A bird leaves it's nest and travels 15 miles per hour downwind for x hours. On the return trip, the bird travels 3 miles per hour slower and has 2 miles left after x hours. A. What is the distance of the entire trip? ___ Miles B. How long does the entire trip take? __hours ___minutes and ___ seconds

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance = Speed * time

If a bird leaves it's nest and travels 15 miles per hour downwind for x hours, the distance covered will be:

D = 15x

x = D/15 ....... 1

If on the return trip, the bird travels 3 miles per hour slower and has 2 miles left after x hours

Her speed = 15 - 3 = 12mi/hour

If she has 2 miles left after x hours, new distance will be D-2, using the formula for distance:

D+2 = 12x

x = D-2/12  ....... 2

Equate 1 and 2:

D/15 = D-2/12

Cross multiply

12D = 15(D-2)

12D = 15D - 30

12D-15D = -30

-3D = -30

D = 10 miles

The distance for the entire trip will be D + (D-2) = 10 + (10-2)

= 10 + 8

= 18 miles

To get the time x, we will substitute D = 10 into equation1

D = 15x

10 = 15x

x = 10/15

To minutes

x = 10/15 * 60

x = 40 minutes

For the going trip

Time taken = x hours

Return trip = x hours

Total time for the entire trip = x+x = 2x

= 2(40)

= 80 minutes

Hence the total time taken for the entire trio will be 1 hour 20minutes

Linda has outgrown the bike she rode when she was small. So, for her twelfth birthday, her parents surprise her with a five-speed Blaze Rider 2000! Linda has never had a bike with multiple speeds before, and she is eager to learn how it works. She starts by testing the middle speed. There is a proportional relationship between the number of times Linda pedals, x, and the number of times the wheels rotate, y. The equation that models this relationship is y=3x. How many times do the wheels rotate when Linda pedals 2 times? Write your answer as a whole number or decimal

Answers

Answer:

6 times

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the proportuonal relationship between exists between the number times Linda pedals (x) and the number of times wheels rotate (y) as ;

y = 3x

How many times do the wheels rotate when Linda pedals 2 times

Here, x = 2

From ; y = 3x

y = 3(2) = 6

Hence, wheel rotates 6 times.

Ok, so first, at the end of the equation, It says "+ 4" , right? So you put a point on positive 4 on the y-axis (the one that goes up and don, the vertical line.). Then, 2x means that's your slope, but since your graph only goes up to five, you gotta count down ward. So, go down from your point on the y-axis (4) twice and over to the LEFT (<--) once. Plot your point where you end up. then use a straightedge like a ruler, and connect your two points on the graph, and you have your line!

It takes 40 units of maple sap to produce 1 ounce of maple syrup. Jane and her family are bottling maple syrup in 20 -ounce bottles. She notices that they leave about 2 ounces of air every time they fill a bottle, to avoid overfill. How much maple sap did they need to collect to fill 15 bottles? How much less maple sap did they need than if they would have filled each bottle to the top? Express your answer as a negative number.

Answers

Answer:

10,800

-1200

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

40 units of maple sap = 1 ounce of maple syrup

Using a 20 - ounce bottle, 2 ounces of air is left

Ounces of actual syrup = (20 - 2) = 18 ounces

Number of maple sap required to fill 15 bottles :

Number of maple saps required to fill 18 ounces bottle :

40 units = 1 ounce

x = 18 ounces

Hence, for 18 ounces of maple syrup :

(40 * 18).= 720 units of maple sap

For 15 bottles of 18 ounces maple syrup:

(720 * 15) = 10,800 units of maple sap

If they had filled each bottle to the top:

(40 * 20 * 15) = 12000 units of maple sap

10,800 - 12000 = - 1200 units of maple sap

Jill is building a wooden raised bed garden for her vegetable she wants the frame to have dimension X feet by X +3 feet if she wants the garden to have a maximum area of 50 ft.² what are the possible values of X

Answers

Answer: 0ft < X ≤ 5.73ft

Step-by-step explanation:

In this case, we have a rectangle.

For a rectangle of length L and width W, the area is:

A = L*W.

And we have:

L = X

W = X  + 3ft.

Then the area will be:

A = X*(X + 3ft) = X^2 + 3ft*X.

And we want to have a maximum area of 50ft^2.

Then we can write:

A = X^2 + 3ft*X ≤ 50ft^2

Now let's solve this for X.

Now, the first thing we can see is that both coefficients in our quadratic equation are positive, so as the absolute value of X increases, also does the whole equation.

Then makes sense start for the upper limit of X, this is when:

X^2 + 3ft*X = 50ft^2.

Now we can solve the quadratic equation:

X^2 + 3ft*X - 50ft^2 = 0

Applying the Bhaskara formula, the solutions are:

[tex]X = \frac{-3ft +- \sqrt{(3ft)^2 - 4*1*(-50ft^2)} }{2} = \frac{-3ft +-14.46ft }{2}[/tex]

Then we have two solutions:

X = (-3ft - 14.46ft)/2 = -8.73 ft.

X = (-3ft + 14.46ft)/2 = 5.73 ft

Because X represents a distance, it can only be positive, then we must select the option X = 5.73ft.

This is the maximum value of X, and we will have:

0ft < X ≤ 5.73ft

Where the lower limit is there because we can not have X = 0ft, as this does not have physical meaning.

Find the value of a and b when x =10

Answers

Answer:

A=250

B=10

Step-by-step explanation:

You plug in 10 for x and solve

Let’s do a first.
So to start, we need to substitute 10 into the equation, so:
a = 5 x (10 squared) / 2
Which can be simplified to
a = 5 x 100 / 2
a = 500 / 2
a = 250

Now onto b. Again, we need to substitute 10 into the equation, so:
b = (2 x (10 squared))(10 - 5) / 10 x 10
Which can be simplified to
b = (2 x 100)(10 - 5) / 10 x 10
b = 200(10 - 5) / 10 x 10
b = 200(5) / 10 x 10
b = 1000 / 10 x 10
b = 1000 / 100
b = 10

Kevin and monica lead visitor tours at a museum. Last month, both kevin and monica led the same number of vistors. Kevin lead 150 adults, plus 6 student groups. Monica led 134 adults, plus 8 student groups. If each student group had the same number of students, which equation could be used to determine the number of students in each group?

Answers

Answer:

Number of students in each group = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

kevin and monica led the same number of vistors.

Let x = number of students in each group

Kevin lead 150 adults, plus 6 student groups.

150 + 6x

Monica led 134 adults, plus 8 student groups.

134 + 8x

Equate both equations

150 + 6x = 134 + 8x

Collect like terms

150 - 134 = 8x - 6x

16 = 2x

Divide both sides by 2

x = 16 / 2

= 8

x = 8

Number of students in each group = 8

A runner sprinted for 351 feet.

Given that, a runner sprinted for 117 yards (yd).

How to convert yards to feet?

To convert a yard measurement to a foot measurement, multiply the length by the conversion ratio. The length in feet is equal to the yards multiplied by 3.

Here, multiply the ratio 117/1 by 3/1.

That is, 117 × 3 =351 ft

Antonio's dad bought gas for their family's ATV two weeks in a row.

Last week, he bought 12 gallons for $35.40.

This week, he bought 9 gallons for $25.83.

The points are (-5,7) and (10,1). The slope of the points is -2/5.

How to calculate a slope ?

Any two different points on a line can be used to calculate the slope of any line. The slope of a line formula is used to determine the ratio of "vertical change" to "horizontal change" between two different points on a line.

Given that,

The points are (-5,7) and (10,1).

We have to find the slope of the points.

The relationship between how a line's y coordinate changes and how its x coordinate changes determines a line's slope. y and x are the net changes in the y and x coordinates, respectively. As a result, the change in y coordinate with regard to the change in x coordinate can be written as,

Slope of the points=[tex]\frac{y_{2} -y_{1} }{x_{2} -x_{1} }[/tex]

Here,

x₁=-5,

y₁=7

x₂=10

y₂=1

Slope of the points [tex]= \frac{1 - 7}{10 + 5}[/tex]

Slope of the points =(-6)/(15)

Slope of the points = -2/5

Therefore, the slope of the points is -2/5.
