Ludmilka [50]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

x = 1 2/3 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use ratios to solve

150 miles          100 miles

---------------- = ---------------

2.5 hours          x hours

Using cross products

150x = 2.5*100

divide each side by 150

150x/150 = 250/150

x = 1 2/3 hours

zhannawk [14.2K]
First you create a proportion (30/100=x/120). After you solve this, next you subtract this answer from 120. Then create a proportion for 40% (40/100=x/120). Then add this number to the first answer you got when you subtracted the answer from your first proportion from 120.

Find the distance between these two points (-1,0), (8,6)
julia-pushkina [17]
The distance formula is the radical (x2-x1)2 + (y2-y1)^2. So for the x value, you subtract (-1) from 8. But be careful. It’s not 8-1. IT’S 8-(-1). Which x value, 9 should be squared. Which it is 81. The y value, you subtract 0 from 6. Which you should have 6 as your y value. Then, again you have to squared it. So, 6^2 is 36. Now that you have both of your x and y value, you have to subtract them again. In order to subtract, you subtract the y value from the x value. In other words, 81-36. The answer should be 45. But 45 is irrational. Because it can’t be rational under the radical form. So to simplified it, you have to find a number that is rational enough to get out from the inside of the radical form. The only number that would work is 9 and 5. So rad 9 is rational because it could escape from the inside. Which it’s 3 once it’s out. But, 5 is irrational and can’t go out. As a result, the answer is 3 rad 5. Or the 3 is outside of the radical form and 5 is the inside.

What ia the angle of AOC and DOE
natulia [17]

(i) Angle AOC would equal 48°, as it is vertically opposite to angle DOB and they are therefore equal.


(ii) Angle DOE would equal 42°. We can see this because angles on a straight line add up to 180°, and 90 + 48 = 138, so we can do 180 - 138 = 42°.


I hope this helps!

The height in feet is modelled by the function below, where the t is in
Sedaia [141]

The object reaches the lowest height at 5 seconds

<h3>How to determine the time?</h3>

The function is given as:

f(t) = -2t² +22t + 6

Differentiate the function

f'(t) = -4t +22

Set to 0

-4t +22 = 0

Subtract 22 from both sides

-4t = -22

Divide both sides by -4

t = 5.5


Remove decimal points

t = 5

Hence, the object reaches the lowest height at 5 seconds
