Sandra normally takes 2 hours to drive from her house to her grandparents' house driving her usual speed. However, on one partic
Rudiy27

Answer:

Her usual driving speed is 38 miles per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that:

s = \frac{d}{t}

In which s is the speed, in miles per hour, d is the distance, in miles, and t is the time, in hours.

We have that:

At speed s, she takes two hours to drive. So

s = \frac{d}{2}

d = 2s

However, on one particular trip, after 40% of the drive, she had to reduce her speed by 30 miles per hour, driving at this slower speed for the rest of the trip. This particular trip took her 228 minutes.

228 minutes is 3.8 hours. So

0.4s + 0.6(s - 30) = \frac{d}{3.8}

So

3.8(0.4s + 0.6s - 18) = d

3.8s - 68.4 = 2s

1.8s = 68.4

s = 38

Her usual driving speed is 38 miles per hour.

Suppose a triangle has two sides of length 3and 4 and that the angle between these two sides is 60. What is the length of the th
tangare [24]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  A.  √13

Step-by-step explanation:

You can make an educated guess and come to the right conclusion.

The triangle is nearly an equilateral triangle. A triangle with two sides 3 and an angle of 60° would have a third side of 3. A triangle with two sides of 4 and an angle of 60° would have a third side of 4.

So, the third side must be between 3 and 4. Here is an evaluation of the answer choices:

__

A -- between 3 and 4, the correct choice

B -- 3, too short

C -- 1.73, too short

D -- more than 4, too long

__

The question can be answered using your triangle solver app on your calculator, or using the Law of Cosines.

  c = √(a^2 +b^2 -2ab·cos(C))

  c = √(3^2 +4^2 -2·3·4·(1/2)) = √(9 +16 -12)

  c = √13 . . . . . length of the side opposite the 60° angle
