Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
23550=15000(1+.0475t)
t=12
1) Let x be the original speed that he was driving;
x mph ---> 1.5 hours
x+44 mph --> 2.5 hours
1.5x + 2.5(x+44)=206
1.5x+2.5x+110=206
4x=206-110
4x=96
x=24
Therefore, he was travelling at 24 mph in the fog.
2) Let x be the speed of 1 snail,
The other snail travels at the speed of x+1 cm/min
23x+23(x+1)=391 <-- solve for x
23x+23x+23=391
46x=368
x=368/46
x=8
Therefore one of the snail travels at 8 cm/min while the other goes at 9 cm/min
7) Let x be one crew
Then the other crew would be working at x+0.5
3.2x+3.2(x0.5)=8 <-- solve for x
3.2x+1.6x=8
4.8x=8
x=8/4.8
x=1.6666 or 1.7 miles
Therefore, one of the crew does 1.7 miles per day and the other crew does (0.5*1.7)=0.85 miles
Hope I helped :)
1. To solve this problem, you must apply the formula for calculate the area of the trapezoid, which is:
A=(B+b)h/2
A is the area of the trapezoid (A=69.6 in²).
(B+b) is the sum of the bases of the trapezoid.
h is the height of the trapezoid (h=8.7 in).
2. When you clear the sum of the bases (B+b), you have:
A=(B+b)h/2
2A=<span>(B+b)h
</span><span> (B+b)=2A/h
</span> (B+b)=2(69.6 in²)/(8.7 in)
(B+b)=16 in
3. The problem says that <span>the sum of its legs is equal to the sum of its bases, therefore, the perimeter is:
</span>
Sum of the legs=Sum of the bases (B+b)=16 in
Perimeter=16 in+16 in
Perimeter=32 in
