Halle has 10 times as many pages to read for her homework assignment as Janet altogether they have to read 264 pages how many pa

statuscvo [17]

Think of the equation as the 10 times as parts so if Halle read ten times as more than Janet then we do the equation 264/11 because we have to include Janet's part too so Janet read 24, one part of the total while Halle read 240, 10 parts of the total

two bike riders ride around in a circular path. The first rider completes one round in 15 minutes and the second rider completes

katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

Rider 1 does one round in 15 min, and will complete another in each consecutive multiple of 15 min

Rider 2 does one round in 18 min, and will complete another in each consecutive multiple of 18 min

Assuming that they start together, they will complete another round together in a time that is both multiples of 15min and 18 min.

Then we need to find the smallest common multiple between 15 and 18.

To smallest common multiple between two numbers, a and b, is equal to:

a*b/(greatest common factor between a and b).

Now, the greatest common factor between 15 and 18 can be found if we write those numbers as a product of prime numbers, such as:

15 = 3*5

18 = 2*3*3

The greatest common factor is 3.

Then the smallest common multiple will be:

(15*18)/3 = 90

This means that after 90 mins, they will meet again at the starting place.

3. Sam and Tim each have savings accounts. Every month they each put in some of their

Setler [38]

Answer:

$y = 30x +50$ --- Sam

$y = 20x +80$ --- Tim

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Sam Tim

х --- f(x) --------------- g(x)

1 --- 80 --------------- 100

2 --- 110 --------------- 120

3 --- 140 --------------- 140

4 --- 170 -------------- 160

Required

Determine the y value

y value implies the equation of the table

Calculating the equation of Sam

First, we need to take any corresponding values of x and y

$(x_1,y_1) = (1,80)$

$(x_2,y_2) = (4,170)$

Next, we calculate the slope (m)

$m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}$

$m = \frac{170 - 80}{4 - 1}$

$m = \frac{90}{3}$

$m = 30$

Next, we calculate the line equation using:

$y - y_1=m(x-x_1)$

$y - 80 = 30(x - 1)$

$y - 80 = 30x - 30$

Make y the subject

$y = 30x - 30 + 80$

$y = 30x +50$

Calculating the equation of Tim

First, we need to take any corresponding values of x and y

$(x_1,y_1) = (1,100)$

$(x_2,y_2) = (4,160)$

Next, we calculate the slope (m)

$m = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}$

$m = \frac{160 - 100}{4 - 1}$

$m = \frac{60}{3}$

$m = 20$

Next, we calculate the line equation using:

$y - y_1=m(x-x_1)$

$y - 100 = 20(x - 1)$

$y - 100 = 20x - 20$

Make y the subject

$y = 20x - 20+100$

$y = 20x +80$
