Aya and Mary are 12 miles apart on a path when they start moving toward each other.
Aya runs at a constant speed of 5 miles per hour, and Mary walks at a constant speed
of 3 miles per hour. How long does it take until Aya and Mary meet?
Pleaseee help

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

1.5 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follows,

Aya and Mary distance = 12 miles

Let, meeting point from Aya = Z miles

So, Aya covers Z miles to reach Mary.

Hence, Mary covers (12 - Z ) miles to reach Aya

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

Aya = [tex]\frac{Z}{5}[/tex]

Mary = [tex]\frac{12-Z}{3}[/tex]

If, same time taken, then we can solve by following method,

[tex]\frac{Z}{5} = \frac{12-Z}{3}[/tex]

By solving the equation, we get

Z = 60 ÷ 8

Or Z = 7.5 miles

Hence, time taken for both to meet = 7.5 ÷ 5

= 1.5 hours

Suppose y varies directly with x. If y = 4 when x = 0.4, what is y when x is 5?

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

y = kx, where k is a real constant.

When x = 0.4, y = 4.

=> (4) = (0.4)k, k = 10.

Hence when x = 5,

y = kx = (10)(5) = 50.

The answer is 50.

Answer:

Please check the explanation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the inequality

-2x < 10

-6 < -2x

Part a) Is x = 0 a solution to both inequalities

FOR  -2x < 10

substituting x = 0 in -2x < 10

-2x < 10

-3(0) < 10

0 < 10

TRUE!

Thus, x = 0 satisfies the inequality -2x < 10.

∴ x = 0 is the solution to the inequality -2x < 10.

FOR  -6 < -2x

substituting x = 0 in -6 < -2x

-6 < -2x

-6 < -2(0)

-6 < 0

TRUE!

Thus, x = 0 satisfies the inequality -6 < -2x

∴ x = 0 is the solution to the inequality -6 < -2x

Conclusion:

x = 0 is a solution to both inequalites.

Part b) Is x = 4 a solution to both inequalities

FOR  -2x < 10

substituting x = 4 in -2x < 10

-2x < 10

-3(4) < 10

-12 < 10

TRUE!

Thus, x = 4 satisfies the inequality -2x < 10.

∴ x = 4 is the solution to the inequality -2x < 10.

FOR  -6 < -2x

substituting x = 4 in -6 < -2x

-6 < -2x

-6 < -2(4)

-6 < -8

FALSE!

Thus, x = 4 does not satisfiy the inequality -6 < -2x

∴ x = 4 is the NOT a solution to the inequality -6 < -2x.

Conclusion:

x = 4 is NOT a solution to both inequalites.

Part c) Find another value of x that is a solution to both inequalities.

solving -2x < 10

[tex]-2x\:<\:10[/tex]

Multiply both sides by -1 (reverses the inequality)

[tex]\left(-2x\right)\left(-1\right)>10\left(-1\right)[/tex]

Simplify

[tex]2x>-10[/tex]

Divide both sides by 2

[tex]\frac{2x}{2}>\frac{-10}{2}[/tex]

[tex]x>-5[/tex]

[tex]-2x<10\quad :\quad \begin{bmatrix}\mathrm{Solution:}\:&\:x>-5\:\\ \:\mathrm{Interval\:Notation:}&\:\left(-5,\:\infty \:\right)\end{bmatrix}[/tex]

solving -6 < -2x

-6 < -2x

switch sides

[tex]-2x>-6[/tex]

Multiply both sides by -1 (reverses the inequality)

[tex]\left(-2x\right)\left(-1\right)<\left(-6\right)\left(-1\right)[/tex]

Simplify

[tex]2x<6[/tex]

Divide both sides by 2

[tex]\frac{2x}{2}<\frac{6}{2}[/tex]

[tex]x<3[/tex]

[tex]-6<-2x\quad :\quad \begin{bmatrix}\mathrm{Solution:}\:&\:x<3\:\\ \:\mathrm{Interval\:Notation:}&\:\left(-\infty \:,\:3\right)\end{bmatrix}[/tex]

Thus, the two intervals:

[tex]\left(-\infty \:,\:3\right)[/tex]

[tex]\left(-5,\:\infty \:\right)[/tex]

The intersection of these two intervals would be the solution to both inequalities.

[tex]\left(-\infty \:,\:3\right)[/tex]  and [tex]\left(-5,\:\infty \:\right)[/tex]

As x = 1 is included in both intervals.

so x = 1 would be another solution common to both inequalities.

SUBSTITUTING x = 1

FOR  -2x < 10

substituting x = 1 in -2x < 10

-2x < 10

-3(1) < 10

-3 < 10

TRUE!

Thus, x = 1 satisfies the inequality -2x < 10.

∴ x = 1 is the solution to the inequality -2x < 10.

FOR  -6 < -2x

substituting x = 1 in -6 < -2x

-6 < -2x

-6 < -2(1)

-6 < -2

TRUE!

Thus, x = 1 satisfies the inequality -6 < -2x

∴ x = 1 is the solution to the inequality -6 < -2x.

Conclusion:

x = 1 is a solution common to both inequalites.

45+5t=45
solving for t​

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The first thing you want to do is isolate the varible t. So you going to subrtact the 45 from both sides, which leaves you with, 5t=0. Next you are going to divide 5 from both sides, which leaves you with t=0. To make sure its right, plug it in. 45+5(0)=45. 45=45.

F. During the first part of the trip, the bus traveled at a constant speed of 45 miles per hour.

Answer:

A , E, F

Step-by-step explanation:

Three statements are true based on the graph the correct options are D, E,F

How to find the speed of an object?

If the object is going linearly, and at a constant speed, then the speed of that object is given by the distance it traveled to the time it took to travel that distance.

If the object traveled D distance in T units of time, then that object's speed is

[tex]Speed = S = \dfrac{\: Distance \: traveled}{\: Time \: taken} = \dfrac{D}{T} \: \rm unit \: length/unit \: time[/tex]

For option D, we can see in the graph the bus has completed 200 miles of distance between the 2nd and 3rd hour. So, there are more than 3hours remaining, and option D is correct

For option E, it is clear from the graph that after 4 hours the distance traveled by the bus is 130miles

For option F; the distance traveled in first 4 hours= total distance from home - remaining distance after 4 hours

310-130=180miles

time= 4hours

speed=distance/time

speed= 180/4= 45miles per hour

hence, D, E,F are true

How to solve real number arithmetic

Answers

Answer/Step-by-step explanation

1. When adding real numbers with the same sign the sum will have the same sign as the numbers added.

2. When adding real numbers with different signs you subtract the lesser absolute value from the greater one. The sum will then have the same sign as the number with the greater absolute value.

3. There are a couple of properties of addition:

The additive commutative property tells us that the order in which you add the numbers does not change the sum.

4. And the additive associative property tells us that it also that the order in which we group three or more numbers does not affect the sum.

5. The additive identity property tells us that the sum of a number and 0 is always the number.

6. And the additive inverse property tells us that if you add a number with its opposite you will always get 0

Use the explicit or recursive formulas for the geometric sequence 45,135,140,1215,3645... To the sum of the first 9 terms of the sequence

Answers

Answer:

[tex]S_9 = 442845[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]Sequence: 45,135,405,1215,3645[/tex]

Required:

The sum of the first 9 terms

We'll solve this question using the explicit formula:

Because it is a geometric sequence, we first calculate the common ratio (r).

[tex]r = \frac{T_n}{T_{n-1}}[/tex]

Let n = 2;

So, we have:

[tex]r = \frac{T_2}{T_{2-1}}[/tex]

[tex]r = \frac{T_2}{T_1}[/tex]

[tex]T_2 = 135; T_1 = 45[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]r = \frac{135}{45}[/tex]

[tex]r = 3[/tex]

Explicitly, the sum of  n terms of a geometric sequence is:

[tex]S_n = \frac{a(r^n - 1)}{r - 1}[/tex]

[tex]a = T_1 = 45[/tex]

[tex]r = 3[/tex]

[tex]n = 9[/tex]

The formula becomes:

[tex]S_n = \frac{a(r^n - 1)}{r - 1}[/tex]

[tex]S_9 = \frac{45* (3^9 - 1)}{3 - 1}[/tex]

[tex]S_9 = \frac{45* (3^9 - 1)}{2}[/tex]

[tex]S_9 = \frac{45* (19683 - 1)}{2}[/tex]

[tex]S_9 = \frac{45* (19682)}{2}[/tex]

[tex]S_9 = 45* 9841[/tex]

[tex]S_9 = 442845[/tex]

Hence, the sum of the first 9 terms is 442845

Answers

Answer:

x²y²z is the Greatest Common Factor

Therefore,

6x³y²z⁴ - 7x²y⁵z = x²y²z (6xz³ - 7y³)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expression

6x³y²z⁴ - 7x²y⁵z

The first step is to factor out the greatest common factor from each term

6x³y²z⁴ = 2 · 3 · 6 · x · x · x· y · y · z · z · z · z

7x²y⁵z =  7 · x · x · y · y · y· y · y · z

So

G.C.F = x · x . y · y . z

G.C.F = x²y²z

Thus, x²y²z is the Greatest Common Factor

         

Therefore,

6x³y²z⁴ - 7x²y⁵z = x²y²z (6xz³ - 7y³)

Find the mean absolute deviation of 5,9,7,0,3,5,5

Answers

Answer: 1.92

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula to find the mean absolute deviation:

[tex]MAD =\sum^{n=i}_{n=1}\dfrac{|x_i-\overlien{x}|}{n}[/tex]

, where [tex]\overline{x}=[/tex] mean , [tex]x_i's[/tex] = data values, n= number of data values.

Given data: 5,9,7,0,3,5,5

n= 7

Mean:

[tex]\overline{x}=\dfrac{5+9+7+0+3+5+5}{7}\\\\=\dfrac{34}{7}[/tex]

MAD = [tex]\dfrac {|5-\dfrac{34}{7}|+|9-\dfrac{34}{7}|+|7-\frac{34}{7}|+|0-\dfrac{34}{7}|+|3-\dfrac{34}{7}|+|5-\dfrac{34}{7}|+|5-\dfrac{34}{7}|}{7}[/tex]

[tex]=\dfrac{\frac17+\frac{29}{7}+\frac{15}{7}+\frac{34}{7}+\dfrac{13}{7}+\frac17+\frac17}{7}\\\\=\dfrac{\frac{94}{7}}{7}\\\\=\dfrac{94}{49}\approx1.92[/tex]
