Two boys, Shawn and Curtis, went for a walk. Shawn began walking 20 seconds earlier than Curtis. Shawn walked at a speed of 5 fe

et per second. Curtis walked at a speed of 6 feet per second. For how many seconds had Sean been walking at the moment on the two boys had walked exactly the same distance?

Distance = speed * time
for  curtis  d = st = 6t              (where t is the time that he walks)
 sean walks 20 seconds longer than curtis so we have the equation

d = s(t+20) = 5(t+20)

as the distances are the same we have

So sean has walked 100+20 = 2

6t = 5(t+20)
6t = 5t + 100
t = 100
so Sean walks 120 seconds when they had both walked the same distance.

Solve. (K+1)(k-5)=0<br> Explin how to solve ???
Anna71 [15]
Alright remember, if any individual factor on the left side of the equation is equal to 0, the entire expression will be equal to 0. 
k+1=0
k-5=0
Set the first factor equal to 0 and solve
k=-1
Set the next factor equal to 0 and solve
k=5
The final solution is all the values that make (k+1)(k-5)=0 true. 
k=-1, 5

Hope this helped you out :)

3/7 = /12<br> How do I find the answer
guajiro [1.7K]
Cross multiply the denominators by the numerators. In other words, 12 times 3 and 7 times x (x, being our missing number).
We end up with 36 and 7x.
Divide both sides by 7.
36/7x = 5.14
x = 5.14
Hope this helps!

Jane is making a suit which requires 2 5/8 yards for the jacket and 1 3/4 yards for the skirt. What the total amount of material
solmaris [256]

Answer:

4 3/8 yards.

Step-by-step explanation:

2 5/8 = (2*8 + 5)/8 = 21/8.

1  3/4 = (1*4 + 3) / 4 = 7/4.

21/ 8 + 7/4

= 21/8 + (7*2) / (4*2)

= 21/8 + 14/8

= 35/8

= 4 3/8.

What are the holes, VA, domain, HA, and Range of n+8/6n? Please help!!
-BARSIC- [3]

Answer:

We show that f(x) n+8/6n = 6 x n = 0

which flips the n+8/1 = 0+8/0-6= x = 3  this is the range.

For the HA we would work left to right.

x goes to positive or negative infinity and is determined by the highest degree terms of the polynomials in the numerator and the denominator. This particular function has polynomials of degree 0 in both the numerator and the denominator

If say n+8 was n+2 then we would use the 2/-2+3 and get 1 and show the hole as the source;

hole : -2+1 as non equal sign. but not in the case of n+8/6n

-2+1 represents 1/3 symmetry.

We see for n+8/6n  with interpreted back into the zero format minus

-0+8/-0-6 we see there is symmetry and can work on the left side of graph and flip over. Where 0 = n+8 and 1=nx6

Step-by-step explanation:

There would be no way of doing the others unless the exponents had been squared ^2

If they were squared then the domain will be (-infinity -3) parenthesis

union of( -3 -2) union of +2 to negative infinity.

There is not a vertical asymptote as the numerator divides into dominator at point 8 as a decimal.

The holes are then closed.
