Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Time = 2 hrs + 12 min (10) = 4 hrs.

Cost = 35 + 20*4

Cost = 35+80

Cost = 115

Answer:

  £155

Step-by-step explanation:

We can write the function describing the charges as a composition.

  t(s) = 2 + 12/60s = 2 +s/5 . . . . . hours for s switches

  c(h) = 35 +30h . . . . . . . . . . . . . charge for h hours

Then the charge for s switches is ...

  f(s) = c(t(s)) = 35 +30(2 +s/5) = 35 +60 +6s

  f(s) = 95 +6s . . . . . . . charge for installing s switches

The charge for 10 switches is then ...

  f(10) = 95 +6·10 = 95 +60

  f(10) = 155 . . . . pounds

The electrician should charge her customer £155 for wiring a house with 10 switches.

Two trains started moving at the same time, train A from Boston to New York, and train B from New York to Boston. The distance b
Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

  • <u>After 1.7 hours</u>

Explanation:

<u>1. Calculate the average speed of train B</u>

  • 60mph = 3/4 (s) ⇒ s = 60 (4/3) mph = 80 mph

<u>2. Build a table</u>

When the two trains meet:

Train     Average speed     Distance       time (distance/average speed)

                 mph                            

A                 60                             x                        x/60

B                 80                        240 - x                (240 - x) / 80

<u>3. Write the equation</u>

The time, when the two trains meet, is the same for both trains:

                  \dfrac{x}{60}=\dfrac{240-x}{80}\\ \\ \\ 80x=14,400-60x\\ \\ 80x+60x=14,400\\ \\ 140x=14,400\\ \\ x=14,400/140\\ \\ x=102.85miles

<u>4. Calculate the time:</u>

  • x/60 = 102.86 / 60 = 1.7 hours

The two trains will meet after 1.7 hours

A circle is centered on point B, Points A, C and D lie on its circumference. if ABC measures 46 degrees, what does ADC measures?
den301095 [7]
Answer: 23 degrees

---------------------------------------
---------------------------------------

Explanation:

Using the inscribed angle theorem we can connect the central angle ABC and the inscribed angle ADC. The reason why is because they both cut off the minor arc AC

Angle ABC is given to be 46 degrees, the formula we use is shown below

central angle = 2*(inscribed angle)
angle ABC = 2*(angle ADC)
46 = 2*(angle ADC)
46/2 = 2*(angle ADC)/2 ... divide both sides by 2
23 = angle ADC
angle ADC = 23 degrees

What is 2/5 divided by -1/2 minus 3/2
shutvik [7]

Answer:

-  \frac{23}{10}

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{2}{5}  \div  \frac{ - 1}{2}  -  \frac{3}{2}

➡️ -  \frac{2}{5}  \times 2 -  \frac{3}{2}

➡️ -  \frac{4}{5}  -  \frac{3}{2}

➡️ -  \frac{23}{10}

Several students were asked how many blocks they walk from home to school each day. The results are shown in the line plot. How
serious [3.7K]

Answer:

25 students.

Step-by-step explanation:

A line plot is a simple graph that shows relationship among the values in a data using a number line.

From the line plot, each dot represents a student. While the number on the line shows the number of blocks walk each day by each student.

It can be deduced from the line plot that;

Only 1 student walks through 7 blocks, 2 walk through 5 blocks, 8 walk 4 blocks, 5 walk 3 blocks, 5 walk 2 blocks and 4 walk through 1 block to school each day.

So that;

1 + 2 + 8 + 5 + 5 + 4 = 25

Therefore, the number of students who took part in the survey is 25.
