Answer:
The sidewalk moves at 0.5 ft/sec
Josie's speed walking on a non-moving ground is 3.5ft/sec
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the speed of the side walk and y represent her walking speed
It takes Jason's 8-year-old daughter Josie 44 sec to travel 176 ft walking with the sidewalk
Distance = speed × time
176 = (x+y)×44
44x+44y = 176
x+y = 4 .......1
It takes her 7 sec to walk 21 ft against the moving sidewalk in the opposite direction).
21 = (y-x)7
7y - 7x = 21
y - x = 3 ......2
Add equation 1 to 2
2y = 7
y = 3.5 ft/sec
From equation 1
x + y = 4
x = 4 - 3.5 = 0.5
x = 0.5 ft/sec
The sidewalk moves at 0.5 ft/sec
Josie's speed walking on a non-moving ground is 3.5ft/sec
Answer:
23 is the smallest number
Step-by-step explanation:
Three consecutive numbers are numbers that come in a row. So if the first number is n then the next is n+1 and the following is n+2.
All together they add to 72.
So n + n+1 +n +2 = 72.
3n + 3 = 72
3n = 69
n = 23
1) 6x
2) 2x + 4
3) 5y + 11
hope this helps!
100%/x%=12/15
<span>(100/x)*x=(12/15)*x - </span>we multiply both sides of the equation by x
<span>100=0.8*x - </span>we divide both sides of the equation by (0.8) to get x
<span>100/0.8=x </span>
<span>125=x </span>
<span>x=125
so 125%</span>
The slope of a line that is perpendicular to another line is the negative reciprocal of the other.
In this case, we know that the slope of the given equation is 2.
Since we're solving for a line perpendicular to it, we simply find the reciprocal of the 2 (It turns into 1/2) and make it negative.
y = -1/2x + b
Since the given states that the new y-intercept is 10, input it into 'b'.
y = -1/2x + 10
If you'd like me to explain anything I did here, just ask :)
