Answer:

26.4 km/hr

Step-by-step explanation:

Sofia and Diego drive to work.

For Sofia

We convert miles to km

Sofia drives 72 miles in 1.5 hours.

1 mile = 1.6 km

72 miles = x

x = 72 × 1.6 km

x = 115.2 km

We find the speed in km/hr

Speed = Distance /Time

= 115.2km/1.5 hours

= 76.8 km/hr

For Diego

Diego drives 126 km in 2 hour 30 min.

Speed = Distance/Time

Time = 2 hour 30 min = 2.5 hours

Speed = 126km/2.5 hours

= 50.4 km/hr

The difference between their average speeds in km/h is calculated as:

76.8 km/hr - 50.4 km/hr

= 26.4 km/hr

Can anybody show me how to do this half angle identity problem STEP BY STEP? I always seem to be missing something
klio [65]

Answer:   \bold{-\dfrac{7\sqrt2}{10}}

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

It is given that θ is between 270° and 360°, which means that θ is located in Quadrant IV ⇒ (x > 0, y < 0).  Furthermore, the half-angle will be between 135° and 180°, which means the half-angle is in Quadrant II ⇒ cos\ \dfrac{\theta}{2}

It is given that sin θ = -\dfrac{7}{25}  ⇒  y = -7 & hyp = 25

Use Pythagorean Theorem to find "x":

x² + y² = hyp²

x² + (-7)² = 25²

x² + 49 = 625

x²         = 576

      x   =  24    

Use the "x" and "hyp" values to find cos θ:

cos\ \theta=\dfrac{x}{hyp}=\dfrac{24}{25}    


Lastly, input cos θ into the half angle formula:

cos\bigg(\dfrac{\theta}{2}\bigg)=\pm \sqrt{\dfrac{1+cos\ \theta}{2}}\\\\\\.\qquad \quad =\pm \sqrt{\dfrac{1+\dfrac{24}{25}}{2}}\\\\\\.\qquad \quad =\pm \sqrt{\dfrac{\dfrac{25}{25}+\dfrac{24}{25}}{2}}\\\\\\.\qquad \quad =\pm \sqrt{\dfrac{\dfrac{49}{25}}{2}}\\\\\\.\qquad \quad =\pm \sqrt{\dfrac{49}{50}}\\\\\\.\qquad \quad =\pm \dfrac{7}{5\sqrt2}}\\\\\\.\qquad \quad =\pm \dfrac{7}{5\sqrt2}}\bigg(\dfrac{\sqrt2}{\sqrt2}\bigg)\\\\\\.\qquad \quad =\pm \dfrac{7\sqrt2}{10}

Reminder: We previously determined that the half-angle will be negative.

Is the LCM of a pair of numbers ever equal to one of the numbers?
den301095 [7]

Yes.

For example, the LCM of 12 and 36 is 36, because factoring these numbers gives

12 = 2^2 * 3

36 = 2^2 * 3^2

So, to match them, just multiply the twelve by 3, then they're both 36.

A boat took 5 h to travel 60 km up a river, against the current. The return trip took 3 h. Find the speed of the boat in still w
Dafna11 [192]

Answer:

Correct answer: V₁ boat = 16 km/h and V₂ current = 4 km/h

Step-by-step explanation:

If we take speed (velocity) of the boat as V₁ and speed of the current V₂

Let us form equations:

Traveling down the current  V₁ + V₂ = 60/3 = 20 km/h

Traveling against the current  V₁ - V₂ = 60/5 = 12 km/h

V₁ - V₂ = 12

V₁ + V₂ = 20

If we add up the left and right sides of the equations we get:

2 V₁ = 32  =>    V₁ = 32/2 = 16 km/h

from the second equation we get:

V₂ = 20 - V₁ = 20 - 16 = 4 km/h

V₂ = 4 km/h
