Two particles are projected simultaneously towards each other from opposite ends of a straight horizontal tube. One particle tra

vels 97 cm in the 1st 2 seconds, 93 cm in next 2 seconds , 89 cm in another next 2 seconds, etc. The other particle travels 49 cm in the 1st 2 seconds, 47 cm in the next 2 seconds , 45 cm in another next 2 seconds, etc. Find how long it takes for the particles to meet and hence, determine the distances travelled by each particle

Answer:

The problem with this question is that it is missing an important number, which is the length of the tube. Assuming that the tube is 10 meters long (=1,000 centimeters long)

time (in        distance traveled         distance traveled       distance

seconds)     by particle A in cms     by particle B in cms    between both

                                                                                             particles in cms

1                               97                            49                     854

2                               93                            47                     714

What is the ratio of 96:132 in simplest form?
Aleks04 [339]
Treat ast fraction
96/132

Plzz help ... I'm thinking it's either c or d
iren [92.7K]
Looking at the slope of the "best-fit" line, you can see that for every two hours of homework, 15 more points are scored. (compare t=0 to t=2).

For t=5, the line seems to go through 47.5. So for t=7, which is two hours more, you'd expect a score of 47.5+15 = 62.5. 

That answer is in the list, so I'd choose that.

In reality, you would never be able to have any score you like just by putting more hours in, so this can never be a straight line forever...

The difference of a number x and 4 is 3
Kruka [31]
"the difference of a number x and 4": x - 4
"is": =
"3": 3

Combine the terms so that it looks like the sentence numerically:

"the difference of a number x and 4 is 3": x - 3 = 4

x - 3 = 4 is your answer.

To solve for x:

Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Isolate the variable, x. Add 3 to both sides.

x - 3 = 4

x -3 (-3) = 4 (-3)

x = 4 - 3

x = 1

1 is your answer for x.
