A mouse is traveling at a rate of 100 feet per hour. One half hour later, a snake smells the

mouse and follows the path of the mouse at a rate of 200 feet per hour. In how many hours

will the snake catch up to the mouse?

Answers

Answer 1

Let, snake catches the mouse in t hours. Till then mouse is travelling from

( t + 1.5 ) hours.

Distance, travelled by mouse in t hours is, [tex]d = 100(t+ 1.5)[/tex] .

To catch the mouse snake had to travel the same distance d in  t hours.

So,

[tex]200t = 100( t + 1.5 )\\\\2t = t + 1.5\\\\t = 1.5 \ hours[/tex]

Therefore, snake will catch mouse in 1.5 hours.

1. The President is hoisting the flag, but the line has gotten stuck. A
Hardy wants to fix it. He used a 15m ladder and placed it 9m away
base of flag pole. Find the height of flag.

Answers

Answer:

the height of the flag = 12cm

Step-by-step explanation:

inclide ladder length = 15m (hypotenuse)

distance between ladder foot and flag foot= 9m (base)

according to Pythagoras theorem,

(h)^2 = (p)^2 + (b)^2

(15)^2 = (p)^2 + (9)^2

(p)^2 = (15)^2 - (9)^2

(p)^2 = 225-81

p = √144

p= 12 cm

Specify the set of B by giving a written description of It’s element where B={ 0,1,4,9,16,25}

Answers

Answer:

B = { square numbers less than 30 }.

or

B = {x/x is square of a whole number; [tex]0 \leq x \leq 5[/tex] }

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the set B

B={ 0,1,4,9,16,25}

Let us check the elements in set B.

[tex]x = 0 = 0^{2}[/tex]

[tex]x\:=\:1\:=\:1^2[/tex]

[tex]x\:=\:4\:=\:2^2[/tex]

[tex]x\:=\:9\:=\:3^2[/tex]

[tex]x\:=\:16\:=\:4^2[/tex]

[tex]x\:=\:25\:=\:5^2[/tex]

It is clear that each element in set B is a square of a whole number.

Thus, we can specify set of B by giving a written description of Its element in a variety of ways, such as:

B = { square numbers less than 30 }.

or

B = {x/x is square of a whole number; [tex]0 \leq x \leq 5[/tex] }

Answers

Answer:

0.008

Step-by-step explanation:

A probability is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.

Total outcomes:

He will visit 5 different cities. So the total number of ways this can happen is an arrangment of 5 elements, that is:

[tex]T = A_{5} = 5! = 120[/tex]

Desired outcome:

In alphabetical order, so only one possible outcome, which means that [tex]D = 1[/tex]

Probability:

[tex]p = \frac{D}{T} = \frac{1}{120} = 0.008[/tex

the formula of ONE INTERIOR ANGLE of a REGULAR polygon.

Answers

Answer:

180° - (360/n)°, where n is the number of sides of the polygon.

Step-by-step explanation:

Polygon has n sides.

Divide the polygon radially into n congruent, isosceles triangles.

For each triangle:

 vertex angle = (360/n)°

   sum of base angles = 180° - vertex angle = 180° - (360/n)°

Each interior angle of the n-gon = 180° - (360/n)°

A DVD player is regularly priced at 79.95 and is on sale for 30% off. What is the discount?

Answers

Answer:

$2.40 or $77.55

Step-by-step explanation:

I don't know if you are asking for how much off or what, so I'm doing both

First, we have to find how much we have to take off or what is 30% of 79.95 so our equation is:

79.95 x 0.03 = 2.40

So 30% of 79.95 is $2.40

To find how much our new price sale is, we have to take that $2.40 off so our equation is:

79.95 - 2.4 = 77.55

So our discount price is $77.55

hope this helps:)

Answer:

  x = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Step(i):-

From graph,

             The angle of the triangle ∝ = 45°

   Given hypotenuse of the triangle

              AC = 12√2  and AB = x

Step(ii):-

we will choose sine function

            [tex]sin\alpha = \frac{opposite side}{hypotenuse}[/tex]

            [tex]sin\alpha = \frac{x}{12\sqrt{2} }[/tex]

 Given that an angle ∝ = 45°

           [tex]sin45 = \frac{x}{12\sqrt{2} }[/tex]

           [tex]\frac{1}{\sqrt{2} } = \frac{x}{12\sqrt{2} }[/tex]

           [tex]\frac{1}{1 } = \frac{x}{12}[/tex]

          x = 12
