Mike can build a go cart in 30 days, Jed can build one in 20 days and Erick in 60 days. If all of them share the work, how quick

Gwar [14]

Answer: 10 days

Step-by-step explanation:

Mike: $\frac{x}{30}$

Jed: $\frac{x}{20}$

Erick: $\frac{x}{60}$

Together: $\frac{x}{30}$ + $\frac{x}{20}$ + $\frac{x}{60}$ = 1

60 $(\frac{x}{30}$ + $\frac{x}{20}$ + $\frac{x}{60}$ = 1)

2x + 3x + x = 60

6x = 60

x = 10

A rope is tied to the bottom of a hot air balloon ad shown below The rope makes an angle of 35 with the ground and is 75 ft long

damaskus [11]

Answer:

The answer to your question is 43 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

angle = Ф = 35°

length = 75 ft

height = ?

Process

To solve this problem, use trigonometric functions. The trigonometric function that relates the Opposite side (height) and the hypotenuse (length) is sine.

sin Ф = Height / length

-Solve for height

height = length x sin Ф

-Substitution

height = 75 x sin 35

-Simplification

height = 75 x 0.574

-Result

height = 43 ft

3. What is the slope of the line passing through (15,-5) and (3, -8)?

Andrej [43]

M= -8 - -5/ 3 - 15= -8+5/3-15= -3/-12 = 3/12 = 1/4

The slope is 1/4.
The slope formula is m=y2-y1/x2-x1. I plugged in -8=y2, -5=y1, 3=x2, and 15=x1. Then I solved it.

Mark has 17 coins that are dimes and quarters. The total value of the coins is $2.45. How many dimes does mark have?

seropon [69]

Answer: 12 dimes and 5 quarters

Step-by-step explanation: Let's start this problem by setting up a chart so we can organize our information that we're given in this problem.

Down the left side, we'll have our different types of coins. In this case dimes and quarters. Across the top we'll have our formula which is shown below.

Number of coins · value of each coin = total value

Now let's fill out our chart.

For number of dimes and quarters, we know that mark has a total of 17 dimes and quarters but we don't know how many of each he has. In fact, that's what the problem is asking.

So if we represent our number of dimes as x, we can call our number of quarters 17 - x.

The value of each dime is 10¢ and the value of each quarter is 25¢.

Our total value based on our formula is going to come from the first column times the second column. So the total value of our dimes is x times 10 or 10x and the total value of our quarters is 17 - x times 25 or 25 (17 - x).

Our goal in this problem will be to find x because x represents our number of dimes and the problem asks how many dimes does he have. If we know the number of dimes, we can easily find the number of dimes and we'll have our answer. However, we need an equation in order to find x.

It's important to understand that he information in this equation will always come from the last column of your chart, the total value column. So what do we know about the total value of our dimes and the total value of our quarters?

Well we know that the total value of all of our coins is $2.45. So if we add the total value of our dimes + the total value of our quarters, that should equal $2.45. So below the chart I added an additional box and I put 245 in it. Notice that I wrote 245 in terms of cents because our value of dimes and value of quarters is also written in terms of cents and we need to be constient.

So here's our equation.

10x + 25 (17 - x) = 245.

If we solve this, we get x = 12.

Going back up into our chart, remember that x represents our number of dimes so Mark has 12 dimes. To get his number of quarters, we take 17 - x which is 17 - 12 or 5 quarters and that's our answer.

I have also attached the chart that I have made below.

Use the information frompart a to write an equation representing the number of colories burned each minute while bowling. Let m

Fofino [41]

Answer:

To find the number of calories burned:

Find the Metabolic Equivalent of Task (MET) value of the task.

Calculate the number of calories burned per minute. (MET x body weight in kg x 3.5) / 200.

Multiply the calories burned per minute by the number of minutes of activity.

Now, as per the question, weight is 125 pounds (lb), we will convert the weight in kilogram (kg) which is 1 lb = 0.453 kg, it means 125 lb = 56.7

Now we have to find the MET,

A metabolic equivalent (MET) value is a measurement of the energy cost of a specific physical activity for a specific period of time.

For example. A MET of 1 would be roughly equivalent to a person's energy expenditure from sitting still in a room temperature and not actively digesting food.

As per the Calorie guide value of MET for bowling is 3.9

Now the overall formula is

Calorie Burn (x) = ((MET * body weight in kg * 3.5) / 200) * (Number of minutes) m

x = ((3.9*56.7*3.5)/200) * m

Finally, x = 3.87 m represents the number of calorie burned (x) while bowling m minutes.
