Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given 2 similar figures with ratio of sides = a : b, then
ratio of areas = a² : b²
Here ratio of sides = 52 : 68 = 13 : 17 ← in simplest form, thus
ratio of areas = 13² : 17² = 169 : 289 =

<em><u>Slower car</u></em>
r = r
t = 12 hours
d = ?
<em><u>Faster car</u></em>
r = r + 20
t = 8 hours
d = ?
It doesn't matter what the exact distance is. You just have to know that the 2 distances are equal ie going to the mountains from his home is the same distance as going from the mountains to his home.
d = r * t
r * 12 hours = (r + 20)* 8 hours. Remove the brackets on the right
r*12 = 8r + 20*8
r*12 = 8*r + 160
r*12 - 8r = 8r - 8r + 160
4r = 160
r = 40 miles / hour
=================
Slower Ride determines the distance.
d = r*t
d = 40 * 12
d = 480
Check
Use the faster rate (r + 20) = 40 + 20 = 60 mph
60 * 8 = 480. Both distances work out to be the same.
Answer:
a= Apple = 3
b= Banana =5
v= Lollypop=1
Step-by-step explanation:
36 is divided into 2 giving us 18
Let apple=a
Banana=b
Lollypop=c
In the first half
An apple + 3 bananas=18
a+3b=18 (1)
Second half is further divided into 2
That is,
18÷2=9
First half of the second half
3apples=9
3a=9 (2)
Second half of the second half
1 apple + 1 banana + 1 lollypop=9
a+b+c=9 (3)
a+3b=18 (1)
3a=9 (2)
a+b+c=9 (3)
From (2)
3a=9
Divide both sides by 3
a=9/3
a=3
Substitute a=3 into 1
a+3b=18
3+3b=18
3b=18-3
3b=15
Divide both sides by 3
b=15/3
=5
b=5
Substitute the value of a and b into (3)
a+b+c=9
3+5+c=9
8+c=9
c=9-8
c=1
Therefore,
a= Apple = 3
b= Banana =5
v= Lollypop=1
Answer:
A) The 75 is the initial number of cells, and the 2 indicates that the number of cells doubles every minute
Step-by-step explanation:
When x=0 (no minutes have elapsed), the value of the function is ...
f(0) = 75(2^0) = 75(1) = 75 . . . . the initial number of cells
As x increases by 1 (minute), the number of cells is multiplied by 2, so the 2 is the multiplier each minute. It indicates the number doubles. ("double" = "multiply by 2")
x is not defined, but for the function to make any sense, it must represent elapsed minutes.
