Derek and his friends drove from San Francisco to Lake Tahoe to go skiing. The average speed that they traveled during each leg of the trip is shown on the map. They drove 30 min in the city, 3 h on the highway, and 30 min up the mountain.
Write a piecewise function to represent the distance that Derek traveled during his four hour trip.

Answers

Answer 1

The piecewise function of the travel of the car is now described in detail:

[tex]x (t) = 30\cdot t,\,0 \le t < 0.5[/tex]  

[tex]x(t) = 15 + 60\cdot (t-0.5)[/tex],  [tex]0.5\le t < 3.5[/tex]  

[tex]x(t) = 195 + 45\cdot (t-3.5)[/tex],  [tex]3.5\le t \le 4[/tex]  

How to build a piecewise function

A piecewise function is a group of functions working on certain intervals, which corresponds to three expressions in this case. Likewise, the car moves at constant speed and the resulting distance is equal to the sum of initial position ([tex]x_{o}[/tex]), in miles, and the product of speed (v), in miles per hour, and time (t), in hours.

Then, the piecewise function of the travel of the car is now described in detail:

[tex]x (t) = 30\cdot t,\,0 \le t < 0.5[/tex]   (1)

[tex]x(t) = 15 + 60\cdot (t-0.5)[/tex],  [tex]0.5\le t < 3.5[/tex]   (2)

[tex]x(t) = 195 + 45\cdot (t-3.5)[/tex],  [tex]3.5\le t \le 4[/tex]    (3)

Remark

The map with key information of velocities is missing. We proceed to show the required information:

City - 30 miles per hour

Highway - 60 miles per hour

Mountain - 45 miles per hour

Jade works as a decorator.
She is paid £22.80 per hour for the first 35 hours she works each week.
She is paid 15% more per hour for each extra hour she works.
One week, Jade was paid £981.54
In total, how many hours did she work that week?
You must show your working.

Answers

Let's assume that all hours she worked were the first 35 hours of the week.

She would've made £22.80 x 35 = £798

So, she would've made 981.54 - 798 = 183.54 less than the actual amount

She is paid 15% more per hour after the first 35 hours -> She will get £26.22 per hour.

So, she work for 183.54 : 26.22 = 7(hours) after the first 35 hours

So in total, she worked for 35 + 7 = 42(hours).

Answer:

42 hours

We know she works at least 35 hours, so 35x22.80=798. This is her base pay without any extra hours.

981.54-798 =183.54. This is the amount she earnt for working extra hours. if we divide this by the rate she earns for extra hours (22.80x1.15=26.22), 184.54/26.22=7, we know she worked an additional 7 hours.

and 35 plus 7 = 42 :)

help... Reference books are for use in the library. There are 16 bookshelves for the reference books. After use, they need to be returned to a special collection box for shelving. If 128 reference books are in use and 84 reference books are in the collection box, how many reference books are on the shelf?

Answers

Answer:

Your answer would be:
13.25

128 books in use + 84 books in the collection box =212 reference books on the shelf

212 books / 16 shelves =13.25 per shelf

Logically the answer 13.25 wouldn't make sense because you can't put a 25th of a book on a shelf, so that means you will need to put the "0.25 book" away. Technically your answer would be 13. Due to the question, however, it would be 13.25.

9. (a) 1/4

   (b) remove 3 alphabet cards

   (c)  add 4 number cards

10.  1/8

Step-by-step explanation:

Question 9

Given:

8 number cards10 alphabet cards6 picture cards

⇒ total number of cards = 8 + 10 + 6 = 24 cards

[tex]\mathsf{Probability \ of \ an \ event \ occurring = \dfrac{Number \ of \ ways \ it \ can \ occur}{Total \ number \ of \ outcomes}}[/tex]

(a) P(picture card) = 6/24 = 1/4

(b) P(alphabet card) = 10/24 = 5/12

If we remove 3 alphabet cards from the box

⇒ number of alphabet cards = 10 - 3 = 7

⇒ total number of cards = 24 - 3 = 21

Therefore, P(alphabet card) = 7/21 = 1/3

(c)  P(number card) = 8/24 = 1/3

If we add 4 number cards to the box:

⇒ number of number cards = 8 + 4 = 12

⇒ total number of cards = 24 + 4 = 28

Therefore, P(number card) = 12/28 = 3/7

--------------------------------------------------------------------

Question 10

Given:

ΔSDR = ΔPRQLeg length of ΔSDR and ΔPRQ = 4 cm

⇒ area of ΔSDR = area of ΔPRQ = 1/2 × 4 × 4 = 8 cm²

As PR = SD = 4cm

Area of rectangle = (4 + 4) × (12 + 4) = 128 cm²

P(point lies in ΔSDR) = 8/128 = 1/16

P(point lies in ΔPRQ) = 8/128 = 1/16

P(point lies in ΔSDR) OR P(point lies in ΔPRQ) = 1/16 + 1/16 = 2/16 = 1/8

Find two positive consecutive
even integers such that the
square of the smaller integer
decreased by five times the
larger integer is 536.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]26[/tex] and [tex]28[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

Let [tex]x[/tex] denote the smaller one of the two even integers ([tex]x > 0[/tex] since both integers are positive.) The larger one of the two consecutive even integer would be [tex](x + 2)[/tex].

The square of the smaller integer would be [tex]x^{2}[/tex].

Five times the larger integer would be [tex]5\, (x + 2)[/tex].

Subtract five times the larger integer from the square of the smaller integer to get [tex](x^{2} - 5\, (x + 2))[/tex].

The value of this expression should be equal to [tex]536[/tex]. In other words:

[tex]x^{2} - 5\, (x + 2) = 536[/tex].

Rewrite and simplify this quadratic equation:

[tex]x^{2} + (-5)\, x + (- 546) = 0[/tex].

[tex]a = 1[/tex].[tex]b = (-5)[/tex].[tex]c = (-546)[/tex]

Apply the quadratic formula to find possible values of [tex]x[/tex]:

[tex]\begin{aligned}x_{1} &= \frac{-b + \sqrt{b^{2} - 4\, a\, c}}{2\, a} \\ &= \frac{-(-5) + \sqrt{(-5)^{2} - 4 \times 1 \times (-546)}}{2}\\ &= \frac{5 + \sqrt{2209}}{2} \\ &=\frac{5 + 47}{2} \\ &= 26\end{aligned}[/tex].

[tex]\begin{aligned}x_{2} &= \frac{-b - \sqrt{b^{2} - 4\, a\, c}}{2\, a} \\ &= \frac{5 - \sqrt{2209}}{2} \\ &=\frac{5 - 47}{2} \\ &= -21\end{aligned}[/tex].

Since [tex]x > 0[/tex] (both numbers are supposed to be positive), [tex]x = 26[/tex] would be the only valid solution.

Therefore, the two integers would be [tex]x = 26[/tex] and [tex]x + 2 = 28[/tex].
