Point B ∈ AC. Find the length of segments AB and BC if AC = 20 cm and: AB:BC = 3:7
madam [21]

Answer:

Length of AB  = 6 cm

Length of the segment BC =  14 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, B is a point on a segment AC.

AB : BC = 3:7

Length of the segment AC = 20 cm

Now, let the common ratio between the segment is x.

So, the length of AB = 3 x , and Length of BC = 7 x

Now, AB + BC = AC

⇒  3x + 7x = 20

or, 10 x = 20

or, x = 2

Hence, the length of AB = 3 x = 3 x 2 = 6 cm

and the length of the segment BC = 7x =  7 x 2 =  14 cm

sveticcg [70]

Answer:

It took 1.2 hours to get to the store

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the time taken to reach the store be t₁

Let the time taken to come back be t₂

Let the speed to and from store = s₁ and s₂ respectively

let the distance to the store = d

To the store:

speed = \frac{distance}{time} \\s = \frac{d}{t_1} \\t_1 = \frac{d}{s_1}\\t_1 =\frac{d}{4} - - - - - (1)

Back from the store:

s_2 = \frac{d}{t_2} \\t_2 = \frac{d}{s_2}\\where:\\s_2 = 6\ miles\ per\ hour\\t_2 = \frac{d}{6} - - - - - - (2)

We are told that total time (t₁ + t₂) = 2 hours

t₁ + t₂ = eqn (1) + eqn (2)

\frac{d}{4} + \frac{d}{6} = 2\\Multiplying\ through\ by\ 12:\\3d\ +\ 2d\ =\ 24\\5d = 24\\d = \frac{24}{5} \\d = 4.8\ miles

∴ length of trip to the store = t₁

from eqn (1)

t_1 = \frac{d}{4} \\t_1 = \frac{4.8}{4} \\t_1 = 1.2\ hours
