Answer:

The correct option is;

B. 50 km/h

Step-by-step explanation:

The information given in the question are;

The distance between the two cities = 140 km

The direction of motion of the first car = From A to B (left)

The direction of motion of the second car = From B to A

The time after which both cars meet = 1 hour

The time duration it takes after both cars meet for the second car to reach A = 35 minutes

The total time taken by the second car from city B to city A = The time it takes to meet the first car + The time it takes after meeting the first car to reach city A

∴ The total time taken by the second car from city B to city A = 1 hour + 35 minutes = 60 minutes + 35 minutes = 95 minutes

95 minutes = 95/60 hours = 1⁷/₁₂ hours =  1.58\bar 3 hours

The speed of the second car = Distance/Time = 140 km/(1.58\bar 3 hours) ≈ 88.42 km/h

Therefore, let the distance from A of the point the first car meet the second car = x

Therefore, we have;

The distance from B of the point both cars meet  = (140 - x) km

Given that both cars meet after one hour, we have;

The distance travelled by the second car coming from city B, after one hour = (140 - x) km = Speed of the second car × 1 hour

88.42 km/h × 1 hour = 88.42 km = (140 - x) km

x = 140 - 88.42 ≈ 51.58 km

The distance from A of the point the first car meet the second car = x = 51.58 km

The speed of car A = (The distance from A of the point the first car meet the second car)/(Time it takes both cars to meet)

∴ The speed of the first car = 51.58 km/(1 hour)

The speed of the first car = 51.58 km/h ≈ 50 km/h (Rounding up to the nearest 10th).

During the cold winter months, a sheet of ice covers a lake near the Arctic Circle. At the beginning of spring, the ice starts t
Masja [62]

Answer: The ice sheet's thickness decrease every 6 weeks= 1.5 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

GIven: At the beginning of spring, the ice starts to melt. The variable sss models the ice sheet's thickness (in meters) t weeks after the beginning of spring. s=-0.25t+4

At t=0, s=4

So, Thickness of ice sheet at the beginning = 4 meters

Now at t= 6, we get

s=-0.25(6)+4=-1.5+4=2.5

Thickness of ice sheet after 6 weeks = 2.5 meters

Decrease in thickness = 4 meters - 2.5 meters = 1.5 meters

Hence, the ice sheet's thickness decrease every 6 weeks= 1.5 meters
