ANSWER

72km/h

EXPLANATION

The average speed of the car can be calculated using the formula:

Average Speed=total distance/ total time taken.

The car covers a distance of 108km in 1½ hours.

We substitute the values into the formula to obtain,

$Average \: \: Speed= \frac{108}{1.5}$

$Average \: \: Speed=72 {kmh}^{ - 1}$

Therefore the average speed of the journey is 72km/h

If the vertex of a parabola is (0, 3), what is the axis of symmetry

GREYUIT [131]

Answer:

The equation of the axis of symmetry for this parabola is x = 0.

Step-by-step explanation:

For parabola's, it's axis of symmetry always goes through the vertex of the parabola. In other words, the axis of symmetry is vertical line that goes through the x-coordinate of the vertex.

Now, the vertex is given as (0,3) which is at x = 0, y = 3.

Thus, the vertical line that goes through the x-coordinate of the vertex will be x = 0

Thus, the equation of the axis of symmetry for this parabola is x = 0.

A communications tower is supported by two wires, connected at the same point on the ground. One is attached to the tower at D a

viktelen [127]

Answer:

10.99 m

Step-by-step explanation:

✍️What we are basically asked to solve here is to find the distance between C and D.

To find CD, find the length of BC, and BD. Their difference will give us CD.

Thus, BC - BD = CD.

✍️Finding BC using trigonometric ratio formula:

$\theta = 30 + 10 = 40$

Opposite side = BC = ??

Adjacent side = 42 m

Thus:

$tan(\theta) = \frac{opposite}{adjacent}$

Plug in the values

$tan(40) = \frac{BC}{42}$

Multiply both sides by 42

$tan(40) \times 42 = \frac{BC}{42} \times 42$

$35.24 = BC$

BC = 35.24 m

✍️Finding BD using trigonometric ratio formula:

$\theta = 30$

Opposite side = BD = ??

Adjacent side = 42 m

Thus:

$tan(\theta) = \frac{opposite}{adjacent}$

Plug in the values

$tan(30) = \frac{BD}{42}$

Multiply both sides by 42

$tan(30) \times 42 = \frac{BD}{42} \times 42$

$24.25 = BD$

BD = 24.25 m

✍️How much below the top of the tower is the shorter one attached:

Thus,

BC - BD = CD

35.24 m - 24.25 m = 10.99 m

What's the distance between (0,2) and (0,8)?

N76 [4]

Answer:

6 units

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance between two points can be calculated with the formula

$\boxed{\textcolor{steelblue}{\text{Distance between 2 points}= \sqrt{(y_1 - y_2)^{2} + (x_1 - x_2)^{2} } }}$

However, since (0, 2) and (0, 8) have the same x coordinate of 0, the distance between them is the difference in their y-coordinates.

Distance between (0, 2) and (0, 8)

= 8 -2

= 6 units
