\large\bf{\underline\red{Good \: Afternoon♡}}

Normal-travel DATA:

distance = 240 km

rate = x km/h

time = d/r

= 240/x hrs

_______________________

Bad weather DATA:

distance = 240 km

rate = (x-20) km/h

time = 240/(x-20) hrs

______________________

Bad time - normal time = 2 hrs

240/(x-20) - 240/x = 2

120/(x-20) - 120/x = 1

120x -120(x-20) = x(x-20)

20 = x^2 -20x

x^2 - 20x - 20 = 0

x = [20 +- sqrt(20^2 - 4*1*-20)]/2

x = [20 +- sqrt(480)]/2

x = [20 +- 4sqrt(30)]/2

x = 10 +- 2sqrt(30)

PLS PLS. send me the answer for the first question with an explanation. due tmrw so quick.​
otez555 [7]

Answer:

85 nails

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to calculate the volume of a single nail. It consists of a circular cylinder and hemispherical part.

The volume of the cylinder πr^2 • h. We are given the diameter of the cylinder (14 mm), so radius is half of that (r = 7 mm) and we are given the height (h = 20 mm).

So, the volume of the cylinder is:

V1 = π • 7^2 • 20

V1 = 3077.2 mm^3

Now for the volume of the hemisphere part. Its volume is half of the sphere:

V2 = (4/3 • πr^3) / 2

Diameter of the sphere is given and it is 21 mm, so the radius is 10.5 mm. So, the volume is:

V2 = (4/3 • π • 10.5^3) / 2

V2 = 2423.3 mm^3

So, the volume of the nail is V1 + V2 which is 5500.5 mm^3

Now let's convert volume of the metal used for making nails. It's given that it is 550.55 cm^3 which is 550550 mm^3.

It is also said that 15% of the volume is wasted, so we are left with 85% of the volume, which is 550550 • 0.85 and that equals to 467967.5 mm^3. So to find a number of nails made from this volume, we divide:

467967.5 / 5500.5 = 85 nails

Help me asap …………..p
borishaifa [10]

Answer:

1.) Tan C = \frac{12}{5}

2.) Sin Z = \frac{24}{26} or \frac{12}{13} if reduced

3.) Cos A = \frac{15}{17}

4.) Cos A = \frac{12}{37}

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's keep in mind that;

Sin = \frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}

Cos = \frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}

Tan = \frac{opposite}{adjacent}

Hope this helps!
