6 0

Answer:

33 1/3 or 100/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Note that as you drive 6 miles per hour faster than your friend, you catch up 6 miles every hour. Let t be the number of hours elapsed(defining the variable). So, we want to solve the equation for t: 6t=200(write the equation). This equation might remind you of the d=rt equation. 200(miles) is the distance, 6(mph) is the rate and t(hours) is the time.

Dividing both sides of the equation by 6 gives t=200/6, so t=100/3 or 33 1/3 hours(Solve)

The check is left as an exercise.

Need Help Badly<br>What is the solution
Kamila [148]
Sqrt(1-3x)=x+3
[sqrt(1-3x)]^2=(x+3)^2
1-3x=(x+3)(x+3)
1-3x=x^2+6x+9
-3x=x^2+6x+8
0=x^2+9x+8

The answers are -1 and -8 BUT, we have to plug them back into the original equation to make sure we don't get a negative under the square root sign.

After doing this, we realize that only -1 works, so the answer is x=-1

Sorry that this took forever to answer. I was thinking of a good way to explain this, and if you need any further explanation, message me:)

Best wishes:)

disa [49]

Answer:

the  revenue recognized is $1,275

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the revenue recognized is shown below:

= Number of boxes of strawberries sold to customers × price per box

= 85 boxes × $15

= $1,275

Hence, the  revenue recognized is $1,275

We simply applied the above formula and the same should be considered

Also

= 130 - 85

= 45 boxes would not be recognized as sale is not made
