Two classmates, Annie and Whitney, plan to meet in the computer lab to type up their research papers. Annie can type at a speed

of 3 pages per hour, whereas Whitney can type 1 page per hour. So far, Annie already has 4 pages typed up, compared to Whitney's 8 pages. Once they sit down and start typing together, the two students will reach the same page count before too long. What will the page count be?

The page count will be 10 when the two students will reach the same count.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Typing speed of Annie = 3 pages per hour

Pages already typed by Annie = 4

Let,

x be the number of hours.

y be the total pages typed.

y = 3x+4     Eqn 1

Typing speed of Whitney = 1 page per hour

Pages already types by Whitney = 8

y = 1x+8    Eqn 2

For same number of pages;

Eqn 1 = Eqn 2

3x+4=1x+8\\3x-1x=8-4\\2x=4

Dividing both sides by 2

\frac{2x}{2}=\frac{4}{2}\\x=2

Putting x=2 in Eqn 1

y=3(2)+4\\y=6+4\\y=10

Putting x=2 in Eqn 2

y=2+8\\y=10

The page count will be 10 when the two students will reach the same count.

A fort had enough food for 80 soldiers for 60 days .How long would the food last if 20 more soliders join after 15 days ?​
andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

The food would last 51 days

Step-by-step explanation:

After 15 days are over, you could say that the 16th day would be as follows -

80 soldiers, food finished in 60 - 15 = 45 days.

If 20 more soldiers arrive, there would be a total of 100 soldiers, so if  80 soldiers can finish their food in 45 days  - 1 soldier can finish = 45 * 80. Respectively,  100 soldiers can consume their food in ( 45 * 80 ) / 100  = 36 days.

As 15 days are already over, adding 36 more days = 51 days

The food would last 51 days if 20 <em>more</em> soldiers join after 15 days

<u><em>There are several possible ways to answer this question, but I hope that explanation helps!</em></u>

The increase in a person’s body temperature T(t), above 98. 6ºF, can be modeled by the function T (t) = StartFraction 4 t Ove
kvv77 [185]

The meaning of the horizontal asymptote for the given function is that;

The horizontal asymptote of y = 0 means that the person’s temperature will approach 98.6ºF as time elapses

We are told the increase in a person's body temperature above 98.6°F can be modeled by the function;

T(t) = 4t/(t² + 1)

Where;

t represents the time elapsed

Now, let us find a way to simplify the function so that t at the numerator is removed.

Thus, we will now have;

4t/(t² + 1) = 4/(t + (1/t))

To get the horizontal asymptote, we have to find the limit of the function as t approaches infinity.

Thus;

Lim t ➡ ∞ gives;

T(∞) = 4 × 1/(∞ + (1/∞))

T(∞) = 4 × 0

T(∞) = 0

This means that y = 0 is the horizontal asymptote of the function.

Thus, in conclusion The horizontal asymptote of y = 0 means that the person’s temperature will approach 98.6ºF as time elapses
