We know that
speed=distance/time
solve for time
time=distance/speed
in this problem
<span>Marco runs at a rate of 6 miles per hour.
</span><span>Fernando funs at a rate of 7.2 miles per hour
Difference=7.2-6=1.2 miles/hour
so
speed=1.2 miles/hour
distance=0.3 miles
time=?
</span>time=distance/speed-----> 0.3/1.2-----> 0.25 hour-----> 0.25*60=15 minutes
<span>
the answer is
0.25 hour (15 minutes)
Alternative Method
Let
x---------> Fernando's distance when Marco is 0.3 miles apart
</span>Fernando funs at a rate of 7.2 miles per hour
<span>for distance =x
time=x/7.2------> equation 1
</span>Marco runs at a rate of 6 miles per hour.
for distance=x-0.30
time=(x-0.30)/6------> equation 2
equate equation 1 and equation 2
7.2*(x-0.3)=6x-----> 7.2x-2.16=6x
7.2x-6x=2.16------> x=2.16/1.2-------> x=1.8 miles
time=x/7.2-----1.8/7.2=0.25 hour
Answer:
8710 units
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>Step 1: Write all the data</em>
Fixed cost: $9000
Average variable cost: 9.3 per unit
Total cost: 90,000
Total units: x
<em>Step 2: Find the total variable cost</em>
Average variable cost is per unit so it has to be multiplied by the number of units to find the total variable cost.
Total variable cost = average variable cost per unit x number of units
Total variable cost = 9.3x
<em>Step 3: Make the formula for finding x</em>
Total cost = total fixed cost + total variable cost
90,000 = 9000 + 9.3x
81000 = 9.3x
x = 8709.67
Rounded off to 8710 units

Answer:
0.638 KGs or 638 grams
Step-by-step explanation:
as we know 1000grams = 1 kilogram
therefore the weight of basketball :
11*58/1000 = 0.638 KGs
Answer:
the solution is given by s=9 because it makes the value of 3s+12 equal to 21
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
-8x^12
Step-by-step explanation:
When you have an exponent outside of parenthesis, it is raising everything in the parenthesis to that exponent (in this case, the third). The first step to solve this is to multiply the exponents in the parenthesis by 3. This is called the power of a power rule.
-2 is being raised to the first power. 1x3 = 3, and x is being raised to the fourth power. 4x3 = 12, so you now have:
-2^3x^12
You can simplify -2^3: -2 x -2 x -2 = -8
This leaves you with -8x^12
You can check this by putting -8x^12 and (-2x^4)^3 into a graphing calculator. You know that you simplified correctly if they show the same graphs.
