Two motorcyclist start at the same point and travel in opposite directions. One travels 8 miles an hour faster than the other. In 3 hours they are 288 miles apart how fast is each traveling

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

One motorcycle was going 44 miles and hour and the other motorcycle was going 8 miles an hour faster, so it was going 52 miles per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance = rate times time

Both motorcycles have a time of 3.  We do not know the rates, but we know that one motorcycle's rate was 8 miles an hour faster.  Let's call motorcycle 1's rate x then motorcycle 2's rate must be (x + 3)

Motorcycle 1

d = 3x

Motorcycle 2

d = 3(x +8)

We know that the total distance together is 288

3x + 3(x+8) = 288  Distribute the 3

3x + 3x + 24 = 288  Combine the 3's

6x + 24 = 288  Subtract 24 from both sides of the equation

6x = 264  Divide both sides by 6

x = 44

One motorcycle was going 44 miles and hour and the other motorcycle was going 8 miles an hour faster, so it was going 52 miles per hour.

Find the percent of change in altitude if a weather balloon moves from 100 ft to 103 ft. describe the percent of change as an increase or decrease. round to the nearest tenth if necessary.

Answers

The percent of change is an increase in altitude of the weather balloon.

Percentage change

Original altitude = 100 ftNew altitude = 103 ft

Change in altitude = New altitude - Original altitude

= 103 ft - 100 ft

= 3 ft

Percentage change = Change in altitude / Original altitude × 100

= 3 / 100 × 100

= 3%

Therefore, the percentage change in the altitude of the weather balloon is 3%.

Find the inequality represented by the graph.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]y\le -\frac{1}{3}x + 1[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the line is y = mx + b

where

m is the slope = rise/run

b = y-intercept ie where the line crosses the y-axis at x = 0

The line crosses the y axis at y = 1 so the y-intercept is 1 and the point at which the line crosses is (0, 1)

We have the equation as

y = mx + 1

To find the slope, take any two points on the line. Find the corresponding difference in the y values and divide this difference by the corresponding difference in the x values

Two convenient points are (0, 1) and (3, 0)

Slope = [tex]\frac{0-1}{3-0} = -\frac{1}{3}[/tex]

Equation of the line :
[tex]y = -\frac{1}{3}x + 1[/tex]

To find out if the inequality in the shaded region is a ≥ or a ≤ inequality, take a point in the shaded region. Determine whether the chosen point x, y values satisfy which of the following equations

[tex]y\le -\frac{1}{3}x + 1[/tex]                 (1)

or

[tex]y\ge -\frac{1}{3}x + 1[/tex]                  (2)

The point (0,0) is inside the shaded region

Plug in these values into inequality (1)
[tex]0 = -\frac{1}{3}\cdot0 + 1[/tex] = 1

Is 0 ≤ 1 ?

Indeed it is so the inequality is
[tex]y\le -\frac{1}{3}x + 1[/tex]    (Answer)

Find the area of the shaded region in the first quadrant bounded by the line y=3x

Answers

The area of the shaded region in the first quadrant is: 0.75 units

What is area under a curve?

The area under a curve between two points can be found by doing a definite integral between the two points.

Now,

Given:

x = 0, y = 2Curve: y = 3x - x²

To find: area bounded by the given lines and curve in the first quadrant.

Finding:

Now, according to the question, the lines x = 0 and y = 2 intersect at the point (0,2).

Point of Intersection of y = 2 and y = 3x - x²:

2 = 3x - x²

=> x² - 3x + 2 = 0

=> (x - 2)(x - 1) = 0

That is, the line and the curve intersect at two points: ( 1 , 2) and (2,2). But the point that is of our importance is only (1,2).

Thus, area shaded = [tex]\int\limits^1_0 {2 - 3x +x^{2}} \, dx[/tex] = 0.75 square units.

during a summer thunderstorm, the temperature drops and then rises again. the rate of change of the temperature during the hour and a half after the storm began is given by t(h) = 9.5h3 − 15.5h2 + 17.4h − 10.12°f per hour

Answers

According to the given statement One and half hour after the summer thunderstorm began, the temperature was approximately 1.0°F flower than at the start of the storm.

How is the rate of temperature change determined?

Subtract the final temperature from the starting temperature to get the temperature change (T). Multiply the temperature change by the sample's mass. Share the product's energy and heat output.

The equation is C = Q / (T m).

According to the given information:

Consider the function t as defined below. t(h)=9.5h – 15.52 +17.4h-10.12

Here,

h is the number of hours after storm began.

The function t represents the rate of change of temperature in °F per hour during the hour and a half after the storm began.

During the storm, the temperatures lowers and then rises.

A travel agency surveyed 70 of their clients who had visited Europe about international travel. Of the 70 clients who had visited Europe, 60 had traveled to England, France, or both. Of those 60 clients, 45 had visited England, and 50 had visited France.

c. What is the probability that a randomly chosen participant in the survey will have visited both England and France? Explain your reasoning.

Answers

The probability that a randomly chosen participant in the survey will have visited both England and France is 0.5

Given data

number of clients = 70

travelled to England , France or both = 60

travelled to England = 45

travelled to France = 50

How to find the probability that a randomly chosen participant in the survey will have visited both England and France

let:

E represent the client that visited England only,

F represent the number of client that visited France only,

EF represent the number of clients that visited both England and France only

we have

E + F + EF = 60

45 - EF + 50  - EF + EF = 60

45 + 50 - EF = 60

95 - EF = 60

95 - 60 = EF

EF = 35

E = 10

F = 15

probability

Pr = required outcome / possible outcome

= EF / clients surveyed

= 35 / 70

= 0.5

Explanation

EF represents the number of clients that visited England and France only, and it was solved to be 35. probability is the ratio of required outcome which 35 to the possible outcome which is the total number of clients 70. The ratio gives 0.5

By using properties of right triangles, we will see that the value of x is 7.72

How to find the length of side x?

In the image we have a set of right triangles, and we want to find the value of x.

Let's look at the large triangle in the left, we know that the hypotenuse measures 18 units and one angle measures 64°, with that information we can get the adjacent side (the dashed line, let's call it A) to that angle:

Cos(64°) = A/18

18*cos(64°) = A = 7.05

Now we know one of the cathetus of the smaller right triangle (the one we can see in the right side). Here we know one angle that measures 20° and the opposite to that angle measures 7.05

Then the value of x is given by the equation:

x = 7.05/sin(20°) = 7.72

We conclude that the value of x is 7.72

Answers

The closure property is defined as the completion of a collection of numbers by using arithmetic operations.

The closure property asserts that when an arithmetic operation such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, or division is done on any two numbers in the set, the response is another number from the same set.The closure property essentially asserts that when we add or multiply any two real numbers, we will obtain just one unique response, which will likewise be a real number. The commutative property asserts that the order of the numbers does not matter when adding or multiplying real numbers.For example, the closure property is true for whole numbers over addition and multiplication.

If 1 kilogram = 2.205 pounds, converting 165 pounds to kilograms and rounding to the nearest tenth gives

Answers

The value of 165 pounds is 74.8 kilograms

How to convert the metric units?

The given parameter is:

1 kilogram = 2.205 pounds

Multiply both sides by 165

So, we have

165 * 1 kilogram = 2.205 pounds * 165

Divide both sides by 2.205

So, we have

165/2.205 * 1 kilogram = 2.205 pounds * 165/2.205

Evaluate the products

So, we have

74.8 kilogram = 165 pounds

Answers

The correct answer is option c. $0.79

As per the question:

No. of pea cans in a case = 18 cans

Weight of each can of peas = 12 ounces

Price of a case of peas = $14.22

The information regarding the weight of each can is redundant in this question and therefore, is not used for solving the question

Therefore, the formula to be used for solving:

Price per unit can of peas= (Price of a case of peas/No of pea cans in a case)

Price per unit can of peas= ($14.22/18)

The price per unit can of peas= $0.79

Hence, option c is the correct answer
