Joseph needs to drive 42 miles. They were going to drive at a certain average speed, but if they drive 10 mph faster, the trip will take 6 minutes (1/10 of an hour) less time. How fast were they going to drive? Write out the equation(s) ​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The speed is 60 mph.

Step-by-step explanation:

distance = 42 miles

Let he drove with speed v and time is t.

distance = speed x time

42 = v t ..... (1)

42 = (v + 10)(t - 1/10) ..... (2)

[tex]42 = 42 -\frac{v}{10}+ 10 t - 1\\\\t =\frac{10+v}{100}\\\\Put in (1)\\\\42 = \frac{v(10+v)}{100}\\\\v^2 + 10 v - 4200 = 0 \\\\v = \frac{-10\pm \sqrt{100+4\times 4200}}{2}\\\\v =\frac{- 10 \pm 130}{2}\\\\v =- 70 mph, 60mph[/tex]

So, the speed cannot be negative so the speed is 60 mph.

Use the following property below:

[tex] \large \boxed{ \sqrt[n]{a} \times \sqrt[n]{a} \times \sqrt[n]{a} = { (\sqrt[n]{a}) }^{3} }[/tex]

Therefore,

[tex] \large{ \sqrt[7]{x} \times \sqrt[7]{x} \times \sqrt[7]{x} = { (\sqrt[7]{x}) }^{3} }[/tex]

Then we use next property.

[tex] \large{ \sqrt[n]{ {a}^{m} } = {a}^{ \frac{m}{n} } }[/tex]

Hence,

[tex] \large{ \sqrt[7]{ {x}^{3} } = {x}^{ \frac{3}{7} } }[/tex]

Can someone please help me with this problem?

Answers

Answer:

C 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Pythagoras

c² = a² + b²

117 = x² + (x+3)² = x² + x² + 6x + 9 = 2x² + 6x + 9

=>

108 = 2x² + 6x

54 = x² + 3x

0 = x² + 3x - 54 = (x-6)(x+9)

just think by what numbers can we divide 54 without any remainder (so that when multiplying we get 54) ? and which pair of these have a difference of 3 (so that with +/- combination we get "3x" in the multiplication)?

the solutions for x are the 2 numbers that would make one of the bracket expressions 0, as this turns the whole expression to 0.

x = 6 and x = -9

a negative number does not make any sense for a side length.

so, the only possible solution is x = 6

There were 436 tickets purchased for a major league baseball game. The general admission tickets cost ​$6.50 and the upper reserved tickets cost ​$8.00. The total amount of money spent was ​$3284.00. How many of each kind of ticket were​ purchased?
How many general admission tickets were​ purchased? ____
How many upper reserved tickets we purchased? ___

Answers

Answer:

136 general admission tickets were​ purchased, and 300 upper reserved tickets were purchased.

Step-by-step explanation:

This question is solved using a system of equations.

I am going to say that:

x is the number of general admission tickets purchased.

y is the number of reserved tickets purchased.

There were 436 tickets purchased for a major league baseball game.

This means that [tex]x + y = 436[/tex], or also, [tex]x = 436-y[/tex]

The general admission tickets cost ​$6.50 and the upper reserved tickets cost ​$8.00. The total amount of money spent was ​$3284.00.

This means that [tex]6.5x + 8y = 3284[/tex]. Since [tex]x = 436-y[/tex]

[tex]6.5(436-y) + 8y = 3284[/tex]

[tex]1.5y = 450[/tex]

[tex]y = \frac{450}{1.5}[/tex]

[tex]y = 300[/tex]

And:

[tex]x = 436 - y = 436 - 300 = 136[/tex]

136 general admission tickets were​ purchased, and 300 upper reserved tickets were purchased.

O C. The low temperature in City B was lower than the low temperature in City A.
O D. Both B and C are true.

Answers

Answer:

City B experienced a bigger temperature change than City A.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the graph of the temperature given, using visual inspection, we can see how the graph of both cuties change, for city A, the change in temperature, very low as the highest temperature is about 80 and the lowest temperature value is about 76 ;

However. For city B, the highest temperature value is about 100 and the lowest is about 76

Hence, City B experienced a bigger temperature change than A.

For low temperature, the low temperature in city A and B are the same with a value of about 76°

A.
$8.62
B.
$229.80
C.
$1,140.38
D.
$1,149.00

Answers

Answer:
C $1,140.38
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given that Adriana sold 50 shares and that the price per share was $22.98
This means that:
Total value = 50 * 22.98 = $1149
Now, we know that the broker charged 0.75% commission on the total value
This means that:
Broker's charge = 0.75% * 1149 = 0.0075 * 1149 = $8.6175
Therefore,
Adriana's return = Total value - broker's charge
Adriana's return = 1149 – 8.6175 = $1,140.38
