Answer: Marcus's walking speed is 4 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent Marcus's walking speed.

His speed on the bicycle is 6 mi/h faster than his walking speed. This means that his speed on the bicycle would be

x + 6

Time = distance/speed

Time spent by Marcus in walking 1 mile to the library is

1/x

Time spent by Marcus in bicycling 2.5 miles to the sporting good store is

2.5/(x + 6)

Since the time that he spends in walking to the library is about the same time that he spends in bicycling to the sporting good store, then

1/x = 2.5/(x + 6)

Cross multiplying, it becomes

1 × (x + 6) = 2.5 × x

x + 6 = 2.5x

2.5x - x = 6

1.5x = 6

x = 6/1.5 = 4

Please help me Find a, b, and c
zlopas [31]

Answer:

It is A.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve for b, use the 45-45-90 triangle theorem, in which each of the legs is x, so the legs would be 8. The hypotenuse would therefore be 8√2.

So without further solving the answer is A, since it's the only one with 8√2.

However, I will still solve for A and C. Using the 30-60-90 theorem, we have the sides as x, x√3, and 2x. The second longest side is b. Using this, we find a = 4√6 and c to be 4√2

Enter the x-coordinate of the solution to this system of equations
Kitty [74]

Answer:

equation 2into minus 3 into equation 1

8x+ 3y= -28

-3x-3y=18

----------------

5x=10

x =2

put value of y in equation 2

8 into 2+3y=-28

16+3y= -28

3y= -28+16

3y= -12

y= -4

a farmer uses 1/3 of his land to plant cassava 3/5 of the remaining land to plant Maize and the rest vegetables if vegetables co
Rzqust [24]

Answer:

37.5 acres.

Step-by-step explanation:

Fraction of his land  where vegetables are grown

= 1 - 1/3 - 2/3 *3/5

(after taking away 1/3 we get 2/3 and the farmer uses 3/5 of this 2/3 to grow Maize.

= 1 - 1/3 - 6/15              LCD of 3 and 15= 15  so we write:

= 1 - 5/15 - 6/15

= 1 - (5+6)/16

=  1 - 11/15

= 4/15.

4 /15 is equivalent to  10 acres

so  total  area (= 1)  =   10 / 4/15     Invert the 4/15 and multiply:

= 10 * 15/4

=  150/4

= 37.5 acres.

5.1.2 Exam: Semester 2 Exam
Nikolay [14]

Answer:

See attached picture to view the graph

Step-by-step explanation:

Start by analyzing how this average idea works:

If only one member goes to the trip, it will cost him/her $1000+$200 = $1200.

If two members go to the trip, then they will share the cost as per the following: ($1000+ $200 + $200 = $1400) which they will be dividing into two people, thus costing each of them $700.

Notice that the general function that represents such average will be given by: f(x) = \frac{1000+200x}{x}

Plot such function in the two dimensional plane, and you will get the asymptotic behavior shown in the attached image.
