Let n = minutes since 12:00 pm when Malory catches up to Dori.

Dori travels
(50 steps/min)*(n minutes) = 50n steps

Malory begins walking at 12:20 pm, so she walks for (n - 20) minutes. She travels
(90 steps/min)*(n - 20  min) = 90n - 1800 steps

Equate the steps traveled by Dori and Malory.
90n - 1800 = 50n
40n = 1800
n = 45 min

The time corresponding to n = 45 min is 12:45 pm

Answer: 12:45 pm

5c squared- d squared+3/2c - 4d...c= -1. d= -4​
riadik2000 [5.3K]

For this case we have the following expression:

5c ^ 2-d ^ 2 + \frac {3} {2} c-4d

We must find the value of the expression when:

c = -1\\d = -4

Substituting we have:

5 (-1) ^ 2 - (- 4) ^ 2 + \frac {3} {2} (- 1) -4 (-4) =\\5 (1) -16- \frac {3} {2} + 16 =\\5-16- \frac {3} {2} + 16 =\\-11- \frac {3} {2} + 16 =\\- \frac {25} {2} + 16 =\\\frac {-25 + 32} {2} =\\\frac {7} {2}

Finally, the value of the expression is:

\frac {7} {2}

ANswer:

\frac {7} {2}

You are looking at the New York ball drop on New Year’s Eve at a distance of 100 m away from the base of the structure. If the b
Fofino [41]

The question is an illustration of related rates.

The rate of change between you and the ball is 0.01 rad per second

I added an attachment to illustrate the given parameters.

The representations on the attachment are:

\mathbf{x = 100\ m}

\mathbf{\frac{dy}{dt} = 2\ ms^{-1}} ---- the rate

\mathbf{\theta = \frac{\pi}{4}}

First, we calculate the vertical distance (y) using tangent ratio

\mathbf{\tan(\theta) = \frac{y}{x}}

Substitute 100 for x

\mathbf{y = 100\tan(\theta) }

\mathbf{\tan(\theta) = \frac{y}{100}}

Differentiate both sides with respect to time (t)

\mathbf{ \sec^2(\theta) \cdot \frac{d\theta}{dt} = \frac{1}{100} \cdot \frac{dy}{dt}}

Substitute values for the rates and \mathbf{\theta }

\mathbf{ \sec^2(\pi/4) \cdot \frac{d\theta}{dt} = \frac{1}{100} \cdot 2}

This gives

\mathbf{ (\sqrt 2)^2 \cdot \frac{d\theta}{dt} = \frac{1}{100} \cdot 2}

\mathbf{ 2 \cdot \frac{d\theta}{dt} = \frac{1}{100} \cdot 2}

Divide both sides by 2

\mathbf{ \frac{d\theta}{dt} = \frac{1}{100} }

\mathbf{ \frac{d\theta}{dt} = 0.01 }

Hence, the rate of change between you and the ball is 0.01 rad per second

My friend sets out walking at a speed of $3$ miles per hour. I set out behind her $5$ minutes later at $4$ miles per hour. When
r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer:  The answer is 0.25 miles.


Step-by-step explanation:  Given that my friend started walking at a speed of 3 miles per hour and I started 5 minutes after him at a speed of 4 miles per hour. We need to find the number of miles my friend travelled when I started walking.

Since I started 5 minutes after than my friend, so we are to find the distance travelled by my friend in 5 minutes.

In 1 hour, i.e., 60 minutes, distance travelled by my friend = 3 miles.

In 1 minute, distance travelled by my friend is

\dfrac{3}{60}=\dfrac{1}{20}~\textup{miles}.

Therefore, distance travelled by my friend in 5 minutes will be

\dfrac{1}{20}\times 5=\dfrac{1}{4}=0.25~\textup{miles}.

Thus, the answer is 0.25 miles.
