Answer:

  D.  4 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

The tiger will run (5 mi/h)(2 h) = 10 mi in 2 hours. That will put it 2+10 = 12 miles from Sampson's starting location.

Samson can run 12 miles in time ...

  time = distance/speed = (12 mi)/(3 mi/h) = 4 h

Sampson will get to the tiger's location after 4 hours, just as the tiger is ending its rest period.

__

The graph shows the position of Sampson (red) and the tiger (blue) x hours after the chase starts. The distance (y miles) is measured from Sampson's starting point, assuming the tiger is running away.

V125BC [204]

Answer:

  • E. 5.2 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Need to find the value of t, when h(t) = 0

  • -16t^2 +64t + 100 = 0
  • 4t^2 - 16t - 25 = 0
  • 4t^2 - 2*2t*4 + 16 = 41
  • (2t - 4)^2 = 41
  • 2t - 4 = √41
  • 2t - 4 = 6.4
  • 2t = 10.4
  • t = 5.2

Answer is 5.2 seconds

<u>The answer is none.</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

<h2><u>Because</u></h2><h2><u>Side of the square is greater than breadth of rectangle. </u></h2><h2><u>Answer: How can this be possible? Side of any square cannot be more than breadth of rectangle unless and until the square is bigger than the rectangle.</u></h2><h2><u>Side of the square can be greater than length of triangle:  </u></h2><h2><u>Answer: Not at all possible. How can the length of a square be greater than the length of a rectangle? then the square would no longer have the same sides. And as i said before, squares cant be long unless and until they are bigger than the rectangle.</u></h2>

Dimas [21]
Now, the percentage figures of say, 70%, 95% and so on, we'll use the decimal format of the, thus 70% is just 70/100 or 0.7 and 95% is just 95/100 or 0.95 and so on

so  \bf \begin{array}{lccclll}&#10;&amount&concentration&&#10;\begin{array}{llll}&#10;concentration\\&#10;amount&#10;\end{array}\\&#10;&-----&-------&-------\\&#10;\textit{70\% pure}&x&0.7&0.7x\\&#10;\textit{95\% pure}&y&0.95&0.95y\\&#10;-----&-----&-------&-------\\&#10;mixture&160&0.85&(160)(0.85)&#10;\end{array}

whatever "x" and "y" amounts are, we know, they must add up to 160 pints
thus  x + y = 160

now, whatever the concentrated amount of solute in the mixture, we know they must add up to 160*0.85 or 136

thus   0.7x + 0.95y = 136

thus    \bf \begin{cases}&#10;x+y=160\implies \boxed{y}=160-x\\&#10;0.7x+0.95y=136\\&#10;----------\\&#10;0.7x+0.95\left( \boxed{160-x} \right)=136&#10;\end{cases}

solve for "x", to see how much of the 70% pure juice will be needed

what about "y"?  well, y = 160 - x
