Answer:

16.86 ft/s

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

Speed of the carousel, s = 14 rpm

Distance from the carousel, d = 23 ft

To start with, we convert the given speed to revolution per second, so that

s = 14/60 rev/sec

To find the needed speed, we use the formula

v =2πnR, remember that Diameter = 2R, so we substitute D for 2R and get πnD

v = πnD, and we use this to find our needed velocity

v = 3.142 * 14/60 * 23

v = 72.266 * 14/60

v = 16.86 ft/s

Therefore the boy must run at a speed of 16.86 ft/s in order to be able to match the carousel and jump on it

Given that x < 5, rewrite 5x - |x - 5| without using absolute value signs.
arsen [322]

For x, x-5, therefore |x-5|=-(x-5)=-x+5

So, for x, 5x-|x-5|=5x-(-x+5)=5x+x-5=6x-5
