Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

120mins

Step-by-step explanation:

Karen mows at 60mins, 1 peice of land

Let Darren mows that 1 peice of land at Xmins

The rate at which Karen mows the land would be 1/60 [takes 60mins for 1 piece]

The rate at which Darren mows the land would be 1/x

The average rate working together on one peice of land will be

the combined time

(1/60) +(1/X) = 1/40

[(1/60) + (1/X)]x40 =1 yard

1/X = 1/40 -1/60=(3-2) /120 =1/120

1/X = 1/120

X=120mins

Darren's takes 120mins

The way she has the equation set up, she is only selling 1 bottle of tea and x bottles of water. So, she basically forgot to put the variable in that represents the number of bottles of tea sold

the way it should be : x = # of bottles of water, and y = # of bottles of tea
1.25x + 1.49y = 100

How fast is the apple traveling when the kinetic energy is 32 joules?
Daniel [21]

Answer

The apple is traveling at 8 meters per second

Explanation

We have the equation that relates the kinetic energy with the velocty:

K=\frac{v^2}{2}

Then, to find thevelocity when the apple has 32, we replace K = 32 j:

\begin{gathered} 32=\frac{v^2}{2} \\ 32\cdot2=v^2 \\ 64=v^2 \\ v=\sqrt{64}=8 \\  \end{gathered}

Thus, the speed of the apple is 8meter per second
