Henry is going on a trip. The first leg of his trip is 32 miles, where he drives at a constant rate. The second leg of his trip is 12 miles, where he drives at half the rate of the first
leg. If the total trip takes 1 hour, how fast does Henry drive during the first leg of his trip?

Answers

Answer 1

Henry's rate of movement in the two legs can be determined by applying the formula of speed. Thus, his speed during his first leg is 0.6 hours.

The speed of an object is a measure of how fast it moves in a given time. So that;

Speed = [tex]\frac{Distance}{Time}[/tex]

In the given question, let the rate of his fist leg be represented by x. Thus;

⇒ Time = [tex]\frac{Distance}{Speed}[/tex]

For the first leg of his trip;

Time taken, [tex]T_{1}[/tex]  = [tex]\frac{32}{x}[/tex]

For the second leg of his trip;

Time taken, [tex]T_{2}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{12*2}{x}[/tex]

                   = [tex]\frac{24}{x}[/tex]

Given that the total trip takes 1 hour, then:

[tex]T_{1}[/tex] + [tex]T_{2}[/tex] = 1 hour

[tex]\frac{32}{x}[/tex]  + [tex]\frac{24}{x}[/tex] = 1

[tex]\frac{56}{x}[/tex] = 1

x = 56

Then;

[tex]T_{1}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{32}{x}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{32}{56}[/tex]

    = [tex]\frac{4}{7}[/tex]

[tex]T_{1}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{4}{7}[/tex] hours

[tex]T_{2}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{24}{x}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{24}{56}[/tex]

   = [tex]\frac{3}{7}[/tex]

[tex]T_{2}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{3}{7}[/tex] hours

Henry's speed during the first leg of his trip is [tex]\frac{4}{7}[/tex] hours (0.6 hours).

Answer:

x = 55

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the value of x

3x - 35 = 130 (vertically opposite angles are equal)

3x = 130 +35

3x = 165

x = 165/3

x = 55

Answer:

x= 55

Step-by-step explanation:

3x-35=130

3x=130+35

3x= 165

The ratio for mixing mortar using sand, lime and cement is 3:2:1.

sand
101
lime
cement

Answers

Answer:

Sand: 21 parts.

Lime : 14 parts.

Cement: 7 parts.

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of parts is 3 + 2 + 1 = 6.

So for 42 parts we need:

Sand: 3/6 * 42 = 1/2 * 42 = 21.

Lime:  2/6 * 42 = 1/3 * 42 = 14,

Cement: 1/6 * 42 = 7.

Answer:

x = 7y = 12∠TPS = 140°∠TPQ = 40°∠PRS = 50°

Step-by-step explanation:

The marked angles at P are a linear pair, so are supplementary:

  (5x +5) +(18x+14) = 180

  23x = 161 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 19

  x = 7

Those angle measures are ...

  ∠TPQ = (5·7 +5)° = 40°

  ∠TPS = (18·7 +14)° = 140°

__

The marked angle at R is the complement of the acute angle at P, so we have ...

  3y +14 +40 = 90

  3y = 36

  y = 12

  ∠PRS = (3·12 +14)° = 50°

Kaylee has a 7/12 yard piece of lace that she is using to make doll dresses. She
needs 1/8 yard for each dress. Which expression can be used to show how
many dresses she can make from the lace?

Answers

The expression that can be used to show how  many dresses she can make from the lace is [tex]\frac{7}{12}[/tex] ÷[tex]\frac{1}{8}[/tex]

In order to determine how many dresses can be made from the lace, divide the yards of the lace by how many yards are needed to make the dress

Number of dresses that can be made = [tex]\frac{7}{12}[/tex] ÷ [tex]\frac{1}{8}[/tex]

Solving this equation, 4 dresses can be made from the lace

7/12 x 8/1 = 4.67 dresses

To convert fahrenheit to celsius subtract 32 from the fahrenheit number and then multiply it by 5/9!!

1. a. about -17.78 degrees celsius

work: 0-32 = -32 times 5/9

-32*5 = -160

-160/9 = about -17.78

  b. 0 degrees celsius

work: 32-32 = 0

0*5/9 = 0

   c. about 21.11 degrees celsius

work: 70-32 = 38

38*5/9 = about 21.11

   d. 37 degrees celsius

   work: 98.6-32 = 66.6

66.6*5/9 = 37

   e.  about 37.78 degrees celsius

work: 100-32 = 68

68*5/9 = about 37.78

   f. 100 degrees celsius

work: 212-32 = 180

180*5/9 = 100

celsius to fahrenheit is that number times 9/5, then  + 32

2.  (all of these answers are in degrees FAHRENheit. Make sure to write that!)

a. 32

work: 0*9/5 = 0 and 0+32 = 32

b. 89.6

work: 32*9/5 = 57.6.

57.6+32 = 89.6

c. 158

work: 70*9/5 = 126. 126+32 is 158

d.  209.48

work: 98.6*9/5 = 177.48. 177.48+ 32= 209.48

e. 212

work: 100*9/5 = 180. 180 + 32 = 212

f. 413.6

212*9/5 = 381.6. 381.6+32 = 413.6

What is graph?

A graph contains data of which input maps to which output.

Analysis of this leads to the relations which were used to make it.

For example, if the graph of a function is rising upwards after a certain value of x,  the function must be having increasingly output for inputs greater than that value of x.

If the function crosses x axis at some point, then for some polynomial functions, we have those as roots of the polynomial.

The function that we are given graphed has the point (0,1), this means whichever function f(x) it represents f(0) = 1.

Now, only the cosine function has the property that cos(π) = -1, thus

y = cos (x/2)

because from the graph x = 2π

The function whose graph is given by; cos (1/2 x )
