At a track meet, Jacob and Daniel compete in 220 m hurdles.
Daniels finishes in of the a min.
Jacob finishes with of a min remaining.
Question:
Who ran the race in faster time?
The Process:
Let us see the denominators. The least common multiple (LCM) of 4 and 12 is 12.
Let us draw the diagram that represents a minute.
12 units represent in one minute.
Daniels finishes in of the a min.
or 9 of 12 units.
Jacob finishes with of a min remaining, or 5 of 12 units. This means Jacob finishes in or 7 of 12 units, that is
And now we conclude who ran the race in a faster time.
Daniels:
Jacobs:
Because Jacob took the race in a shorter time, he was who ran the race in a faster time.
- - - - - - - - - -
Quick Steps
Daniels: in of the a min.

Jacob: in of the a min.

Jacob's time is shorter, so he's the fastest.
- - - - - - - - - -
Calculate the speed
Recall
Daniels:
Jacob:
Thus, Jacob's speed proved greater than Daniels's speed.

Given that 2x^2 - 2y^2 = 40 and x-y=5, find the value of (x+y)
kipiarov [429]

Answer:

<em>x+y=4</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

hello :

note :  by identity  you have   x²-y² = (x-y)(x+y)

in this exercice : 2x²-2y² = 2(x²-y²) = 2 (x-y)(x+y)

means :   2 (x-y)(x+y) = 40

but x-y = 5

so : 2(5)(x+y) =40

x+y=40/10

<em>x+y=4</em>

Someone please help me answer this!!
marin [14]

Answer:

c = 85 in is the answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

a = 36 in

b = 77 in

c = ?

According to the Pythagoras theorem,

a² + b² = c²

36² + 77² = c²

1296 + 5929 = c²

7225 = c²

c = 85 in

∴ c = 85 in is the length of the missing leg.

Explain why the graph of a linear equation in the form of y=c is a horizontal line
xeze [42]
Let's say "c" is a constant, hmmmm any constant, for any value whatsoever of "x", "y" is always that constant, for example, say c = 3, thus y = 3, so a table for it will look like 

\bf \begin{array}{ccll}&#10;x&y\\&#10;\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}&\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}\\&#10;-\infty&3\\&#10;-6&3\\&#10;-5&3\\&#10;-4&3\\&#10;-3&3\\&#10;-2&3\\&#10;-1&3\\&#10;0&3\\&#10;1&3\\&#10;2&3\\&#10;3&3\\&#10;4&3\\&#10;5&3\\&#10;6&3\\&#10;+\infty&3&#10;\end{array}

now, if you plot those points, it'd looks like the picture below.

A can of beans has surface area 320cm squared . Its height is 14 cm. What is the radius of the circular​ top?
Ratling [72]

Steps:

All cans take on the shape of a cylinder, unless you have seen interesting shape of cans like a starfish.

The formula for surface area of a cylinder is

 

SA = 2πr2 + 2πrh

 

where:

r = radius

h = height

 

Since we know the surface area and height, we can plug them in.  Note that we can factor out the 2π.  You will see why we factor out 2π rather than 2πr.

 

2π(r2 + (20)r) = 396

 

2π(r2 + 20r) = 396

 

 

Divide both sides of the equation by 2π to isolate the r terms.

 

r2 + 20r = 63.025    

 

 

Subtract 63.025 on both sides of the equation.

 

r2 + 20r - 63.025 = 0

 

 

Use the quadratic formula to solve for r:

 

r = (-b ± √(b2 - 4ac)) / 2a

 

where:

a = 1

b = 20

c = -63.025

 

Plug in these values into the formula.  You should get two solutions because of the plus/minus sign.  Accept the positive value of r.

what is the aprproximate length of the arc formed by a 90 angle on a circle that has a radious of 70 feet
AleksandrR [38]
That depends on the position of the angle, if it's a central angle then the length of arc = 1/4 the circumference

so L = (1/4)(2pi(70))= 110 feet approximately
