Easiest way is if you substitute each point (x,y) into each set of equations and both points work for both equations in the system of equations, then it is the correct answer
Otherwise substitute one equation for y in the other equation:
2x + 6 = x^2 + 5x + 6
-2x - 6. -2x -6
0 = x^2 + 3x. Factor
0 = x (x + 3)
Solve: x = 0. x + 3 = 0. ——> x = -3. Substitute into one original equation to get y value for
y = 2x + 6.
y = 2(0) + 6. y = 2(-3) + 6
y = 6. y = -6 + 6 —-> y = 0
(0 , 6) And. (-3 , 0)
We will be using the formulas:
speed=distance/time
time=distance/speed
distance=speed×time
First let's find out Diane's rate of swimming. We can measure this by finding the slope (y/x) of a given coordinate on the graph. One point is (10,15), so you do 15/10=1.5m/s
Now for Rick's rate of swimming, just take a pair of values from the table. 12.5/10=1.25m/s
By the way m/s is metres per second for this
So at a constant speed of 1.5m/s, Diane swam 150m in 150/1.5= 100 seconds, or 1 minute 40 seconds
And at a constant speed of 1.25m/s, Rick swam 150m in 150/1.25= 120 seconds, or 2 minutes.
So the difference between their two times is 20 seconds
1.)
6% of 38
1% of 38 = 3.8 ( you just move the decimal placement over by one.
1% * 6 = 6%
3.8 * 6 = 6%
3.8 * 6 = 22.8
6% =22.8
2.)
5% of 90
90/5 = 5%
90/5 = 18
18 = 5%
3.)
15/5 = 9/x
15/5 = 3
3 = 9/x
(nine divided by ? is three?....3!)
3 = 9/x(3)
3 = 9/3
3 = 3
x = 3
4.)
1/12 = .8/x
Multiply each side by ten.
1/12 * 10 = 5/6
.8/x * 10 = 8/x
5/6 = 8/x
Cross Multiply (switch the second numbers around)
5x = 6*8
Simplify
5x = 48
Divide both sides by 5 to get x by itself
5x/5 = x
48/5 = 9.6
*Whoo last problem lol*
5.)
A three liter bottle costs $2.97 what is the unit rate.
Well the unit is the object we're talking about, in this case a liter bottle.
The unit rate is how much it costs or is per unit.
Now that that's out of the way...
3L = 2.97
Like the other problems we want to get x by itself, so we'll divide by three)
3L/3 = L
2.97/3 = .99
L = .99
The Unit Rate is $0.99 per liter bottle.
Hope this helped :)
Answer:
11.6 foot
Step-by-step explanation:
Length of the Ladder=12 foot
Distance of the base of the Ladder from the House=3 foot
Since the ladder leans against the wall in a slant position, it is the hypotenuse.
From Pythagoras Theorem,
Hypotenuse ²= Opposite ²+ Adjacent ²
12²=3²+x²
x²= 12²-3²=144-9=135
x=√135=11.61895003862
The Ladder reaches up to a height of 11.6 foot (to the nearest tenth) on the house.
