1)  Speed = 12mph =12 mi/1 h =12 mi/ 60 min = 1/5 mi/ min 
1 h= 60 min
t =20 min
Distance=speed*time =1/5 *20 (mi/min *min)= 4 mi

2) If he would bike for 15 min
Distance=speed*time 
speed = distance/time = 4mi/15 min =4 mi :(1/4 h)=4*4= 16 mi/h
15 min =1/4 h

Find the value of p if the following pair of equation may have one root common:
Diano4ka-milaya [45]

The value of p if the pair of equations may have one root common is 1.

<h3>What are the roots of the equation?</h3>

Let the equation be ax² + bx + c = 0.

Then the roots of the equation will be

\rm x = \dfrac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4 a c }}{2a}

The equations are given below.

2x² + px - 1 = 0 and 3x² - 2x - 5 = 0

The roots of the equation 3x² - 2x - 5 = 0 will be

3x² - 5x + 3x - 5 = 0

(3x - 5)(x + 1) = 0

x = -1, 5/3

At x = -1, the value of p will be

2(-1)² + p(-1) - 1 = 0

2 - p - 1 = 0

p = 1

The value of p if the pair of equations may have one root common is 1.

More about the roots of the equation link is given below.

Central Park in New York City is shaped like a rectangle. On a map of the park
mariarad [96]

Answer:

6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the coordinate plane, three of the vertices of the rectangle are located at (-1.25, -0.25),

(-1.25, 0.25), and (1.25, 0.25)

The length L of the shape will be:

L = 0.25 - ( - 0.25 )

L = 0.25 + 0.25

L = 0.5

The width of the shape will be:

W = 1.25 - ( - 1.25)

W = 1.25 + 1.25

W = 2.5

Perimeter P = 2L + 2W

Substitute the Length and the width into the formula

P = 2(0.5) + 2(2.5)

P = 1 + 5

P = 6 metres

Therefore, the perimeter of the shape is 6 metres

Find an equation of the plane. The plane that passes through the line of intersection of the planes x − z = 3 and y + 2z = 3 and
IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

x-y-3=0

Step-by-step explanation:

Choose two common points on the line of intersection of the planes x − z = 3 and y + 2z = 3:

  • 1st point: if x=0, then z=-3 and y=3-2z=3+6=9, so the 1st point is (0,-3,9);
  • 2nd point: if x=3, then z=0 and y=3-2z=3-0=3, so the 2nd point is (3,0,3).

The perpendicular plane to the plane x+y-4z=6 is parallel to the vector with coordinates (1,1,-4) (normal vector of the given plane).

Hence, the equation of needed plane is

\left\|\begin{array}{ccc}x-0&y-(-3)&z-9\\3-0&0-(-3)&3-9\\1&1&-4\end{array}\right\|=0\Rightarrow \left\|\begin{array}{ccc}x&y+3&z-9\\3&3&-6\\1&1&-4\end{array}\right\|=0

Thus,

\left\|\begin{array}{ccc}x&y+3&z-9\\3&3&-6\\1&1&-4\end{array}\right\|=0\Rightarrow \\\\-12x-6(y+3)+3(z-9)-3(z-9)+6x+12(y+3)=0\\ \\-6x+6(y+3)=0\\ \\-x+y+3=0\\ \\x-y-3=0
