Answer:

880 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

First! We have to establish how many feet the car travels per hour.

60 (number of miles per hour) x 5280 (number of feet in a mile) = 316,800 (number of feet in an hour)

Next, since we know that there are 60 minutes in an hour we are going to divide our "number of feet in an hour" by 60 to get the "number of feet in a minute"

316,800 ÷ 60 = 5280

Once again, we are going to divide our "number of feet in a minute" by 60 to get the "number of feet per second".

5280 ÷ 60 = 88

Finally! We will multiple our "number of feet per second" by 10 to get how many feet the car can travel in 10 seconds.

88 × 10 = 880

So! Our car can travel 880 feet in 10 seconds.

Hope this Helps! :)

Explain why the expression 9x^3+1/2x^2+3x^-1 is not a polynomial

Nastasia [14]

Answer:

The given expression can't be expressed in polynomial form. Hence, it is not a polynomial.

Step-by-step explanation:

P(x,n) is a polynomial of nth degree if it is of the form,

P(x,n) = $a_{0} + a_{1}x + a_{2}x^{2} + a_{3}x^{3} + ......... +a_{n}x^{n}$

where n is a finite positive integer and n ∈ N

and ' $a_{i}$ 's are fixed but otherwise arbitrary constants ∀ i = 0(1)n .

Now, the given expression is,

$9x^{3} + \frac {1}{2x^{2}} + 3x^{-1}$

which doesn't fit in the above form. Hence, it is not a polynomial.

Formulate the situation as a system of inequalities. (Let x represent the number of dinghies the company can manufacture and y r

kirill [66]

Answer:

x (smallest to largest) = 0,45 ,55

y (smallest to largest) = 0,10,40

Step-by-step explanation:

(hours) Dinghy Rowboat Labor Available

Metal Work 2 3 120

Painting 2 2 110

Let x represent the number of dinghies the company can manufacture and y represent the number of rowboats.

So, total hours for metal work = $2x+3y$

So, total hours for Painting = $2x+2y$

So, equation becomes:

$2x+3y\leq 120$

$2x+2y\leq 110$

$x\geq 0$

$y\geq 0$

Plot the inequalities

Refer the attached figure

So, the vertices of the feasible region are (0,40),(45,10) and (55,0)

So, x values are 0 , 45 and 55

x represents the number of dinghies

So, x (smallest to largest) = 0,45 ,55

y values are 40,10,0

y represent the number of rowboats.

So, y (smallest to largest) = 0,10,40
