For many of us, the thought of snow brings hopes of snow days, sledding or skiing. For others it means traffic jams and shoveling. Unfortunately for Roger's father, he is in this second category. It usually takes Roger's father 35 minutes to get to work. However, after the snowstorm it took him an hour and 15 minutes to get to work. What was the percent increase in his commute time to work? Express your answer to the nearest whole number.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: 114%

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we are informed that it usually takes Roger's father 35 minutes to get to work but that after the snowstorm it took him an hour and 15 minutes to get to work.

We should first convert 1 hour, 15 minutes to minutes. Since 60 minutes = 1 hour; Therefore, 1 hour, 15 minutes = 60 minutes + 15 minutes = 75 minutes.

The percent increase in his commute time to work will then be:

= [(75 - 35) / 35] × 100

= 40/35 × 100

= 114.28571%

= 114%

The percentage increase is 114%.

sara ordered 2 eggs, a slice of bacon, and a glass of orange juice for breakfast. the sales tax for the order was $0.48. she paid for her breakfast with a $10 bill.
one egg = $1.69
slice of bacon = $1.49
glass of orange juice = $1.09
how much change should sara receive from the $10 bill?

Answers

Answer:

She should receive $3.56 from paying with a $10 bill

Step-by-step explanation:

The total cost of all her items including sales tax is

$6.44

You have to deduct this total cost from what she paid with.

$10.00 - $6.44 = $3.56

Therefore,

Sara should receive $3.56 from paying with a $10 bill.

Answer: $3.56

Step by step explanation:

1. Figure out how much the eggs cost. (1.69×2=3.38)

2. Add the price of the eggs, bacon, O.J., and sales tax together. (3.38+1.49+1.09+0.48=6.44)

3. Subtract the total ($6.44) by the amount you paid ($10). (10-6.44=3.56)

Fill in the missing values in the table. Then determine the constant of proportionality.

blank 1) 2 1/3 yards
feet
blank 2)
yards: 3 feet
blank 3) 2 yards :
feet
blank 4)
yards: 4.5 feet
The constant of proportionality is

Answers

Answer:

Blank 1) 2 1/3 yards : 7 Feet

Blank 2) 1 yards : 3 Feet

Blank 3) 2 yards : 6 Feet

Blank 4) 1.5 yards : 4.5 Feet

Therefore, the constant of proportionality is: k = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that when 'y' varies directly with 'x', we get the equation

y ∝ x

y = kx

Here, k is the constant of proportionality.

From the table, taking the first two points to determine the constant of proportionality.

Yards                Feet

1/2                       1.5

1/3                        1

Using the equation

substituting y = 1.5 and x = 1/2

y = kx

k = y/x

k = (1.5) / (1/2)

k = 1.5 / 0.5

k = 3

also substituting  y = 1 and x = 1/3

k = y/x

k = 1 / (1/3)

k = 3

As the constant of proportionality is the same.

Therefore, the constant of proportionality = k = 3

Determining Blank 1

Yards = x = 2 1/3 = 7/3

y = blank 1 = Feet ?

k = 3

Using the equation

y = kx

blank 1 = Feet = y = 3 (7/3)

blank 1 = Feet = y = 7

Therefore, Blank 1 = y = Feet =  7

In other words,

When Yards = 2 1/3, then Feet = 7

Determining Blank 2

Feet = y = 3

Blank 2 = x = yards ?

k = 3

Using the equation

y = kx

Blank 2 = x = yards =  y/k    

Blank 2  = x = yards = 3/3

Blank 2 = x = yards = 1

Therefore, Blank 2 = yards = x = 1

In other words,

When Yards = 1, then Feet = 3

Determining Blank 3

yards = x = 2

Blank 3 = y = Feet ?

k = 3

Using the equation

y = kx

y = Blank 3 = Feet = 3(2)

y = Blank 3 = Feet = 6

Therefore, Blank 3 = Feet = y = 6

In other words,

When Yards = 2, then Feet = 6

Determining Blank 4

Feet = y = 4.5

Blank 4 = x = Yards ?

k = 3

Using the equation

y = kx

x = Blank 4 = y/k

x = Blank 4 = 4.5/3

x = Blank 4 = 1.5

Therefore, Blank 4 = x = Yards= 1.5

In other words,

When Yards = 1.5, then Feet = 4.5

Summary:

Blank 1) 2 1/3 yards : 7 Feet

Blank 2) 1 yards : 3 Feet

Blank 3) 2 yards : 6 Feet

Blank 4) 1.5 yards : 4.5 Feet

Therefore, the constant of proportionality is: k = 3

2. When Deema begins her drive, she is 400 mi from home. She drives at an average rate of 50 mph until she gets

home. Draw a graph to represent this situation?

Answers

Answer:  I can give coordinates (0,400) (1,350) (2,300) (3,250) (4,200) (5,150) (6,100) (7,50) (8,0)

Step-by-step explanation:

Deema starts at 400 which is y-intercept and goes down on a slope of -50 cause we are decreasing 50 mi for every hour she drives.

Hope this helped :) !!!!!!!

The coordinates of the graph representing the given situation are listed below

 A (0 ,400)

 B ( 1 ,350 )

 C (2,300)

 D(3,250)

  E(4, 200)

  F(5, 150)

  G(6, 100)

   H(7, 50)

   I (8, 0)

The graph attached shows the nature of the graph.

Total distance traveled by Deema = 400 miles

The average speed of  Deema = 50 mph

In each 1 hour, 50 miles of distance will be covered

So by the rate of 50 miles per hour the coordinates in this situation are given as follows

Time (X axis)           Distance (Y axis)

  0                                  400

   1                                  350

   2                                 300

   3                                 250

   4                                 200

   5                                 150

   6                                 100

   7                                  50

   8                                   0

The coordinates of the graph are listed above and the nature of graph is shown in the figure attached in the solution.

Option (D)

Step-by-step explanation:

Standard equation of a quadratic function is,

Comparing this function with the given quadratic function,

f(x) = 2x² - 4x - 3

a = 2, b = -4 and c = -3

By using quadratic formula to get the value of x,

x = [tex]\frac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac} }{2a}[/tex]

  = [tex]\frac{-(-4)\pm \sqrt{(-4)^2-4(2)(-3)} }{2(2)}[/tex]

  = [tex]\frac{4\pm\sqrt{16+24}}{4}[/tex]
