5n-4 = 6 gives the equation for 5 times #Nathan rode less 4 miles which solves to n = 2
Nathan rode 2 miles. (5*2)-4 = 6   10-4=6 so 2 miles is right

Answer:

Nathan rode his bike 2\ miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x-----> number of miles that Miguel rode his bike

y-----> number of miles that Nathan rode his bike

we know that

x=5y-4 -----> equation A

x=6\ mi -----> equation B

equate equation A and equation B and solve for y

6=5y-4

5y=6+4

5y=10

y=2\ mi

A beam of light from a monochromatic laser shines into a piece of glass. The glass has thickness L and index of refraction n=1.5
boyakko [2]

Additional information to complete the question:

How long does it take for a short pulse of light to travel from one end of the glass to the other?

Express your answer in terms of some or all of the variables f and L. Use the numeric value given for n in the introduction.

T = ___________ s

Answer:

 T = \frac{15}{f}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Thickness og glass = L

Index of refraction n=1.5

Frequency = f

Wavelength = \frac{L}{10}

λ(air) = \frac{L}{10}

λ(glass) = λ(air) / n

             = \frac{\frac{L}{10}}{1.5}

             = \frac{L}{10} * \frac{1}{1.5}

             = \frac{L}{15}

V(glass) = fλ(glass)

              = f * \frac{L}{15}

          T = \frac{L}{V_{glass}} = \frac{15}{f}

A chain has a ribbon tied to it every 2/3 foot. If the chain is 10 2/3 feet long, how many ribbons are tied to the chain??
patriot [66]

Answer:

16 ribbons

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the length of the chain as 10\frac{2}{3} and there is a ribbon tied to it every \frac{2}{3}, we can take the total length of the chain and divide by the measure of \frac{2}{3}:

10\frac{2}{3}=\frac{32}{3}

\frac{\frac{32}{3}}{\frac{2}{3}}=\frac{32}{3}*\frac{3}{2}=\frac{96}{6}=16

When dividing with fractions, we use the rule of 'keep/change/flip' to keep the first fractions, change the operation to multiplication and flip the second fraction.
