Answer:

22 hours (B)

Step-by-step explanation:

John's velocity = 55mph

Sally's velocity = 65mph

John's time taken = x

Sally's time taken = x - 4

since they must cover the same distance.

and, distance = vel × time

Sally's vel × time = John's vel × time

55x = 65(x-4)

55x = 65x - 220

-10x = -220

x = 22 hours.

Therefore, Sally catches up after 22 hours

What inequality describes the weight range of a single nickel
Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

4.806 g ≤ n ≤ 5.194 where n is the mass of a nickle.

Step-by-step explanation:

The problem tells us the weight can vary by .194 g, this means it can be up to .194 lighter and 194 heavier.  Well what value is .194 lighter and .194 heavier?  4.806 and 5.194 respectively.  So that means a nickle can be anywhere in that range, which tells us the inequality.

Find the equation of the line that is perpendicular to 3x + 2y = -2 and goes through the point (6,2)
notka56 [123]
Perpendicular lines have slopes that are inverse reciprocals of each other. That would give you the new slope in your equation. After that plug (6,2) into point slope form and solve to get your final equation.
