A bird leaves it's nest and travels 15 miles per hour downwind for x hours. On the return trip, the bird travels 3 miles per hour slower and has 2 miles left after x hours. A. What is the distance of the entire trip? ___ Miles B. How long does the entire trip take? __hours ___minutes and ___ seconds

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance = Speed * time

If a bird leaves it's nest and travels 15 miles per hour downwind for x hours, the distance covered will be:

D = 15x

x = D/15 ....... 1

If on the return trip, the bird travels 3 miles per hour slower and has 2 miles left after x hours

Her speed = 15 - 3 = 12mi/hour

If she has 2 miles left after x hours, new distance will be D-2, using the formula for distance:

D+2 = 12x

x = D-2/12  ....... 2

Equate 1 and 2:

D/15 = D-2/12

Cross multiply

12D = 15(D-2)

12D = 15D - 30

12D-15D = -30

-3D = -30

D = 10 miles

The distance for the entire trip will be D + (D-2) = 10 + (10-2)

= 10 + 8

= 18 miles

To get the time x, we will substitute D = 10 into equation1

D = 15x

10 = 15x

x = 10/15

To minutes

x = 10/15 * 60

x = 40 minutes

For the going trip

Time taken = x hours

Return trip = x hours

Total time for the entire trip = x+x = 2x

= 2(40)

= 80 minutes

Hence the total time taken for the entire trio will be 1 hour 20minutes

The simple interest formula is I = Prt, where I represents simple interest on an amount, P, for t years at a rate of r, where r is expressed as a decimal. What is the amount of money, P, that will generate $40 in interest at a 10% interest rate over 5 years?

Answers

Answer:

$80

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we are given The simple interest formula as I = Prt,

where l = simple interest on an amount= $40

t= years=5years

at a rate r= 10%

The rate= 10/100= 0.1

Then since we are looking for P, we can make P subject of formula from this expression;

I = Prt

P=I/rt

P= 40/(0.1 ×5)

P= 40/0.5

P= 80

therefore, the amount of money p that is needed is $80

Answer:

the answer would be $80. :)

is 10/2 an irrational number?

Answers

Answer:

yes it is because it is expressed in the form of a p/q

Step-by-step explanation:

If a number is expressed in the form of p/q then it is a rational number. Here p and q are integers, and q is not equal to 0. A rational number should have a numerator and denominator. Examples: 10/2, 30/3, 100/5.

so yes 10/2 is a rational number

oh and i mean yes its rational no its not irrational :)

No, it is not an irrational number.

Irrational numbers are those who cannot be turned into a fraction.

10/2 is a fraction. Therefore, it is a Rational number.

What is the value of x?

Answers

Answer:

14

Step-by-step explanation:

∠AOB is a straight angle, meaning that it is 180°.  Since ∠AOC, ∠COD, and ∠DOB are within ∠AOB, the sum of all of the angles is equal to 180°.

∠AOC + ∠COD + ∠DOB = ∠AOB

(5x) + (3x + 30) + (2x + 10) = 180

5x + 3x + 30 + 2x + 10 = 180

10x + 30 + 10 = 180

10x + 40 = 180

10x + 40 - 40 = 180 - 40

10x = 140

10x/10 = 140/10

Help with these math questions grade 12

Answers

Answer:

1. 15.1%

2. 8.3%

3. 12%

4. 25%

Step-by-step explanation:

1.

percent change = (new number - old number)/(old number) * 100%

percent change = (21300 - 18500)/(18500) * 100%

percent change = 15.1%

A positive percent change is a percent increase.

Answer: The percent increase is 15.1%.

2.

percent change = (new number - old number)/(old number) * 100%

percent change = (298000 - 325000)/(325000) * 100%

percent change = -8.3%

A negative percent change is a percent decrease.

Answer: The percent decrease is 8.3%.

3.

percent change = (new number - old number)/(old number) * 100%

percent change = (110 - 125)/(125) * 100%

percent change = -12%

A negative percent change is a percent decrease.

Answer: The percent decrease is 12%.

4.

percent change = (new number - old number)/(old number) * 100%

percent change = (1500 - 2000)/(2000) * 100%

percent change = -25%

A negative percent change is a percent decrease.

Answer: The percent decrease is 25%.

Select the equation of the line parallel to y=-4x-6 the
equation and that passes through the point (1, 2).
O y=-4x+6
O y=4x-4
O y=-4x-4
O y = 4x+6

Answers

Answer:

[tex]y=-4x+6[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

If you are looking for a parallel line with just the equation then look for an equation with the same slope and different Y intercept. After you find that just check and see if it passes the coordinate.

[tex]2=-4(1)+6[/tex]

[tex]2=-4+6[/tex]

[tex]2=2[/tex]

If it works you have your answer!

The equation of the line parallel to y = -4x - 6 and passing through (1, 2) is

y = -4x + 6.

The slope of y = -4x - 6 is -4.

passing through the point (1, 2)

the new line is parallel to the original line, it will have the same slope (-4).

Use the point-slope form of a linear equation to write the equation of the new line. The point-slope form is y - y1 = m(x - x1), where m is the slope, and (x1, y1) is the given point.

substituting values,

y - 2 = -4(x - 1)

y - 2 = -4x + 4

y = -4x + 6

y=2(x²+18x+85)
Find the vertex of x²+18x+85

This is written of the form ax²+bx+c

a=1, b=18, c=85

The axis of symmetry is -b/2a
The axis of symmetry is the x term of your vertex (h,k)

So we have

h=-(18)/2

h=-9

k=f(-9) given that f(x) is x²+18x+85

(-9)²+18(-9)+85

81-162+85

-81+85

4

So your k value is 4

So because you’re vertex is (h,k) and since we found that h=-9 and k=4, your vertex is (-9,4)
