Answer:

  (9, 18)

Step-by-step explanation:

If point P is 3/4 of the distance from B to C, it means that ...

  BP/BC = 3/4

  (P - B) = 3/4(C - B) . . . . . . multiply by BC = (C-B)

  P = B + 3/4C -3/4B . . . . . add B

  P = (1/4)B +(3/4)C = (B +3C)/4

  P = ((0, 0) +3(12, 24))/4 = (36, 72)/4 = (9, 18)

The desired point is (9, 18).

__

As we showed, since B = (0, 0), the point is 3/4 of the coordinates of C.

Write an inequality for x that would give this rectangle a perimeter of at least 300ft
Travka [436]

Answer:

The inequality for x is:

x\geq 142

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Width of rectangle = 3 ft

Height or length of rectangle = (x+5) ft

Perimeter is at least 300 ft

To write an inequality for x.

Solution:

Perimeter of a rectangle is given as:

⇒ 2l+2w

where l represents length of the rectangle and w represents the width of the rectangle.

Plugging in the given values in the formula, the perimeter can be given as:

⇒ 2(x+5)+2(3)

Using distribution:

⇒ 2x+10+6

Simplifying.

⇒ 2x+16

The perimeter is at lest 300 ft. So, the inequality can be given as:

⇒ 2x+16\geq 300

Solving for x

Subtracting both sides by 16.

⇒ 2x+16-16\geq 300-16

⇒ 2x\geq284

Dividing both sides by 2.

⇒ \frac{2x}{2}\geq \frac{284}{2}

⇒ x\geq 142   (Answer)

“Ms. Blanco drove her car at a speed of 80 kilometers per hour for 1 1/2 hours, then at a speed of 100 kilometers per hour for 2
lara31 [8.8K]
I’m pretty sure it’s 370 bc
1 and a half hours is 80+40 (40 is half of 80)
and 2 and a half hours, so 100 for each hour.
100+100+50= 250

250+120=370!!

answer : 370 kilometers per hour
