89s\times  \frac{28}{17} }{14^2(1+( \frac{s}{17})^2)} 
\\
\\N'(s)=0
\\
\\89\times 14(1+( \frac{s}{17})^2)-89s\times  \frac{28}{17}=0
\\
\\1+( \frac{s}{17})^2- \frac{2s}{17} =0
\\
\\289+s^2-34s=0
\\
\\s^2-34s+289=0
\\
\\(s-17)^2=0
\\
\\s=17

two parallel lines are graphed on a coordinate plane.how many of the lines could represent proportional relationship?Explain.
soldi70 [24.7K]

It's not necessary that either one represents a proportional
relationship.  But if either one does, then the other one doesn't. 
They can't both represent such a relationship.

The graph of a proportional relationship must go through
the origin.  If one of a pair of parallel lines goes through
the origin, then the other one doesn't. (If two parallel lines
both went through the origin, then they would both be the
same line.)

A 13 L solution that was 12% vinegar was mixed with a 9 L solution that was 70% vinegar. What is the concentration of the new mi
erastovalidia [21]

Answer:

The concentration is simply 36%

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are concerned with calculating the concentration of a new mixture formed from mixing some liters of each of two vinegar variants of different concentrations.

We proceed as follows;

The concentration of the new solution will contain 12% of 13L vinegar A and 70% of 9L vinegar B

13L of vinegar A will contain 13 * 12% = 13 * 0.12 = 1.56

9L of 70% vinegar B will contain 9 * 70% = 9 * 0.7 = 6.3

Now, the new mixture has a total volume of 13 + 9 = 22L

The concentration of the new mixture will thus be;

(1.56 + 6.3)/22

= 0.357 and that’s approximately 0.36 or simply 36%

If you are at mile marker 100 when you start your trip and mike marker 300 four hours later, where were you after 3 hours (assum
Marysya12 [62]

After 3 hours, you will be on 450 mile marker.

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>step 1:</u> At start, the number in the mile marker is 100

<u>step 2:</u> After 4 hours, the number in the mile marker is 300

<u>step 3:</u> The difference of 300-100= 200. In 4 hours you crossed 200 mile markers.

<u>step 4:</u> Therefore, for 1 hour you can cross= 200/4= 50 mile markers.

For 3 hours, the number of mile markers crossed= 3*50= 150 mile markers.

<u>step 5:</u> After 3 hours, the number in the mile marker will be= 300+150= 450
