Given:

Speed of Juan = 16 mph

Time traveled = 7 hours

To find:

Total distance traveled

Steps:

Total distance traveled is equal to speed into time traveled,

Total distance = Speed × time traveled

Total distance = 16 × 7

Total distance = 112 miles

Therefore Juan traveled 112 miles in 7 hours at the speed of 16 mph

Happy to help :)

If you need any help, pls feel free to ask

Answer:

112 Miles

Step-by-step explanation:

16 (per hour) for 7 hours

16x7 (we Multiple the speed [since its <em>per hour] </em>the number of hours.)

112

A norman window is constructed by adjoining a semicircle to the top of an ordinary rectangular. Find the dimensions of a norman

Yanka [14]

Answer:

$W\approx 8.72$ and $L\approx 15.57$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

Please find the attachment.

We have been given that a norman window is constructed by adjoining a semicircle to the top of an ordinary rectangular. The total perimeter is 38 feet.

The perimeter of the window will be equal to three sides of rectangle plus half the perimeter of circle. We can represent our given information in an equation as:

$2L+W+\frac{1}{2}(2\pi r)=38$

We can see that diameter of semicircle is W. We know that diameter is twice the radius, so we will get:

$2L+W+\frac{1}{2}(2r\pi)=38$

$2L+W+\frac{\pi}{2}W=38$

Let us find area of window equation as:

$\text{Area}=W\cdot L+\frac{1}{2}(\pi r^2)$

$\text{Area}=W\cdot L+\frac{1}{2}(\pi (\frac{W}{2})^2)$

$\text{Area}=W\cdot L+\frac{\pi}{2}(\frac{W}{2})^2)$

$\text{Area}=W\cdot L+\frac{\pi}{2}(\frac{W^2}{4})$

$\text{Area}=W\cdot L+\frac{\pi}{8}W^2$

Now, we will solve for L is terms W from perimeter equation as:

$L=38-(W+\frac{\pi }{2}W)$

Substitute this value in area equation:

$A=W\cdot (38-W-\frac{\pi }{2}W)+\frac{\pi}{8}W^2$

Since we need the area of window to maximize, so we need to optimize area equation.

$A=W\cdot (38-W-\frac{\pi }{2}W)+\frac{\pi}{8}W^2$

$A=38W-W^2-\frac{\pi }{2}W^2+\frac{\pi}{8}W^2$

Let us find derivative of area equation as:

$A'=38-2W-\frac{2\pi }{2}W+\frac{2\pi}{8}W$

$A'=38-2W-\pi W+\frac{\pi}{4}W$

$A'=38-2W-\frac{4\pi W}{4}+\frac{\pi}{4}W$

$A'=38-2W-\frac{3\pi W}{4}$

To find maxima, we will equate first derivative equal to 0 as:

$38-2W-\frac{3\pi W}{4}=0$

$-2W-\frac{3\pi W}{4}=-38$

$\frac{-8W-3\pi W}{4}=-38$

$\frac{-8W-3\pi W}{4}*4=-38*4$

$-8W-3\pi W=-152$

$8W+3\pi W=152$

$W(8+3\pi)=152$

$W=\frac{152}{8+3\pi}$

$W=8.723210$

$W\approx 8.72$

Upon substituting $W=8.723210$ in equation $L=38-(W+\frac{\pi }{2}W)$ , we will get:

$L=38-(8.723210+\frac{\pi }{2}8.723210)$

$L=38-(8.723210+\frac{8.723210\pi }{2})$

$L=38-(8.723210+\frac{27.40477245}{2})$

$L=38-(8.723210+13.70238622)$

$L=38-(22.42559622)$

$L=15.57440378$

$L\approx 15.57$

Therefore, the dimensions of the window that will maximize the area would be $W\approx 8.72$ and $L\approx 15.57$ .

alex has a 48 mile trail first half of the time he was biking twice as fast as the second half of the time if he spent 4 hours o

Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

16 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Givens:

4 hours total time

48 miles total distance

So our equation should look like this.

48 = 2x(2) + x(2)

Where x = speed second half of trip.

x = 8

x*2 = 16 mph

Derek owns a landscape business. He charges a fixed fee of $30 plus $1 per 1,000 square feet of lawn mowed. Derek's earnings (in

luda_lava [24]

From the given problem statement alone, we can say that the equation relating the area of the lawn mowed and the earnings has a linear relationship. That is because there is a constant increase in the earnings per area which is $1 per 1000 square feet.

Therefore the equation must be in the form of:

y = m x + b

where,

y = is the total earnings

m = is the fee per area = 1 / 1000

x = is the area of the lawn

b = is the fixed fee = 30

Therefore the equation becomes:

y = 0.001 x + 30

Rewriting this in terms for x since we are to find the area:

x = (y – 30) 1000

when y = 204

x = (204 – 30) 1000 = 174,000 square feet

when y = 344

x = (344 – 30) 1000 = 314,000 square feet

when y = 450

x = (450 – 30) 1000 = 420,000 square feet

when y = 482

x = (482 – 30) 1000 = 452,000 square feet

when y = 504

x = (504 – 30) 1000 = 474,000 square feet
