$x+y=450$
$5x+3y=1900$

$x=450-y$
$5(450-y)+3y=1900$

$-2y+2250=1900$
$-2y=-350$
$y=175$
$x=275$

A car travels 21 km in 16 minutes. What is its average speed in km/h?

bekas [8.4K]

Answer:

78.6km/h

Step-by-step explanation:

Speed=distance÷time

distance=21km

time=16 minutes(convert into hour by dividing it with 60)

=16÷60=0.267

Speed=21÷0.267=78.65km/h

$speed = \frac{distance }{time}$

$speed = \frac{21}{0.267} = 78.6km(h$

A cat chases a mouse. The cat is originally 4 feet behind the mouse, which is running in the same direction along the same route

Verdich [7]

Step-by-step explanation:

The position of the mouse at time t is 4 + 12t.

The position of the cat at time t is 17t.

When the positions are equal:

4 + 12t = 17t

4 = 5t

t = 0.8

It takes 0.8 seconds.

If an object is dropped from a height of 144 feet, the function h(t)=-16t^2+144 gives the height of the object after t seconds.

shtirl [24]

Answer:

A. 3s

Step-by-step explanation:

The height of the object after t seconds is given by:

$h(t) = -16t^2 + 144$

When will the object hit the ground?

It hits the ground after t seconds, and t is found when $h(t) = 0$ . So

$h(t) = -16t^2 + 144$

$0 = -16t^2 + 144$

$16t^2 = 144$

$t^2 = \frac{144}{16}$

$t^2 = 9$

$t = \sqrt{9}$

$t = 3$

3 seconds, so the correct answer is given by option a.
