Answer:
yeah,I think it's 16 ...
I have this math problem I can't solve.
"Evelyn and Meredith decided to kayak 1 mile up and then back in the Humboldt channel.
The rate of the water flowing in the channel was 2 miles per hour. The total time it took them to kayak up and back was 3 hours and 40 minutes. Assuming they were padding their double kayak at a fairly consistent rate, find the rate Evelyn and Meredith were paddling.
Step 2 - Draw a picture to model the problem.
Step 3 - Label variables and create a table.
Step 4 - Write an equation to model the problem.
Step 5 - Solve the equation. Provide supporting work and detail.
Step 6 - Explain the results."
If you can help please do.
Evelyn and Meredith were paddling at a rate of [tex]\frac{3+\sqrt{493}}{11}mph[/tex] which is equivalent to 2.29mph approximately.
Step 2: See attached picture
Step 3: In this case we only have different variables, there is the rate at which Evelyn and Meredith were paddling, the rate at which they moved when rowing upstream, the rate at which they moved when rowing downstream, the time it took them to paddle upstream and the time it took them to paddle downstream.
v = rate at which Evelyn and Meredith were paddling.
[tex]v_{up}[/tex]= velocity at which they were moving when paddling upstream.
[tex]v_{down}[/tex]= velocity at which they were moving when paddling downstreamstream.
[tex]t_{up}[/tex]= time it took them paddling upstream.
[tex]t_{down}[/tex]= time it took them paddling downstream
Se attached picture for the table.
Step 4: Building this equation will require us to combine different equations into a single one. Let's start with the equation for the final rate at which they paddled when rowing upstream.
[tex]v-2=v_{up}[/tex]
When rowing upstream, the current will drag the kayak, so we subtract it from the rate at which they were rowing.
Let's find the final rat at which they moved when rowing downstream.
[tex]v+2=v{down}[/tex]
next, the problem tells us it took them 3 hours and 40 minutes to row up and down the channel so we can convert it into just hours like this:
[tex]40min*\frac{1hr}{60min}=\frac{2}{3}hr[/tex]
[tex]3hr+\frac{2}{3}hr=\frac{11}{3}hr[/tex]
so now we can build our equation for time.
[tex]t_{up}+t_{down}=\frac{11}{3}[/tex]
We also know that the rate is built by dividing the distance over the time it took them to travel the distance, so:
[tex]v_{up}=\frac{1}{t_{up}}[/tex]
[tex]v_{down}=\frac{1}{t_{down}}[/tex]
If we solved each of those equations for their respective times, we would end up with the following:
[tex]t_{up}=\frac{1}{v_{up}}[/tex]
[tex]t_{down}=\frac{1}{v_{down}}[/tex]
so we can now combine all the equations together so we get:
[tex]t_{up}+t_{down}=\frac{11}{3}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{1}{v_{up}}+\frac{1}{v_{down}}=\frac{11}{3}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{1}{v-2}+\frac{1}{v+2}=\frac{11}{3}[/tex]
So this equation models the problem.
Step 5: We can solve this equation by multiplying everything by the LCD
In this case the LCD is:
3(v-2)(v+2)
so, when doing the respective multiplications we end up with:
[tex]\frac{3(v-2)(v+2)}{v-2}+\frac{3(v-2)(v+2)}{v+2}=\frac{11(3)(v-2)(v+2)}{3}[/tex]
We can now simplify to get:
3(v+2)+3(v-2)=11(v+2)(v-2)
We can now do the respective multiplications to get:
[tex]3v+6+3v-6=11(v^{2}-4)[/tex]
and we can further simplify:
[tex]6v=11v^{2}-44[/tex]
Step 5: So we can now solve it by using the quadratic formula, first, we need to rewrite the equation in standard form:
[tex]11v^{2}-6v-44=0[/tex]
So we can now use the quadratic formula:
[tex]v=\frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^{2}-4ac}}{2a}[/tex]
we substitute:
[tex]v=\frac{-(-6) \pm \sqrt{(-6)^{2}-4(11)(-44)}}{2(11)}[/tex]
and simplify:
[tex]v=\frac{6 \pm \sqrt{36+1936}}{22}[/tex]
[tex]v=\frac{6 \pm \sqrt{1972}}{22}[/tex]
[tex]v=\frac{6 \pm \sqrt{4(493)}}{22}[/tex]
[tex]v=\frac{6 \pm 2\sqrt{493}}{22}[/tex]
[tex]v=\frac{3 \pm \sqrt{493}}{11}[/tex]
this gives us two possible results:
[tex]v=\frac{3 + \sqrt{493}}{11}[/tex] and [tex]v=\frac{3 - \sqrt{493}}{11}[/tex]
Step 6: We only pick the first result since it's the positive result. We don't take the second one because a negative result represents the kayak moving in the opposite direction which is not how the situation was modeled.

Step-by-step explanation:
Triangle ABC and CYZ are similar so the angles would also be same
Amelia, Luis, Shauna, and Clarence used different approaches to solve the inequality
7.2b + 6.5 > 4.8b – 8.1.
Amelia started by subtracting 7.2b from both sides to get 6.5 > –2.4b – 8.1.
Luis started by subtracting 4.8b from both sides to get 2.4b + 6.5 < – 8.1.
Shauna started by subtracting 6.5 from both sides to get 7.2b > 4.8b – 14.6.
Clarence started by adding 8.1 to both sides to get 7.2b + 14.6 > 4.8b.
Which student’s first step was incorrect, and why?
Amelia’s, because the variable term must be isolated on the left side
Luis’s, because he flipped the inequality sign when he subtracted
Shauna’s, because she did not apply the subtraction property of equality properly
Clarence’s, because the terms he added together were not like terms
Answer:
Luis’s, because he flipped the inequality sign when he subtracted
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
7.2b + 6.5 > 4.8b – 8.1.
Amelia started by subtracting 7.2b from both sides to get 6.5 > –2.4b – 8.1.
Amelia:
7.2b + 6.5 - 7.2b > 4.8b – 8.1 - 7.2b
6.5 > -2.4b - 8.1
Correct
Luis started by subtracting 4.8b from both sides to get 2.4b + 6.5 < – 8.1.
7.2b + 6.5 - 4.8b > 4.8b – 8.1 - 4.8b
2.4b + 6.5 > -8.1
Incorrect
Shauna started by subtracting 6.5 from both sides to get 7.2b > 4.8b – 14.6
7.2b + 6.5 - 6.5 > 4.8b – 8.1 - 6.5
7.2b > 4.8b - 14.6
Correct
Clarence started by adding 8.1 to both sides to get 7.2b + 14.6 > 4.8b.
7.2b + 6.5 + 8.1 > 4.8b – 8.1 + 8.1
7.2b + 14.6 > 4.8b
Correct
what is the measure of angle TSU?
Answer:
m<TSU = 65
Step-by-step explanation:
As one can see, the measure of angle (RST) is (90) degrees. This is indicated by the box around the angle. As a general rule, when there is a box around an angle, the angle measure if (90) degrees. It is also given that the measure of angle (RSU) is (25) degrees. As per the given diagram, the sum of the measures of angles (RSU) and (UST) is (RST). Therefore, one can form an equation and solve for the measure of angle (UST).
(RSU) + (UST) + (RST)
Substitute,
25 + (UST) = 90
Inverse operations,
25 + (UST) = 90
UST = 65
(<UST) is another way of naming angle (TSU).
Answer:
∠ TSU = 65°
Step-by-step explanation:
∠ RST = 90°
∠ RSU + ∠TSU = ∠ RST , that is
25° + ∠ TSU = 90° ( subtract 25° from both sides )
∠ TSU = 65°
At a point 25 ft. from the base of a totem pole, the angle of elevation of the top of the pole is 50.1 °. How tall is the totem pole to the nearest foot?
Answer:
height ≈ 30 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
The situation is modelled by a right triangle.
let h be the height of the totem pole, then
tan50.1° = [tex]\frac{opposite}{adjacent}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{h}{25}[/tex] ( multiply both sides by 25 )
25 × tan50.1° = h , then
h ≈ 30 ft ( to the nearest foot )

Answer:
x = 42.5
Step-by-step explanation:
A triangle inscribed inside of a circle using the diameter of the circle as it's hypotenuse is a right triangle ( a 90 degree triangle ) where the angle opposite of the hypotenuse is the 90 degree angle ( angle C )
Hence angle C = 90
If angle C = 2x + 5
Then 2x + 5 = 90
Notice that we just created an equation that we can use to solve for x
We now solve for x algebraically
2x + 5 = 90
Step 1 subtract 5 from both sides
2x + 5 - 5 = 90 - 5
Outcome: 2x = 85
Step 2 divide both sides by 2
2x/2 = 85/2
Outcome: x = 42.5

A student draws two parabolas on graph paper. Both parabolas cross the x-axis at (-4, 0) and (6.0). The y-intercept of
the first parabola is (0,–12). The y-intercept of the second parabola is (0, -24). What is the positive difference between
the a values for the two functions that describe the parabolas ? Write your answer as a decimal rounded to the nearest
tenth.
Answer:
∆a = 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
parabolas cross the x-axis at (-4, 0) and (6, 0)
y = a(x + 4)(x - 6)
At the y-intercept x = 0
y = a(0 + 4)(0 - 6)
y = -24a
-----------------------
y-intercept of the first parabola is (0,–12)
-12 = -24a
a = 1/2
-----------------------
y-intercept of the second parabola is (0, -24)
-24 = -24a
a = 1
----------------------
What is the positive difference between the a values
∆a = 1 - 1/2
∆a = 1/2

Answer:
$843.67
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use a proportion to solve this problem:
12 : 100 = x : 896
x =(896 * 12)/100 = $107,52
896 - 107.52 = $788,48 (price of the computer after the discount)
7 : 100 = x : 788,48
x = (788,48 * 7)/100 = $55,1936
788.48 + 55,1936 = 843,6736 = $843.67 (final price)

which equation is represented by the table
Answer:
B. b = 3a + 2
Step-by-step explanation:
We can write the equation in slope-intercept form as b = ma + c, where,
m = slope/rate of change
c = y-intercept/initial value
✔️Find m using any two given pair of values, say (2, 8) and (4, 14):
Rate of change (m) = change in b/change in a
m = (14 - 8)/(4 - 2)
m = 6/2
m = 3
✔️Find c by substituting (a, b) = (2, 8) and m = 3 into b = ma + c. Thus:
8 = 3(2) + c
8 = 6 + c
8 - 6 = c
2 = c
c = 2
✔️Write the equation by substituting m = 3 and c = 2 into b = ma + c. Thus:
b = 3a + 2
