Answer:
128 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
The convict has a head start of ...
distance = speed × time
distance = (8 mi/h) × (14 h) = 112 mi
That distance is being closed at a rate that is the difference between the speeds, so ...
64 mi/h -8 mi/h = 56 mi/h
The time it takes the guards to catch the convict will be ...
time = distance/speed
time = (112 mi)/(56 mi/h) = 2 h
The guards and prisoner will be at a distance from the prison of ...
distance = speed × time
distance = (64 mi/h)(2 h) = 128 mi
The convict will be caught 128 miles from the prison.
__
<em>Check</em>
The convict will run an additional (8 mi/h)(2 h) = 16 mi after the guards start pursuit. That, in addition to the 112 miles already run, will total 112+16=128 miles, the same distance the guards travel in that 2 hours.
Answer:
The length of segment QM' = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Q is the center of dilation
Pre-image (original image) = segment LM
New image = segment L'M'
The length of LQ = 4
The length of QM = 3
The length of LL' = 4
The original image was dilated with scale factor = 2
QM' = ?
To determine segment QM', first we would draw the diagram obtained from the given information.
Find attached the diagram
When a figure is dilated, we would have similar shape in thus cars similar triangles.
Segment L'M' = scale factor × length of LM
Let LM = x
L'M' = 2x
Using similar triangles theorem, ratio of their corresponding sides are equal.
QM/LM = QM'/L'M'
3/x = QM'/2x
6x = QM' × x
Q'M' = 6
The length of segment QM' = 6
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
18d + 12
The greatest common factor is 6, So we need to factor out 6
=> 6 ( 3d + 2 ) [Distributive property has been applied and this is the simplest form]
