Answer:

2.5 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Divide the travelled miles by the amount of hours to get the travelled miles for one hour. (17 miles in 1 hour) Then divide 42.5 by 17 to get the amount of time it takes to go 42.5 miles. (42.5 miles in 2.5 hours)

Hope this helps!

Use the elimination method to solve the system of equations. 3x+4y=8 X-Y=12

Margarita [4]

STEP 1: Multiply second equation by -3.

After multiplying we have the following system:

3x+4y−3x+3y=8=−36

STEP 2: add the two equations together to eliminate x from the system.

7y=−28

STEP 3: find y

y=−4

STEP 4: substitute the value for y into the original equation to solve for x.

3x+4(−4)=8

x=8

A 4-foot tall child walks directly away from a 12-foot tall lamppost at 2 mph. How quickly is the length of her shadow increasin

xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

The length of the shadow is increasing with the rate of 1.5 feet per sec

Step-by-step explanation:

Let AB and CD represents the height of the lamppost and child respectively ( shown below )

Also, let E be a point represents the position of child.

In triangles ABE and CDE,

$\angle ABE\cong \angle CDE$ ( right angles )

$\angle AEB\cong \angle CED$ ( common angles )

By AA similarity postulate,

$\triangle ABE\sim \triangle CDE$

∵ Corresponding sides of similar triangles are in same proportion,

$\implies \frac{AB}{CD}=\frac{BE}{DE}$

We have, AB = 12 ft, CD = 4 ft, BE = BD + DE = 6 + DE,

$\implies \frac{12}{4}=\frac{6+DE}{DE}$

$12DE = 24 + 4DE$

$8DE = 24$

$DE=3$

Now, the speed of walking = 2 mph = $\frac{2\times 5280}{3600}\approx 2.933\text{ ft per sec}$

Note: 1 mile = 5280 ft, 1 hour = 3600 sec

Thus, the time taken by child to reach at E

$= \frac{\text{Walked distance}}{\text{Walking speed}}$

$=\frac{6}{2.933}$

= 2.045 hours

Hence, the change rate in the length of shadow

$= \frac{\text{Length of shadow}}{\text{Time taken}}$

$=\frac{3}{2.045}$

= 1.5 ft per sec.

14. Given: 5x + 4y = 24, x + 7y= 11; Prove: y= 1 Statements reasons

Semenov [28]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the process of elimination as

5x + 4y = 24

5(x + 7y = 11) —> 5x + 35y = 55

5x + 4y = 24

-(5x + 35y = 55)

—————————

-31y = -31

-31y/-31 = -31/-31

y=1

Select the two values of x that are roots of this equation.

VMariaS [17]

Answer:

x = 2, -3

Step-by-step explanation:

$x^2 + 2x- 6 = 0\\=>x^2 +3x - 2x- 6 = 0\\=>x(x+3) - 2(x +3) = 0\\=> (x-2)(x+3) = 0\\\\$

(x-2) = 0 or (x+3) = 0

x = 2 or x = -3

Thus, two values of x are x = 2, -3

Note: The options given are incorrect.
