John ran 1 2 mile in 5 minutes, and Al ran 1 3 mile in 4 minutes. Which runner ran at a faster rate?

Answers

Answer:

John ran at a faster rate

Step-by-step explanation:

If john runs 1/2 mile in 5 minutes, then for him to run 1 mile it would take 10 minutes because it takes john 5 minutes for every half of a mile. Now Al runs 1/3 mile in 4 minutes. If he would run 1 mile, it would take him 12 minutes because it takes him four minutes every third mile.

PLEASE HELP A. Use composition to prove whether or not the functions are inverses of each other. B. Express the domain of the compositions using interval notation.

Answers

Answer:

Part A : see composition process below

Part B :    [tex]Domain=\{x\,|\,x\neq 0\}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A

Let's use the composition of functions to find if they give the identity : [tex]f(g(x))=x[/tex]  thus proving they are the inverses of each other:

[tex]f(g(x))=f(\frac{5x+1}{x} )=\frac{1}{\frac{5x+1}{x}-5} =\frac{1}{\frac{5x+1-5x}{x}} =\frac{1}{\frac{1}{x} } =x[/tex]

So we have proved they are the inverses of each other.

Part B

Given that the composition is:

[tex]f(g(x))=\frac{1}{\frac{1}{x} }[/tex]

the Domain must exclude x=0, for which this quotient is undefined.

The Domain is then:

[tex]Domain=\{x\,|\,x\neq 0\}[/tex]

What is the solution of the inequality shown
below?
y+7<-1

Answers

Answer:

y<-8

Step-by-step explanation:

y<-1 - 7

y<-8

Answer:

y < -8

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve an inequality, we must get the variable, y, isolated on one side of the inequality.

[tex]y+7 < -1[/tex]

7 is being added to the variable, y. The inverse of addition is subtraction. Subtract 7 from both sides of the inequality.

[tex]y+7-7< -1-7[/tex]

[tex]y < -1-7[/tex]

[tex]y < -8[/tex]

The solution to the inequality is: y< -8

TheOriginal tragedy of the commons concern grazing cows and sheep’s and 14 century England, space choose the theme in about the tragedy of the commons that is correct

Answers

Answer:

The tragedy of the commons in fourteenth-century England was overcome by the common lands being enclosed and privatized.

The admission fee at a carnival fair is $4.50 for children
and $8.00 for adults. One day, 2200 people attended the fair
and $5050 was collected. How many children and how many
adults attended?
Lets say:
c= number of children
a= number of adults

Answers

Answer:

Adult=1,385.71

Children=814.29

Approximately

Adult=1386

Children=814

Step-by-step explanation:

c= number of children

a= number of adults

Admission fee for children=$4.50

Admission fee for adults=$8.00

Total attendees=2200

Total amount realized=$5050

We need two equations to solve the two unknowns

c + a=2200 (1)

4.50c + 8.00a=5,050 (2)

From (1)

c + a=2200

c=2200 - a

Substitute c=2200 - a into (2)

4.50c + 8.00a=5,050

4.50(2200 - a) + 8.00a=5050

9900 - 4.50a +8.00a=5050

Collect like terms

9900-5050= -4.50a+8.00a

4,850=3.5a

Divide both sides by 3.5

1,385.71=a

Substitute a=1,385,71 into (1)

c + a=2200

c+1385.71=2200

c=2200-1385.71

=814.29

c=814.29

1386 for adults and 814 for children

Will brought a 144-ounce cooler filled with water to soccer practice. He used 16 ounces from the cooler to fill his water bottle. He then took
out 16 plastic cups for his teammates and put the same amount of water in each cup.

Answers

Answer:

Kindly see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Amount of water in cooler = 144 ounces

Size of Will's water bottle = 16 ounces

Therefore, the amount of water left after filling his water bottle :

144 ounces - 16 ounces = 128 ounces of water.

The 128 ounces left was used to equally fill 16 plastic cups :

Therefore the number of ounces of water put in each cup equals :

(128 ounces ÷ 16 cups) = 8 ounces.

The maximum number of ounces of water will could have put in each cup is 8 ounces

Thus (0 < x ≤ 8)

What is g(h(10))? (images)

Answers

Answer:

2 sqrt(2)

Step-by-step explanation:

h(x) = 2x-8

g(x) = sqrt( x-4)

g(h(10))

First find h(10)

h(10) = 2*10 -8 = 20-8 =12

Then find g(h(10) = g(12) = sqrt( 12-4)

480 square feet?
b. How many bags of topsoil must
be purchased to cover a surface
area of 480 square feet?

Answers

For number of bags, divide total area by the area 1 bag can cover.

480 / 12 = 40 total bags.

Now for total weight, multiple total bags by weight per bag:

40 bags x 40 pounds = 1,600 total pounds.

A = 40 bags

B = 1,600 pounds

A certain forest covers an area of 2900 km. Suppose that each year this area decreases by 8.5%. What will the area be after 8 years?
Use the calculator provided and round your answer to the nearest square kilometer.

Answers

Answer:

1425 square kilometer.

Step-by-step explanation:

2900 - 8.5% = 2653.5

2653.5 - 8.5% = 2427.9525

2427.9525 - 8.5% = 2221.5765375

2221.5765375 - 8.5% = 2032.74253181

2032.74253181 - 8.5% = 1859.95941661

1859.95941661 - 8.5% = 1701.8628662

1701.8628662 - 8.5% = 1557.20452257

The distribution of city championship wins shared by 3 HS girls basketball teams in Clayton, MO is as follows: Rockefeller HS 12, Clayton West 20, Clayton South 7. Rounded to the nearest 10%, approximately what percentage of the total wins does each team have?

Answers

Answer:

Rockefeller HS = 31%

Clayton West = 51%

Clayton South = 18%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following:

Championship wins shared by 3 basketball teams :

Rockefeller HS = 12

Clayton West = 20

Clayton South = 7

Percentage of total wins each team has :

Total number of wins = (12 + 20 + 7) = 39 wins

Percentage wins :

[(Number of wins per team) / total number of wins)] × 100

Rockefeller HS:

(12 / 39) * 100 = 30.769% = 31%

Clayton West :

(20/39) * 100 = 51.28% = 51%

Clayton South:

(7/39) * 100 = 17.948% = 18%

ASAP At a store you have the option to buy a 12 pack of pop for $5 or a 8 pack for $3. Which is the better deal? 12 pack 8 pack. And can u pls explain how u got the answer

Answers

Answer:

The 8 pack is the better deal.

Step-by-step explanation:

To get the answer you do the following:

Find the price of one pack for each;

1/12*5= $0.42( cost of one pack for the 12 pack part)

1/8*3= $0.38( cost of one pack for the 8 pack part)

The answer is that the 8 pack is cheaper .

8 is better because it’s cheaper in price so if you wanted more you could buy to for cheaper

Write an expression with exponents to find the total number of panes in 12 windows.

Answers

Answer:

Below

Step-by-step explanation:

Imagine our window has 4 panes (picture below)

Let T be the total number of panes:

There are 12 windows at total.

●T = 4×12

Notice that:

● 4 = 2×2

● 12 = 4×3 = 2×2×3

● T = 2×2×2×2×3 = 2^4×3

T=4x12 because the total number of panes in a window is is 4 and there are 12 windows which all have 4 panes so you have to multiply 4x12 and you will get your answer
