Lexi runs a race at school. She runs at a rate of 4 miles per hour for the first mile, then increases her rate to 5 miles per hour until the last mile when she runs 6 miles per hour. Which equation below represents her time, T. In hours, If she runs a total of x miles

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

60T = 12x - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

In speed distance and time, time(t) is given by

time = distance(d)/speed(s)

total distance ran = x miles

case 1

d = 1 mile

speed = 4 miles per hour

as time = distance(d)/speed(s)

t = 1/4

____________________________

case 2

speed = 5 miles per hour

it is given that out of x miles for first mile and last mile her speed was 5 miles per hour

thus distance for this speed can be calculated by

subtracting first and last mile from x miles

therefore

distance = x-2 miles\

t = (x-2)/5

_____________________________________

case 3

distance = 1 mile

speed = 6 miles per hour

t = 1/6

______________________________

Total time T as required  will be sum of time for the 3 case calculated above

T = 1/4 + (x-2)/5 + 1/6

T = 1/4 + (x - 2)/5 + 1/6   (taking LCM of 6,5,4 as 60 and solving)

T = (15 + 12x - 24 + 10)/60

T = (12x - 1)/60

60T = 12x - 1

Thus, equation 60T = 12x - 1 represents her time T

Henry is mixing concrete. To make concrete he needs to mix cement, sand and gravel in the ratio 1 : 4 : 7 by weight. Henry needs to make 180kg of concrete. He has 16kg of cement, 60.5kg of sand and 100kg of gravel. Which ingredient is Henry short of?

Answers

Answer:

Henry is short of gravel

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we are to identify which of the ingredients Henry is short of.

To identify this ingredient, what is needed to be done is to share the 180kg of concrete appropriately to get which of the material does not meet its ratio and thus allowing us know which is insufficient.

The total ratio is 1 + 4 + 7 = 12

For cement, we have ;

1/12 * 180 = 15 kg

For sand, we have

4/12 * 180 = 60kg

For gravel, we have

7/12 * 180 = 105 kg

From the values in the question, we can see that all the values we have are greater what is shared in the ratio except in the case of gravel. So we can confidently say he is short of gravel

Find the center and radius when x^2+y^2+4x-4y=17

Answers

Answer:

the center is (-2,2) and the radius is 5

Answer:

Center: (-2,2)

Radius:5

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step in this problem is to complete the square and to find the equation of this circle in standard form.

[tex]x^2+y^2+4x-4y=17[/tex] can be rearranged to be:

[tex]x^2+4x+y^2-4y=17[/tex]

Now, you can begin to complete the square with both the x and the y:

[tex](x^2+4x+4)-4+(y^2-4y+4)-4=17[/tex]

Adding 8 to both sides and finishing the squares:

[tex](x+2)^2+(y-2)^2=25[/tex][tex](x+2)^2+(y-2)^2=25[/tex]

The coordinates of the center of the circle are (-2,2), and the radius is [tex]\sqrt{25}=5[/tex]. Hope this helps!

Complete the equation to show the relationship between the number of buses, x, and the number of people that can be transported, y. At this rate, how many people can be transported on 40 buses?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]y = 40\cdot k[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let suppose that each bus has the same capacity and exists a direct proportionality between the amount of people that is transported and the number of buses:

[tex]y \propto x[/tex]

[tex]y = k \cdot x[/tex]

Where [tex]k[/tex] is the proportionality constant, which is equivalent to the maximum capacity of each bus. In that case, the quantity of people that is transported on 40 buses is:

[tex]y = 40\cdot k[/tex]

The sum of the three numbers is 180. The first number is 10 more than the mean of the three numbers and the second number is 4 less than the mean. What is the third number?

Answers

Answer:

The third number (c) is 54.

The other ones are 70 and 56.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have 3 numbers, let's call them a, b and c.

We know that the sum of the three numbers is 180, thus:

[tex]a+b+c=180[/tex]

We also know that the first number is 10 more than the mean of the three numbers (Note: the mean is the sum of the numbers divided by the number of numbers). Thus:

[tex]a=\frac{a+b+c}{3} +10\\a=\frac{a+b+c+30}{3} \\3a=a+b+c+30\\2a=b+c+30[/tex]

Finally the second number is 4 less than the mean:

[tex]b=\frac{a+b+c}{3}-4\\b=\frac{a+b+c-12}{3} \\3b=a+b+c-12\\2b=a+c-12[/tex]

Now we have our set of equations and we can proceed to solve them:

[tex]a+b+c=180\\2a=b+c+30\\2b=a+c-12[/tex]

Solving for a in our first equation we have: [tex]a=180-b-c[/tex] and substituting this in our second equation we have:

[tex]2a=b+c+30\\2(180-b-c)=b+c+30\\360-2b-2c=b+c+30\\330=3b+3c\\110=b+c[/tex]

Now taking this last result into our first equation we have:

[tex]a+b+c=180\\a+(b+c)=180\\a+110=180\\a=70[/tex]

Now we are going to solve for b in our second equation and substitute this in our third equation: [tex]b= 180-a-c[/tex]

[tex]2b=a+c-12\\2(180-a-c)=a+c-12\\360-2a-2c=a+c-12\\372=3a+3c\\124=a+c[/tex]

But we know that a =70, so we can substitute it in our last line:

[tex]124=a+c\\124=70+c\\54=c[/tex]

Now we just need to find b and we can use our first original equation to do this:

[tex]a+b+c=180\\70+b+54=180\\124+b=180\\b=180-124\\b=56[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

With the given information, we can plug this into the equation:
