8 seconds
The hardest part of this is setting up the equation -- the calculations are pretty easy.
You're told that the time (needed to go from 0 to 100 MPH) is inversely proportional to the horsepower: what this means is that as horsepower gets larger, time gets smaller. This makes sense since the more horsepower you have, the less time it will take you to get to 100 MPH
You can think of this as:
200 HP = 10 seconds
250 HP = x seconds
You set the equation up as:
250 HP / 200 HP = 10 sec / x sec
Now, just cross multiply and solve:
250 / 200 = 10 / x
250x = (200 x 10)
250x = 2000
x = 2000 / 250
x = 8
So, as you increase the horsepower from 200 to 250, the time decreases from 10 seconds to 8 seconds.
Hope this helps!
Good luck.
1 yard equals three ft so 26 / 3
The factors of 50a³ are 1, 2, 5, 10, 25, 50,
and their products with a, a² and a³ .
The factors of 10a² are 1, 2, 5, 10,
and their products with 'a' and a² .
Their common factors are 1, 2, 5, 10,
and their products with 'a' and a².
Their greatest common factor is 10a² .
(Another way to spot it, easily, is to remember this helpful factoid:
If the smaller number is a factor of the larger number,
then the smaller number is their greatest common factor.
Using the greatest common factor, then . . .
50a³ + 10a² = 10a²(5a + 1) .
Answer:
n/3 - 18
Step-by-step explanation:
"quotient of a number and 3" is n/3, and so
"18 less than the quotient of a number and 3" as an expression is:
n/3 - 18
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
(x-5)2+8 = 92
2x-10+8 = 92
2x = 94
x = 47
