Answer: y = 7.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose that y varies directly with x

That is, y∝x

Convert y∝x to a full equation by introducing a constant k to the right hand side.

Therefore, y = kx

Given that y = 10 and x = 20

Substitute y and x in the equation above. We have;

10 = k(20)

10 = 20k

20k = 10

k = 10/20

k = 0.5

Since k = 0.5, the equation y = kx becomes y = 0.5x

Now, to find y if x = 15, substitute x in equation y = 0.5x

Therefore, y = 0.5(15)

y = 7.5

Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

2×4 is the only one that equals less than 9, 2× 4.5 is 9, 2×5.5 is 11, 2×6 is 12, and the question is trying to get below 9, so 4 is the only answer that can get below 9

Steps to solve:

x - 12 = 40

~Ad 12 to both sides

x = 52

Two children own two-way radios that have a maximum range of 3 miles. One leaves a certain point at 1:00 P.M., walking due north
Grace [21]

Answer:

The answer is 21 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

We use the equation Xf = Xo + vt

1) At 1:00 PM, child one leaves the starting point heading north at a constant velocity of 6 mi/hr or .1 [mi/min] (divide by 60 to convert from [mi/hr] to [mi/min])

2) He walks for 15 minutes before kid 2 starts walking. In 15 minutes he is able to cover 1.5 [mi]

  • x_{1f1} =x_{o} +v_{1} t_{1} \\x_{1f1} =0+.1(15)\\x_{1f1} =1.5 [mi]

3) Now, child 2 starts walking and we know that when the range reaches 3 miles, they won´t be able to communicate. So the sum of the final position of child 1 and child 2 must be 3[mi]

  • Child 1 final position => x_{1f} = x_{1f1} +v_{1} t\\x_{1f} =1.5+v_{1} t
  • Child 2 final position => x_{2f} =0+v_{2} t

4) Sum the equations and equate to 3

  • x_{1f} +x_{2f} =3

5) Substitute the values we already know

  • 1.5+v_{1} t+v_{2}t=3\\ 1.5+.1t+.15t=3\\1.5+.25t=3\\t=\frac{3-1.5}{.25} \\t=6 [min]

6) in 15 + 6 minutes they will be 3miles apart

7) In 21 minutes they will still be able to communicate with one another.
