If i read 60 pages in 1 5/12 hours how long will it take me to read 120 pages

Mathematics
1 answer:
zysi [14]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Direct proportion

60: 1 5 /12 = 120 : x

60: 17/12 = 120:x

Product of extremes = product of mean

60*x = (17/2)*120

60*x=\frac{17}{12}*120\\\\60*x=17*10\\\\x=\frac{17*10}{60}\\\\x=\frac{17}{6}\\\\x=2\frac{5}{6}

It will take  2 5/6 hours to read 120 pages

Herman is traveling 125 miles from his house to the beach by car. Herman plans to stop for lunch when the ratio of the distance
aliya0001 [1]

Answer:

250 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

The given distance between the house and the beach is 125 miles.

Let x miles be the distance between the house and the lunch stop.

So, at the time of the lunch stop, he already traveled x miles, the remaining distance is the distance between the lunch stop and the beach.

Let y miles be the remaining distance, so

y=125-x.

Give that the ratio of the distance he has traveled, x, to the distance he still has to travel, y, is 2:3,i.e

x:y=2:3

\Rightarrow \frac x y =\frac 2 3

\Rightarrow \frac {x}{125-x}=\frac 2 3

\Rightarrow 3\times x=2\times(125-x)

\Rightarrow 3\times x=2\times125-2\timesx

\Rightarrow 3 x=250-2x

\Rightarrow 3x-2x=250

\Rightarrow x=250

Hence, the distance traveled by Herman when he stops for lunch is 250 miles.

A = 1/2f(s + z) for s<br><br> Solve the following formula for the specified variable
Marat540 [252]

Step-by-step explanation:

\huge{\mathtt{\red{\underbrace{\overbrace{\pink{\boxed{\boxed{\blue{answer}}}}}}}}}

It is a little unclear when you state the problem what exactly is going on with that fraction. This is a common issue when you try to type up equations. On the right side, you have a fraction bar and then a bunch of stuff after it. We need to clear up what is supposed to be in the numerator and what is supposed to stay in the denominator. This is important not just for typing up questions on the internet to get help but in using your calculator as well. If what the equation means is that both "f" and "q+z" are in the denominator, but then on your calculator you type something 1 / 2 * f * ( q + z ), most calculators (e.g. TI 83/84 and almost any basic or scientific model) will interpret that as meaning only the 2 is on the bottom and the rest is on top.

If you meant the f and the q+z are on top, then Steve's answer is good.

If you meant the f and the q+z are supposed to be on the bottom, then we have a little bit different process.

First, write down the operations that are happening to q, and in what order they happen from inside out, that is, according to the regular PEMDAS rule:

1. z is added

2. 2f is multiplied

3. The result is divided into 1 (as opposed to being divided by 1).

So, to solve for q, we "invert" the order of operations and do the inverse operation of our 3 steps, and also in reverse order.

1. To get the big thing out of the denominator (Step 3), we will multiply both sides by 2f(q+z). Now we have:

C*2f(q+z) = 1, or as we normally write it,

2Cf(q+z) = 1

2. Now we have to adjust our steps just a little bit because we have the *C part too. So we will change Step 2 above to "2Cf is multiplied." We invert that by dividing, so we have:

q+z = 1/[2Cf]. Notice how I put brackets around the entire denominator so it's clear!

3. Finally to invert Step 1 we subtract z:

q = 1/[2Cf] - z

Find the length and width of a rectangle that has the given perimeter and a maximum area. perimeter: 244 meters
MissTica
We know that

[perimeter of rectangle]=2*(<span>length+width)
</span>
Let
x-----------> length
y-----------> width
so
P=2*(x+y)-----------> 244=2*(x+y)-----> x+y=122-------> y=122-x

Area=x*y-------> x*(122-x)----> 122x-x²

find the derivative function and equals to zero

122-2x=0-----> 122=2x----------> x=61 m
y=122-x------> y=122-61---------> y=61 m

<span>the maximum area is given by a square
</span>
the answer is
is a square of side 61 m

Can yah help me with those two question please<br> :(
Maurinko [17]

<em><u>Solution</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>1</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>:</u></em><em><u>-</u></em><em><u> </u></em>

Statement : corresponding angles in similar triangles must be congruent .

Answer : True

<em><u>Solution</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>2</u></em><em><u> </u></em><em><u>:</u></em><em><u>-</u></em><em><u> </u></em>

Statement : The hypotenuse of a right angle triangle has to be opposite of 90 degree .

Answer : True

Reason : We know that the side opposite to largest angle in a triangle is largest . Since in a right angle triangle 90 degree is the largest angle and hypotenuse is the longest side therefore they must be opposite to each other .
