Answer:

1.166666 ; 1.4 ; James

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Path from bottom to top = distance = 2 miles

Time taken = distance /speed

James :

To climb up:

Time = 2 / 3 = 2/3 hours

Coming down :

Time = 2 / 4 = 1/2 hours

Total time taken = 2/3 + 1/2 = 1.166666 hours

1.166666 * 60 = 70 minutes

Lucas :

To climb up:

Time = 2 / 2 = 1 hour

Coming down :

Time = 2 / 5 = 2/5 hours

Total time taken = 2/3 + 1/2 = 1.4 hours

1.4 * 60 = 84 minutes

James was faster :

1.166666 < 1.4

2. Two angles have a common vertex but no common side. How can you tell whether the angles are vertical angles?
Maksim231197 [3]

Explanation:

The angles are <em>vertical angles</em> if the opposites of the rays forming one of the angles are the rays forming the other angle.

More formally, if V is the common vertex, and ...

  • R is a point on one of the rays forming Angle 1
  • S is a point on the ray that is the opposite of ray VR
  • T is a point on the other ray forming Angle 1
  • U is a point on the ray that is the opposite of ray VT

Then angle RVT and angle SVU are vertical angles.

___

Another way to say this is that points R, V, S are collinear, as are points T, V, U, and the two angles of interest are RVT and SVU.

If the above conditions cannot be met, then the angles are not vertical angles.

Studentka2010 [4]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  15 in, 36 in, 39 in

Step-by-step explanation:

The Pythagorean theorem tells us that for short side x, the relation is ...

  (2x +9)² = (2x +6)² +x²

  4x² +36x +81 = 4x² +24x +36 +x²

  x² -12x -45 = 0 . . . . . subtract the left-side expression

  (x -15)(x +3) = 0 . . . . factor

  x = 15 . . . . . . . . . . . the positive value of x that makes a factor zero

The side lengths of the triangle are 15 inches, 36 inches, and 39 inches.
