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

3                               89                            45                     580

4                               85                            43                     452

5                               81                            41                     330

How do I convert 7y+5x=(-15) into slope intercept form?
just olya [345]
The slope intercept form is y=mx+b notice y's coefficient is 1
7y+5x=-15
subtracting 5x
7y=-5x-15
dividing by 7
y=(-5/7)x-(15/7)

Easton wants to put a variety of donuts in a display case. The case is large enough to hold 100 donuts. Complete the table below
shutvik [7]

The amounts for each donut are given as follows:

  • Strawberry: 15.
  • Chocolate: 45.
  • Sprinkle: 40.

<h3>How to obtain the amounts?</h3>

The amounts for each donut are found applying the proportion, multiplying the decimal equivalent of each percentage by the total number of donuts.

From the problem, the total number of donuts is given as follows:

100 donuts.

The percentages of each type of donuts are given as follows:

  • Strawberry: 15%.
  • Chocolate: 45%.
  • Sprinkle: 40%.

The decimal equivalent of each percentage is given as follows:

  • Strawberry: 0.15.
  • Chocolate: 0.45.
  • Sprinkle: 0.4.

Hence the amounts are given as follows:

  • Strawberry: 15, as 0.15 x 100 = 15.
  • Chocolate: 45, as 0.45 x 100 = 45.
  • Sprinkle: 40, as 0.4 x 100 = 40.
