.... self explanatory
The smallest region that can be photographed is
5*7 = 35 square km
so we want to know how long it takes to zoom out to an area of
35 * 5 = 175 square km.
Notice that the length and width increase at the same rate, 2 km/sec, and they start out with a difference of two, so when the width has increased from 5 to x, the length will have increased from 7 to x+2. At the desired coverage area, then,
x(x+2) = 175
x^2 + 2x = 175
x^2 + 2x + 1 = 176 [completing the square]
(x+1)^2 = 176
x+1 = ±4√11
x = -1 ±4√11
Since a negative value for x is meaningless here, x must be
-1 + 4√11 = about 12.27 km
and the time it took to increast to that value was
(12.27 - 5) km / (2 km/sec) = about 3.63 seconds
Answer:
$1800
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Approanch
An easy way to calculate one's salary after they recive a raise is to, convert the percent that one's salary is increased into a decimal; divide the percent by 100. Then multiply the increase as a decimal by the original salary, to attain the amount the salary is raised by. Finally add the amount the salary is raised by to the original salary to find the new salary. A quicker way to do this is to convert the percent by the salary is increased into a decimal. Then add 1 to that number. Finally one will multiply that number by the original slary and get the new salary.
2. Solving
Original salary; 1500
Raise; 20%
<u>a. convert the raise as a percent into a decimal, then add 1</u>
20% = 0.2
0.2 + 1 = 1.2
<u>b. multiply the number by the original salary</u>
1.2 * 1500
1800
Because 5/8 + 6/10 is 49/40 and 49/40 is equal to 1 9/40
