Step-by-step explanation:

Amount of green clay at the start = 57g + 31g = 88g.

Amouny of green clay used = 88g - 18g = 70g.

Hence 70g of green clay was used during the week.

Ana and Belinda both start down a trail at the same time. Belinda rides her bike at a speed of 10 miles per hour. It takes Belin
dolphi86 [110]

If in one hour Belinda can go 10 miles that means in 30 minutes she can go 5 miles. 60/2=30  10/2=5

If she can go 5 miles is 30 minutes than by doing some simple math she must be able to go 2.5 miles in 15 mins. 30/2=15  5/2=2.5

Meaning that when you add 30+15 you get 45 and when you add the distance she can go in each amount of given time 5+2.5 you get 7.5

  • So the trail has to be 7.5 miles long

I've been stuck on this for so long and I have an exam soon, anybody who can help me :'( ?

(i)  speed = distance / time
so time =  distance / speed
here we have

time t = 1080/x  hours

(ii) return flight  time  = 1080 / (x + 30)  hours

(a)  1080/x - 1080/(x + 30) = 1/2

Multiplying  through by the LCD 2x(x + 30) we get:-

1080*2(x + 30) - 2x*1080 = x(x+30)
2160x + 64800 - 2160x = x^2 + 30x
x^2 + 30x - 64800  = 0

(b)  factoring;  -64800 = 270 * -240  ans 270-240 = 30 so we have

(x + 270)(x - 240) = 0   so x = 240  ( we ignore the negative -270)

So the speed for outward journey is 240 km/hr

(c) time ffor outward flight = 1080 / 240 =  4 1/2  hours

(d) average speed for whole flight = distance / time
   Time for outward journey = 4.5 hours and time for  return journey = d / v
= 1080 / (240+30) =  4 hours
 Therefore the average speed for whole journey =  2160 / 8.5 = 254.1 km/hr

There are 18 cans of peas in a case. Each can of peas is 12 ounces. If a case of peas costs $14.22, what is the unit price per c
Elan Coil [88]

Okay doll so this is how you do it.

The 12 ounces doesn't matter. Its irrelevant.

You divide 14.22 by 18.

And that's all there is to it.

The answer is C. $0.79

line s passes through the points (2,7) and (6,1) line t passes through the point (5,2) and is perpendicular to line s what is th
creativ13 [48]

let's keep in mind that perpendicular lines have <u>negative reciprocal</u> slopes, hmmm what is the slope of line S anyway?

\bf (\stackrel{x_1}{2}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{7})\qquad (\stackrel{x_2}{6}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{1}) \\\\\\ slope = m\implies \cfrac{\stackrel{rise}{ y_2- y_1}}{\stackrel{run}{ x_2- x_1}}\implies \cfrac{1-7}{6-2}\implies \cfrac{-6}{4}\implies -\cfrac{3}{2} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill\\\\ \stackrel{\textit{perpendicular lines have \underline{negative reciprocal} slopes}} {\stackrel{slope}{-\cfrac{3}{2}}\qquad \qquad \qquad \stackrel{reciprocal}{-\cfrac{2}{3}}\qquad \stackrel{negative~reciprocal}{\cfrac{2}{3}}}

so, we're really looking for the equation of a line whose slope is 2/3 and runs through (5,2)

\bf (\stackrel{x_1}{5}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{2})~\hspace{10em} slope = m\implies \cfrac{2}{3} \\\\\\ \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} \textit{point-slope form}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y-y_1=m(x-x_1) \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}\implies y-2=\cfrac{2}{3}(x-5)\implies y-2=\cfrac{2}{3}x-\cfrac{10}{3} \\\\\\ y=\cfrac{2}{3}x-\cfrac{10}{3}+2\implies y=\cfrac{2}{3}x-\cfrac{4}{3}
