Answer:
The answer is b. But you asked for the thought process so...
Step-by-step explanation:
Let speed of the 1st trip x miles / hr. and speed of the 2nd trip 3x / hr.
We know that
Speed = Distance/Time.
Or, Time = Distance/Speed.
So, the time taken to cover a distance of 50 miles on his first trip = 50/x hr.
And the time taken to cover a distance of 300 miles on his later trip = 300/3x hr.
= 100/x hr.
So we can clearly see that his new time compared with the old time was: twice as much.
Have a great day :)
Well I THINK triangle ABC is just a stretched out version of triangle DEF.
To find the area of a triangle, you multiply base and height, and divide by 2.
Area of DEF is 6, so that means that (4 * x)/2 = 6.
6*2 = 12....
4 * x = 12........
4 * 3 = 12.
x = 3.
Comparing DEF to ABC: ABC's base is 3 times as long as DEF's. So that means the height must be three times as long.
3*3 = 9.
(12 * 9)/2 =54
The equation that could be solved to find x, the measure of AC is 58 = 1/2(238 -x)
<h3>Circle theorem</h3>
The given diagram shows two intersecting lines tangential to a circle at points A and C.
Using the theorem that states, the measure of the angle at the vertex is equal to the half of the difference of the measure of the intercepted arcs.
Mathematically;
<B = 1/2(arcADC - arcAC)
58 = 1/2(238 -x)
Hence the equation that could be solved to find x, the measure of AC is 58 = 1/2(238 -x)
