The graph below describes the journey of a train between two cities

Mathematics

Answer:

200km/h^2, 125km, 62.5km/h

Step-by-step explanation:

For part a) just use the acceleration formula (change in velocity/time). For part b), remember that distance traveled is the area under the graph. This is because displacement is the integral of velocity, meaning that you integrate to find the area (i.e. displacement). Lastly, for part c), just apply speed = distance/time because in this case, acceleration is constant.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To find : Acceleration in first 15 min . Distance between two cities  Average speed of journey

Solution:

Each horizontal block is 1/8 hr = 7.5 min

Each vertical block is 10 km/hr

Time                    Velocity  km/hr

0 Min  ( 0 hr)            0

15 Min (1/4 hr)           50

45 Min (3/4 hr)         50

60 MIn  ( 1 hr)            100

90 Min  ( 3/2 hr)        100

120 Min ( 2hr)            0

Acceleration in first 15 min  (1/4 hr)  =  (50 - 0)/(1/4 - 0)  = 50/(1/4)

= 200  km/h²

Distance between two cities

= (1/2)(0 + 50)(1/4 - 0)  + 50 * (3/4 - 1/4)  + (1/2)(50 + 100)(1 - 3/4)  + 100 * (3/2 - 1) + (1/2)(100 + 0)(2 - 3/2)

=  25/4  + 25 + 75/4   + 50 + 25

= 125

Distance between two cities = 125 km

Average Speed of journey = 125/2  = 62.5  km/hr

Acceleration in first 15 min = 200  km/h²

Distance between two cities = 125 km

Average Speed of journey =  62.5  km/hr

Hope this helps..

What is 14 divided by 7/8
Sliva [168]

Answer:

16

Step-by-step explanation:

You have: 14 / (7/8)

To divide by fractions, all you have to do is take the reciprocal of the second number, aka flip it

so, if you do that, you get 14 * 8/7

14*8=112, and 112/7 is 16

Trapezoid MNPQ is similar to Trapezoid RSTU. What is the length of the "x" on the misside side NP ? Also, what is the length of
ivolga24 [154]

Answer:

x =  15

y =  25

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

See attachment for MNPQ and RSTU

Required

Find x and y

To solve this question, we make use of equivalent ratios of corresponding side lengths.

The ratio of corresponding sides are:

MN : RS

NP : ST

PQ : TU

MQ : RU

From the attachment, we have:

MN : RS \to 18 : 30

NP : ST \to x : 25

PQ : TU \to 15 : y

To solve for x, we equate MN : RS and NP : ST

18 : 30 = x : 25

Express as fraction

\frac{18 }{ 30 }= \frac{x }{ 25}

Make x the subject

x =  25 * \frac{18 }{ 30 }

x =  \frac{25 * 18 }{ 30 }

x =  \frac{450}{ 30 }

x =  15

To solve for y, we equate MN : RS and PQ : TU

18 : 30 = 15 : y

Express as fraction

\frac{18 }{ 30 }= \frac{15 }{ y}

Make y the subject

y = 15 * \frac{30 }{ 18 }

y =  \frac{15 *30}{ 18 }

y =  \frac{450}{ 18 }

y =  25

Adisa borrows $5,000 at 14% interest, compounded twice a year. How much does she owe at the end of 8 years?
N76 [4]

The borrower owes $14,760.82  at the end of 8 years

What is compounding interest?

Compounding interest means that earlier interest would earn more interest in the future alongside the loan principal.

Note that in this case the loan continues to accumulate interest because there no repayments, in other words, the loan balance after 8 years, which comprises of the principal and interest for 8 years can be computed using the future value formula of a single cash flow(the single cash flow is the principal) as shown thus:

FV=PV*(1+r/n)^(n*t)

FV=loan balance after 8 years=unknown

PV=loan amount=$5,000

r=annual interest=14%

n=number of times in a year that interest is compounded=2(twice a year)

t=loan period=8 years

FV=$5000*(1+14%/2)^(2*8)

FV=$5000*(1.07)^16

FV=$5000*2.95216374856541

FV=loan balance after 8 years=$14,760.82

For the linear function f(x) = -2x+1 , find the following
Leya [2.2K]

Given:

The function is:

f(x)=-2x+1

To find:

a. Slope and Y-intercept.

b. Is the function increasing, decreasing, or constant, justify your answer.

c. Graph the function, label x, and y-intercepts.

Solution:

a. We have,

f(x)=-2x+1                  ...(i)

The slope intercept form of a line is:

y=mx+b                    ...(ii)

Where, m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

On comparing (i) and (ii), we get

m=-2,b=1

Therefore, the slope of the line is -2 and the y-intercept is 1.

b. If the slope of a linear function is negative, then the function is decreasing.

If the slope of a linear function is positive, then the function is increasing.

If the slope of a linear function is 0, then the function is constant.

The slope of the linear function is negative.

Therefore, the function is decreasing.

c. We have,

f(x)=-2x+1

At x=0, we get

f(0)=-2(0)+1

f(0)=1

So, the y-intercept is at (0,1).

At f(x)=0, we get

0=-2x+1

2x=1

x=\dfrac{1}{2}

x=0.5

So, the x-intercept is at \left(0.5,0\right).

Plot the points (0,1), \left(0.5,0\right) and connect them by a straight line as shown below:
