Gemma recently rode her bicycle to visit her friend who lives 6 miles away. On her way there, her average speed was 16 miles per hour faster than on her way home. If Gemma spent a total of 1 hour bicycle, find the two rates.

Answers

Answer 1

first speed --- x mph

return speed -- x+16 mph

6/x + 6/(x+16) = 1

times each term by x(x+16)

6(x+16) + 6x = x(x+16)

x^2 + 4x - 96 = 0

(x-8)(x+12) = 0

x = 8 or x is a negative

her first speed was 8 mph

her return speed was 24 mph

check:

6/8 + 6/24 = 1 , that's good!

You bought a car that was $25500 and the value depreciates by 4.5% each year.

How much will the car be worth after 5 years?

How much after 8 years?

Answers

Answer:

(a) 20256.15625

(b) 17642.78546

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) There's a formula for this problem y = A(d)^t where, A is the initial value you are given, d is the growth or decay rate and t is the time period. So, in this case, as the car cost is decreasing it is a decay problem and we can write the formula as such; y = A(1-R)^t

So, in 5 years the car will be worth, 25500(1-4.5%)^5 or 20256.15625 dollars

(b) And after 8 years the car will be worth 25500(1-4.5%)^8 or 17642.78546 dollars.

Unit sales for new product ABC have varied in the first seven months of this year as follows: Month Jan Feb Mar Apr May Jun Jul Unit Sales 148 329 491 167 228 285 441 What is the (population) standard deviation of the data

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\sigma = 121.53[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Required

The population standard deviation

First, calculate the population mean

[tex]\mu = \frac{\sum x}{n}[/tex]

This gives:

[tex]\mu = \frac{148+ 329+ 491 +167+ 228+285+ 441}{7}[/tex]

[tex]\mu = \frac{2089}{7}[/tex]

[tex]\mu = 298.43[/tex]

The population standard deviation is:

[tex]\sigma = \sqrt{\frac{\sum(x - \bar x)^2}{n}}[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]\sigma = \sqrt{\frac{(148 - 298.43)^2 + ..........+ (441- 298.43)^2}{7}}[/tex]

[tex]\sigma = \sqrt{\frac{103387.7143}{7}}[/tex]

[tex]\sigma = \sqrt{14769.6734714}[/tex]

[tex]\sigma = 121.53[/tex]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

every thing looks good,  except the question says  "round"   and soooooo,  if you are rounding to the 2nd decimal place,  then the next two decimal places are  54,      or  50.2654   so, to round that, round up , so your final answer would look like   50.27   :)  see?

Answer:

  50.24 inches  (or 50.2 inches)

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for circumference in terms of radius is ...

  C = 2πr

Using the given values for radius and for pi, the circumference is ...

  C = 2(3.14)(8 in) = 50.24 in

__

Additional comment

If you use a more accurate value of pi, the rounded value is 50.27 in. That is not the value requested by this problem. It helps to follow directions.

If you like, you can round to 50.2, since only one decimal place is required in the result.

Brady starts off with 12 coins

And buys 6 more coins every year

So add 6 to find number of coins he will have the next year until we've done it five times ( because we want to find how many he will have after 5 years )

12 ( 1st year )

Add 6

12 + 6 = 18 ( 2nd year )

Add 6

18 + 6 = 24 ( 3rd year )

Add 6

24 + 6 = 30 ( 4th year )

Add 6

30 + 6 = 36 ( 5th year )

By the fifth year he will have 36 coins and the sequence would be

12, 18, 24, 30, 36

Which corresponds with answer choice C

2

15, 19, 23, 27, ?

We want to find the next term

To do so we must find the common difference

We can do this by subtracting the last given term by the term before it

27 - 23 = 4

Just to clarify we can do the terms before those

19 - 15 = 4

So the common difference is 4

Now to find the next term we simply add 4 to the last given term

27 + 4 = 31

The next term would be 31

3. Cumulative property of addition states that you can add any 3 numbers in a different order and they will be the same

a + b + 2 = 2 + a + b

4. The GCF ( greatest common factor ) is the greatest number that the two numbers can be divided by

18a and 24ab

Factors of 18

2 , 9 , 6, 3 , 1 and 18

Factors of 24

24, 1, 2, 12, 6, 4, 3 and 8

The greatest factor that both 18 and 24 have is 6

The GCF would be 6a ( not 6 ) because both numbers share a common variable (a) ( 18a , 24ab )

Given that m∠abc=70° and m∠bcd=110°. Is it possible (consider all cases): Line AB intersects line CD?

Answers

The line AB and CD are parallel. Then it is impossible that the line AB intersects the line CD.

What are parallel lines?

When the distance between the lines is constant, then the lines are called parallel lines. The lines do not intersect when they are separated from each other. And the slope of the lines is equal.

Given that ∠ABC = 70° and ∠BCD = 110°.

Then the line AB and the line CD makes the same angle with the line BC.

Hence, the line AB and CD are parallel.

Then it is impossible that the line AB intersects the line CD.

For this problem what I did was add all the measurements and I got 48 m. However, it is wrong. How do I go about solving the perimeter then?

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  66 m

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter is the sum of the measures of all of the sides. There are two side measures that are missing from the diagram.

The missing horizontal measure is ...

  17 m - 8 m = 9 m

The missing vertical measure is ...

  16m -7 m = 9 m.

If you add these to the sum you already calculated, you will get the correct answer:

  48 m + 9 m + 9 m = 66 m . . . perimeter of the figure

_____

If you're paying attention, you see that the sum of the measures of the two shorter horizontal segments is the same as the measure of the longer horizontal segment. Likewise, the sum of the measurements of the two shorter vertical segments is the same as that of the longer vertical segment.

In other words, the perimeter of this (and any) L-shaped figure is the same as the perimeter of a rectangle having the same horizontal and vertical dimensions as the long sides of the figure.

  P = 2(17 m +16 m) = 2(33 m) = 66 m

Answer:  P + 6 - s

=================================================

Explanation:

We undo the "minus 6" by adding 6 to both sides.

Also, we undo the "+s" by subtracting s from both sides

-----------

So we have these steps

P = r+s-6

P+6 = r+s-6+6 .... adding 6 to both sides

P+6 = r+s

r+s = P+6

r+s-s = P+6-s ..... subtracting s from both sides

r = P + 6 - s

Answer:

P+6-s=r

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

We are given the equation P=r+s-6 and we need to solve for r

To do that, we need to isolate r onto one side, and have everything else on the other.

Here is the equation:

P=r+s-6

start by adding 6 to both sides to clear it from the right side

P+6=r+s

now subtract s from both sides to clear it from the right side

P+6-s=r

now everything that isn't r is on the left side, and r is by itself on the right side. P+6-s=r is the answer.

Replace y with t, and replace x with n, since those are the variables in this situation:

t = [tex]\frac{k}{n}[/tex]

Plug in 3 as t and 25 as n, and solve for k:
