You should keep 0.97 seconds of distance between you and the vehicle ahead.

<h3>How to calculate the distance and time taken by a car</h3>

The formula for calculating distance is expressed as:

distance  = speed * time

Time = Distance/Speed

Given the following parameters

Distance = 50 feet

Speed = 35mph = 51.3ft/s

Time taken = 50/51.3
Time taken = 0.97

Hence you should keep 0.97 seconds of distance between you and the vehicle ahead.

Given right triangle A w/a hypotenuse length of x+4 and a leg of x, and right triangle B, w/ a hypotense length of 3y and a leg
alex41 [277]

Answer:

Value is x=8 and y=4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A right triangle 'A'  hypotenuse length of x+4 and a leg of x,

and right triangle 'B' hypotenuse length of 3y and a leg length of y+4

To find : For what values of x and y are the triangles congruent by HL?  

Solution :

Triangle A,

Hypotenuse: x+4

Leg: x

Triangle B,  

Hypotenuse: 3y

Leg: y+4  

Since the triangle A and B are congruent so, the sides of triangles are equal.

x+4=3y    (Hypotenuse are equal)  ..........[1]

and x=y+4   (Legs are equal)   ..........[2]

Solving the equation of system,

Put the value of x from [2] in [1],

x+4=3y

y+4+4=3y

8=2y

y=4

Substitute y in [2],

x=y+4

x=4+4

x=8

Therefore, The value of x=8 and y=4

Verifying for the values of x and y:

Triangle A,

Hypotenuse: x+4=8+4=12

Leg: x=8

Triangle B,  

Hypotenuse: 3y=3(4)=12

Leg: y+4=4+4=8

Both hypotenuses and both legs are equal hence they are congruent.

You and a friend are playing a game of chance. Every time you roll a 1 or 2 you are successful, and your friend will pay you $1.
LUCKY_DIMON [66]

At the end of the game you owned 13 cents if 71% of your rolls are successful and 29% of your rolls are unsuccessful option first is correct.

<h3>What is probability?</h3>

It is defined as the ratio of the number of favourable outcomes to the total number of outcomes, in other words, the probability is the number that shows the happening of the event.

We have:

Every time you roll a 1 or 2 you are successful, and your friend will pay you $1. Every time you roll a 3, 4, 5 or 6, you must pay your friend $2.

71% of your rolls are successful:

= 1×0.71

= $0.71 (won)

29% of your rolls are unsuccessful

= 2×2.9

= $0.58 (lose)

The amount owned = 0.71 - 0.58 = $0.13 = 13 cents

Thus, at the end of the game you owned 13 cents if 71% of your rolls are successful and 29% of your rolls are unsuccessful option first is correct.
