The travel time between two cities is inversely proportional to the average speed. A train travels between the cities in 3 hours

at an average speed of 65 mph. How long would it take to travel between the cities at an average speed of 80 mph? Round to the nearest tenth if necessary. LABEL!

T = 2.4 hours

Since travel time and average speed are inversely proportional, we can create a function where (time)(speed) = k, where k is some constant number. Since time is 3hrs and average speed is 65mph, and our new speed is 80mph, we can create a new equation since they are both equal to constant k.

Thus, since (65mph)(3h) = k and (80mph)(time) = k,

(65)(3) = (80)(t)

Then, using algebra, we solve for t and get

t = 2.4 hours

What is the volume of soup that will fit in a cylindrical-shaped can with a height that is 2 inches longer than the radius?
trasher [3.6K]

Answer:

V = πr³ + 2πr²

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of a cylinder:

V = πr²h

with radius r and height h = 2 + r:

V = πr²(2 + r) = πr³ + 2πr²

In the late nineteenth century, the scientist Marie Curie performed experiments that led to the discovery of radioactive substan
gtnhenbr [62]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Half life is the time taken by a radioactive substance to reduce of half of its original size

If the half life of radium is 1600, this means that the original radioactive substance N0 have reduced to N0/2 after 1600 years

if we are given N0 = 1000grams

The amount of the substance that will remain after 1600 years will be N0/2 i.e 1000/2 = 500g

<em>Hence 500 grams of radium will be left after 600years</em>

Use the diagram of point O. What is the length of OY to the nearest 10th of an Inch? XZ = 10 and OX= 10
Lady bird [3.3K]

From the diagram above,

XZ = 10 in and OX = 10 in

we are to find length of OY

XZ is a chord and line OY divides the chord into equal length

Hence, ZY=YX= 5 in

Now we solve the traingle OXY

To find OY we solve using pythagoras theorem

(Hyp)^2=(Opp)^2+(Adj)^2

applying values from the triangle above

\begin{gathered} OX^2=XY^2+OY^2 \\ 10^2=5^2+OY^2 \\ 100=25+OY^2 \\ OY^2\text{ = 100 -25} \\ OY^2\text{ = 75} \\ OY\text{ = }\sqrt[]{75} \\ OY\text{ = }\sqrt[]{25\text{ }\times\text{ 3}} \\ OY\text{ = 5}\sqrt[]{3\text{ }}in \end{gathered}

Therefore,

Length of OY =

5\sqrt[]{3}
