Answer: 800 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the actual distance between City C and City​ D be represented by x.

The information given in the question can be formed into an equation as:

1.8 feet / 2.88 feet = 500 miles / x

Cross multiply

1.8 × x = 500 × 2.88

1.8x = 1440

x = 1440/1.8

x = 800

Therefore, the actual distance between City C and City​ D is 800 miles.

The patriot diner sells 2 cheeseburgers and one soda for $11.00 and 3 hamburgersand 2 sodas for $18.00. What is the cost of a ch
kvasek [131]

Answer: the cost of a cheeseburger is $4

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the cost of one cheeseburgers.

Let y represent the cost of one Soda.

The patriot diner sells 2 cheeseburgers and one soda for $11.00. It means that

2x + y = 11 - - - - - - - - - - - 1

She also sells 3 cheeseburgers and 2 sodas for $18.00. It means that

3x + 2y = 18 - - - - - - - - - - -2

Multiplying equation 1 by 3 and equation 2 by 2, it becomes

6x + 3y = 33

6x + 4y = 36

Subtracting, it becomes.

- y = - 3

y = 3

Substituting y = 3 into equation 1, it becomes

2x + 3 = 11

2x = 11 - 3 = 8

x = 8/2 = 4

Find CD, given that point G is the centroid of
andrey2020 [161]

let's recall that a Centroid in a triangle cuts the Medians into a 2:1 ratio, or namely CG : GD are in a 2: 1 ratio, we can also look at it that the side CD is 2/3 of CD whilst GD is 1/3 of CD, so

CG=\cfrac{2}{3}CD\implies 17.7=\cfrac{2CD}{3}\implies 3(17.7)=2CD \\\\\\ \cfrac{3(17.7)}{2}=CD\implies 26.55=CD

A profit of a football club after a takeover is modeled by p(t) = t3 - 14t2 + 20t + 120, which t is the number of years after th
Bogdan [553]
T = 5, so after 5 years
p(t) = t^3 - 14t^2 + 20t + 120

Take derivative to find minimum:
p’(t) = 3t^2 - 28t + 10

Factor to solve for t:
p’(t) = (3t - 2)(t - 5)
0 = (3t - 2)(t - 5)

0 = 3t - 2
2 = 3t
2/3 = t

Plug 2/3 into original equation, this is a maximum. We want the minimum:

0 = t - 5
5 = t

Plug back into original:
5^3 - 14(5)^2 + 20(5) + 120
125 - 14(25) + 100 + 120
125 - 350 + 220
- 225 + 220
p(5) = -5
