To solve this problem, we must recall that the formula for velocity assuming linear motion:

v = d / t

Where,

v = velocity

d = distance

t = time

 

For condition 1: bus travelling on a level road

v1 = d1 / t1

<span>(v2 + 20) = (449 – d2) / 4                        --->1</span>

 

For condition 2: bus travelling on a winding road

v2 = d2 / t2

<span>v2 = d2 / 5                                            --->2</span>

 

Combining equations 1 and 2:

(d2 / 5) + 20 = (449 – d2) / 4

0.8 d2 + 80 = 449 – d2

1.8 d2 = 369

d2 = 205 miles

 

Using equation 2, find for v2:

v2 = 205 / 5

v2 = 41 mph

 

Since v1 = v2 + 20

v1 = 41 + 20

v1 = 61 mph

 

Therefore <span>the average speed on the level road is 61 mph.</span>

Footballs cost $22.00 each. The athletic director has $277.00 in his budget to spend on footballs there is a $13.00 shipping fee
ZanzabumX [31]

Answer:

16

Step-by-step explanation:

x = number of footballs he can order

22*x + 13 (shipping fee) = 277

22x = 264       Subtract 13 from both sides

x = 16               Divide both sides by 22

Our solution is 16 footballs

Sammy's Sandwich Shop has a mean delivery time of 25 minutes with a standard deviation of 2 minutes. Determine the z-score for t
fiasKO [112]

Answer:

 -1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Mean= 25 minutes.

           Standard deviation= 2 minutes

           x= 23 minutes.

Lets find the z-score for the number of sandwiches delivered in less than 23 mins.

Formula: Z-score= \frac{x-mean}{standard\ deviation}

Z-score= \frac{23-25}{2}

⇒ Z-score= \frac{-2}{2}

∴ Z-score will be -1

Hence, -1 is the z-score for the number of sandwiches delivered in less than 23 minutes.

Please solve if you know no trolls please im desparate

The question isn’t equal to 90° it’s equal to 180° because the line is straight it’s not a right angle. so when u equal the whole equation to 180°, you get x=18.75. then plug in the number to find the degree of each.
so angle of department would be 139.25° and angle of gas station would be 40.75°

Marina is solving the equation below by using the multiplicative inverse, or the reciprocal. One-fifth (x minus 2) = 20 By which
miskamm [114]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the equation:

1/5 × (x - 2) = 20

First step to solving the equation is

By multiplying both sides by the value of 5.

That will give,

x - 2 = 100

x = 100 + 2

= 102
