Answer:

<em>The first bus has covered 2,400 m and the second bus has covered 1,800 m. They are separated by 4,200 m</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Constant Velocity Motion</u>

A bun has a velocity of 20 m/s towards the east. It means it travels 20 meters each second in that direction. Assuming the east direction is positive, the distance traveled by this bus can be calculated as follows:

X1=20*t

Where t is the time in seconds.

Similarly, the distance traveled by the second bus towards the west is:

X2=-15*t

Note the negative sign because the direction points at the negative reference.

After 2 minutes = 120 seconds have passed, the distance of each bus is

X1= 20*120=2,400 m

X2=-15*120 = 1,800 m

They are separated by 2,400-(-1,800) = 4,200 m

The first bus has covered 2,400 m and the second bus has covered 1,800 m. They are separated by 4,200 m

Find the maxmium area of a rectangular plot of land which can be enclosed by rope of length 60 metres​
mario62 [17]

Answer:

225 m²

Step-by-step explanation:

If W is the width of the rectangle, and L is the length, then:

60 = 2W + 2L

A = WL

Use the first equation to solve for one of the variables:

30 = W + L

L = 30 − W

Substitute into the second equation:

A = W (30 − W)

A = 30W − W²

This is a parabola, so we can find the vertex using the formula x = -b/(2a).

W = -30 / (2 × -1)

W = 15

Or, we can use calculus:

dA/dW = 30 − 2W

0 = 30 − 2W

W = 15

Solving for L:

L = 30 − W

L = 15

So the maximum area is:

A = WL

A = (15)(15)

A = 225

In this case u need to divide 10 1/2 by 14 coz theres 14 ones in 14
so 10 1/2 divided by 14 = 0.75
<em>so theres 0.75 sugar in one ounce of drink ;)</em>
