Joe bikes at the speed of 30 km/h from his home toward his work. If Joe's wife leaves home 5 mins later by car, how fast should she drive in order to overtake him in 10 minutes.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

45 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a really good question to know the answer to. It is tricky and a bit indirect (which means you have to find something else before you can find the speed of the car.)

Let's keep track of what he does in the time allotted.

How far does Joe go in 5 minutes? That's the amount of time he's on the road before she is.

convert 5 minutes into hours. 5 minutes * 1 hour / 60 minutes = 1/12 of an hour

d = r*t

r = 30 km/hour

t = 1/12 hour

d = 30 km/hr * 1/12 hour = 2.5 km

Now she's about to start. She wants to catch him in 10 minutes

d = r*t

r = x mph

t = 10 minutes = 10 minutes * 1 hour * 60 minutes = 1/6 of an hour.

How far does he go in the 10 minute time?

d = 30 * 1/6 = 5 km

What is his total distance

5 km + 2.5 km = 7.5 km

Finally how fast does she need to go to catch him

d = 7.5 km

r = ?   This is what you are trying to find

t = 1/6 of an hour

d = r*t

7.5 km = r * (1/6)hour             divide by 1/6 hour

7.5 km // 1/6 hour = r

r = 7.5 * 6 = 45 mph

Q. terms of a geometric sequence are found by the formula Tn = ar n-1 If a = 3 and r = 2 , find the 4 terms of the sequence.

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  3, 6, 12, 24

Step-by-step explanation:

It helps if the formula is properly written.

  Tn = a·r^(n-1)

Fill in the given values for a, r, and use n = 1 to 4.

  T1 = 3·2^(1-1) = 3

  T2 = 3·2^(2-1) = 6

  T3 = 3·2^(3 -1) = 12

  T4 = 3·2^(4 -1) = 24

__

Additional comment

The value a=3 tells you the first term is 3. The value r=2 tells you each term is 2 times the previous one. Knowing this, you can write down the sequence based on your knowledge of multiplication tables (×2). You can use the formula as we did above, but it isn't necessary.

A football is punted so that its path is described by the function h(t) = -4.9(t - 3.5)2 + 15 where h(t) is the height of the football, in meters at time t, in seconds.

What time in seconds does it take for the football to reach its maximum height? Round your answer to the nearest tenth.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

You already have this set up to answer your question. This quadratic is in work form, aka vertex form, where the vertex is (3.5, 15). The first coordinate of the vertex is the time it takes to reach its max height, which is the second coordinate of the vertex. So it takes 3.5 seconds to reach a max height of 15 meters.

(A)13 sqrt(2) inches

Answers

remember the pythagorean theorem:

a² + b² = c²

where c is the hypotenuse.

so:

[tex] {a}^{2} + {b}^{2} = { ( \sqrt{26)}}^{2} [/tex]

the square and the square root cancel each other out, so...

a² + b² = 26

we know that a and b are of equal length given the angles.

so it's

[tex] { \sqrt{13} }^{2} + { \sqrt{13} }^{2} = 26[/tex]

here the squares and square roots also cancel, but to keep the equation from the formula true we need to write them. that makes the difference between optional and B

Allen is looking through his weekly local grocery store newspaper ads he notices that Costco is advertising a pack of 60 eggs for $9.35 Safeway is advertising a dozen eggs for $4.79 and Trader Joe's is advertising a pack of 18 eggs for $6.18 which store is offering the better deal?​

Answers

Answer:

Costco

Step-by-step explanation:

We find the cost per egg for each of the three stores.

Costco:

$9.35/(60 eggs) = $0.15583/egg

Safeway:

$4.79/(12 eggs) = $0.39917/egg

Trader Joe's:

$6.18/(18 eggs) = $0.34333/egg

The best deal is Costco.

Answer:

Costco

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\frac{60}{9.35}: \frac{1}{y}[/tex]

60 × y = 1 × 9.35

60y = 9.35

60y ÷ 60 = 9.35 ÷ 60

[tex]y=\frac{187}{1200}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{12}{4.79}: \frac{1}{y}[/tex]

12 × y = 1 × 4.79

12y = 4.79

12y ÷ 12 = 4.79 ÷ 12

[tex]y=\frac{479}{1200}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{18}{6.18}: \frac{1}{y}[/tex]

18 × y = 1 × 6.18

18y = 6.18

18y ÷ 18 = 6.18 ÷ 18

Gradient = Rise / Run.

Point A (2, 5) ; point B (4, 10)

x1 = 2 ; y1 = 5 ;x2 = 4 ; y2 = 10

Rise = y2 - y1 = 10 - 5 = 5

Cross out three digits in the number 51489704 so that the resulting number is divisible by 45. What number is left?

Answers

The factors of 45 are 9 and 5.

A number divisible by 45 needs to be divisible by both 9 and 5.

For a number to be divisible by 9 the sum of the digits must also be divisible by 9 and the number needs to end with either a 0 or a 5 to be divisible by 5.

This means the number needs to end with the 0 so cross out the last number (4)

Now find a sum of 5 remaining numbers divisible by 9.

5 + 1 + 4 + 8 + 0 = 18 which is divisible by 9

Cross out 9,7 and the last number 4 to get the number: 51480

During three consecutive years, an employers salary is increased by 15%. If after three years his salary is 45,400, what was his salary before the raises?

Answers

Answer:

$29,851.24

Step-by-step explanation:

The salary started as x.

Each year it was increased 15%.

A full amount is 100% of the amount. When you add 15% to the amount, you now have 115% of the amount.

115% as a decimal is 1.15; that means that to increase an amount by 15%, multiply the amount by 1.15

For example, let's say you want to know what is a 15% increase on 100. Start with 100. 15% of 100 is 15, so if you add 15% to 100 you expect to get 115.

Now multiply 1.15 by 100. You also get 115 showing you that multiplying a number by 1.15 is the same as adding 15%.

Now let's get back to our problem.

The salary started as x.

Each year, the increase in salary was 15% of the previous salary.

After 1 year the salary is 1.15x.

After 2 years, the salary is 1.15(1.15x).

After 3 years, the salary is 1.15(1.15(1.15x)) = (1.15^3)x

We are told that the salary became $45,400 after the three 15% increases, so

(1.15)^3 * x = 45,400

Multiply out 1.15^3 as 1/15 * 1.15 * 1.15 = 1.520875

1.520875x = 45,400

Divide both sides by 1.520875.

x = 45,400/1.520875
