Answer:

a. Jacques will be 46.4m below the surface and his assistant will be 78.1m below the surface.

b. 10 minutes

c. 6 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the equation for Justin's motion be J(x)=-13.9-7.5x (where J(x) is his distance from the surface in metres and x is time in minutes), because he starts off 13.9m below the surface and descends 7.5m every minutes.

Let the equation for the assistant be a(x)=-97.3=+6.4x (where a(x) is his distance from the surface in metres and x is time in minutes), because he starts off 97.3m below the surface and ascends 6.4m every minutes.

J(x)=-13.9-7.5x

J(3)=-13.9-7.5(3)=-13.9-22.5=-36.4

a(x)=-97.3=+6.4x

a(3)=-97.3+6.4(3)=-97.3+19.2=-78.1

a(x)=-97.3=+6.4x

-33.3=-97.3=+6.4x

64=6.4x

x=10

when divers are at the same depth, J(x)=a(x)

J(x)=a(x)

-13.9-7.5x=-97.3=+6.4x

83.4=13.9x

x=6

Answer:

TQ = 10 $\sqrt{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The diagonal divides the square into 2 right triangles with the diagonal being the hypotenuse.

Using Pythagoras' identity in triangle TPQ

TQ² = PQ² + PT²

TQ² = 10² + 10² = 100 + 100 = 200 ( take square root of both sides )

TQ = $\sqrt{200}$ = $\sqrt{100(2)}$ = $\sqrt{100}$ × $\sqrt{2}$ = 10 $\sqrt{2}$

Raisins (x) that sell for $1.60 per pound are mixed with chocolate chips (y) that sell for $2.45 per pound to make 17 pounds of

Rasek [7]

Answer: B) x + y = 17

1.60x + 2.45y = 34

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of x = $1.60 per pound

Cost of y = $2.45 per pound

Total pounds of x and y = 17

Cost per pound of mixture = $2

Total number of pounds of the mixture :

x + y = 17

Since the cost per pound of the mixture = 2

Hence ;

(Cost of x * number of pounds of x) + (Cost of y * number of pounds of y)

(1.60 * x) + (2.45 * y) = (cost per pound of mixture * total number of pounds of the mixture)

1.60x + 2.45y = 2 * 17

1.60x + 2.45y = 34
