Laura drove 638 miles in 11 hours at the same rate how long would it take her to drive 406 miles

shusha [124]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a d = rt problem; but since it is linear, then proportions will work too. Set up the proportion with miles on top and hours on the bottom:

$\frac{miles}{hrs}:$

Then put the numbers in where they go, keeping in mind that miles goes with miles and hours goes with hours in the ratios, and that our unknown is time (hours):

$\frac{miles}{hrs}:\frac{638}{11}=\frac{406}{x}$ and cross multiply to solve:

638x = 4466 so

x = 7 hrs

The Home Depot has two special lawnmowers for sale this year. The electric mower costs $300 each, and the gas-powered mower cost

spayn [35]

Answer:

300a + 450b ≤ 6000

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Cost of electric mower = $300

Cost of gas mower = $450

Total number of mower = 25

Cost of total mower is at least = $6,000

Find:

Number of each mower equation

Computation:

Number of electric mower = a

Number of gas mower = b

So,

Equations

a + b ≤ 25 ........ Equation 1

300a + 450b ≤ 6000 ....... Equation 1

Will Mark Brainiest!!! Simplify the following:

xz_007 [3.2K]

Answer:

1.B

2.A

3. B

Step-by-step explanation:

1. $\frac{x+5}{x^{2} + 6x +5 }$

We have the denominator of the fraction as following:

$x^{2} + 6x + 5 \\= x^{2} + (1 + 5)x + 5\\= x*x + 1x + 5x + 5*1\\= x ( x + 1) + 5(x + 1)\\= (x + 1) (x + 5)$

As the initial one is a fraction, so that its denominator has to be different from 0.

=> ( $x^{2} +6x+5$ ) ≠ 0

⇔ (x +1) (x +5) ≠ 0

⇔ (x + 1) ≠ 0; (x +5) ≠ 0

⇔ x ≠ -1; x ≠ -5

Replace it into the initial equation, we have:

$\frac{x+5}{x^{2} + 6x +5 } = \frac{x+5}{(x+1)(x+5)}$

As (x+5) ≠ 0; we divide both numerator and denominator of the fraction by (x +5)

=> $\frac{x+5}{x^{2} + 6x +5 } = \frac{x+5}{(x+1)(x+5)} = \frac{1}{x+1}$

So that $\frac{x+5}{x^{2} + 6x +5 } = \frac{1}{x+1}$ with x ≠ 1; x ≠ -5

So that the answer is B.

2. $\frac{(\frac{x^{2} -16 }{x-1} )}{x+4}$

As the initial one is a fraction, so that its denominator has to be different from 0

=> x + 4 ≠ 0

=> x ≠ -4

As $\frac{x^{2}-16 }{x-1}$ is also a fraction, so that its denominator (x-1) has to be different from 0

=> x - 1 ≠ 0

=> x ≠ 1

We have an equation: $x^{2} - y^{2} = (x - y ) (x+y)$

=> $x^{2} - 16 = x^{2} - 4^{2} = (x -4) (x +4)$

Replace it into the initial equation, we have:

$\frac{(\frac{x^{2} -16 }{x-1} )}{x+4} \\= \frac{x^{2} -16 }{x-1} . \frac{1}{x + 4}\\= \frac{(x-4)(x+4)}{x-1}. \frac{1}{x + 4}$

As (x + 4) ≠ 0 (proven above), we can divide both numerator and the denominator of the fraction by (x +4)

=> $\frac{(x-4)(x+4)}{x-1} .\frac{1}{x+4} =\frac{x-4}{x-1}$

So that the initial equation is equal to $\frac{x-4}{x-1}$ with x ≠-4; x ≠1

=> So that the correct answer is A

3. $\frac{x}{4x + x^{2} }$

As the initial one is a fraction, so that its denominator (4x + x^2) has to be different from 0

We have:

(4x + x^2) = 4x + x.x = x ( x + 4)

So that: (4x + x^2) ≠ 0 ⇔ x ( x + 4 ) ≠ 0

⇔ $\left \{ {{x\neq 0} \atop {(x+4)\neq0 }} \right.$ ⇔ $\left \{ {{x\neq 0} \atop {x \neq -4 }} \right.$

As (4x + x^2) = x ( x + 4) , we replace this into the initial fraction and have:

$\frac{x}{4x + x^{2} } = \frac{x}{x(x+4)}$

As x ≠ 0, we can divide both numerator and denominator of the fraction by x and have:

$\frac{x}{x(x+4)} =\frac{x/x}{x(x+4)/x} = \frac{1}{x+4}$

So that $\frac{x}{4x+x^{2} } = \frac{1}{x+4}$ with x ≠ 0; x ≠ -4

=> The correct answer is B
