Going from point A to point B, the cheetah traveled at an average rate of 70 mph. Returning to point A, the cheetah traveled at an average rate of 40 mph. Can we say that this cheetah’s average rate was 55 mph? The average rate for the trip is equal to the total distance traveled divided by the total time traveled. The following equations represent the distance traveled on each leg of the trip. First leg of trip: d=r_1 t_1 Second leg of trip: d=r_2 t_2 Write an equation for the average rate for the trip. Remember, the cheetah runs from point A to point B and back to point A.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

No.

[tex]\text{Average rate} = \dfrac{\text{Total distance}}{\text{Total time}} = \dfrac{r_{1}t_{1} + r_{2}t_{2}}{t_{1} + t_{2}}\\\\= \text{50.91 mi/h}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

First leg:              d = r₁t₁

Second leg:        d = r₂t₂

                         r₁t₁ = r₂t₂

Total distance: 2d = r₁t₁ + r₂t₂

Total time:           t = t₁ + t₂

1. Equation for average rate

[tex]\text{Average rate} = \dfrac{\text{Total distance}}{\text{Total time}} = \dfrac{r_{1}t_{1} + r_{2}t_{2}}{t_{1} + t_{2}}[/tex]

2. Average rate

Since r₁t₁ = r₂t₂,

[tex]t_{1} = \dfrac{r_{2}t_{2}}{r_{1}} = \frac{40}{70}t_{2} = \frac{4}{7}t_{2}\\\\\text{Average rate} = \dfrac{2r_{2}t_{2}}{\frac{4}{7}t_{2} + t_{2}} = \dfrac{2 \times 40t_{2}}{\frac{4t_{2}+ 7t_{2}}{7}}= 80t_{2} \times\frac{7}{11t_{2}} = \dfrac{560}{11}\\\\= \textbf{50.91 mi/h}[/tex]

We cannot say truthfully that the average rate is 55 mi/h.

Answer 2

The average rate of a body is the total distance travelled divided by the total time.

The cheetah runs at an average rate of 50.91mph, not 55mph

Let

[tex]d \to[/tex] distance

[tex]r \to[/tex] average rate

[tex]t \to[/tex] time

Given that:

[tex]d = r_1t_1 = r_2t_2[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]r_1 = 70[/tex]

[tex]r_2 = 40[/tex]

The average rate (r) is calculated as follows:

[tex]r = \frac{Total\ Distance (D)}{Total\ Time (T)}[/tex]

Where:

[tex]D=d + d[/tex]

[tex]D = r_1t_1 + r_2t_2[/tex]

and

[tex]T =t_1 + t_2[/tex]

So, the average rate is:

[tex]r =\frac{r_1t_1 + r_2t_2}{t_1 + t_2}[/tex]

Recall that:

[tex]D = r_1t_1 + r_2t_2[/tex]

[tex]r_1t_1 = r_2t_2[/tex]

Make [tex]t_2[/tex] the subject

[tex]t_2 = \frac{r_1t_1}{r_2}[/tex]

Substitute values for [tex]r_1[/tex] and [tex]r_2[/tex]

[tex]t_2 = \frac{70t_1}{40}[/tex]

So, we have:

[tex]r =\frac{r_1t_1 + r_2t_2}{t_1 + t_2}[/tex]

[tex]r = \frac{70t_1 + 40 \times \frac{70t_1}{40}}{t_1 + \frac{70t_1}{40}}[/tex]

[tex]r = \frac{70t_1 + 70t_1}{t_1 + \frac{70t_1}{40}}[/tex]

[tex]r = \frac{140t_1}{t_1 + \frac{70t_1}{40}}[/tex]

Factor out t1

[tex]r= \frac{140t_1}{t_1(1 + \frac{70}{40})}[/tex]

[tex]r = \frac{140}{(1 + \frac{70}{40})}[/tex]

[tex]r = \frac{140}{\frac{40+70}{40}}[/tex]

[tex]r= \frac{140}{\frac{110}{40}}[/tex]

Rewrite as:

[tex]r = \frac{140 \times 40}{110}[/tex]

[tex]r = 50.91mph[/tex]

Hence, the cheetah's average rate is 50.91mph, not 55mph

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

When a substance is dissolved in another, they are mixed together forming a new one, therefore the new substance's mass must be the same as the sum of the individual mass of each substance mixed, because there are no leaks. In this case, there are two substances being mixed, the water which have a mass of 10 grams and the sugar which have a mass of 1 gram, therefore the final solution's mass must be equal to 11 g.

a) y = 6x + 25  (because the 25 is the initial fee)

b) x = 10, so:  

= 6 * 10 + 25

= $85

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a selection problem.

What we are trying to do is to properly select 3 week long camps from the total 5. we are looking for the number of ways in which we can do this.

Now, since this is a selection problem, the proper mathematical term and approach to use is the COMBINATION

Mathematically, having r items to pick from a total n, the number of ways to do this is nCr ways

which is mathematically equivalent to;

n!/(n-r)!r!

now applying this to the problem at hand, what we have is 5C3

= 5!/(5-3)!3! = 5!/2!3! = (5 *4)/2 = 20/2 = 10 ways

The floor of the cage measures 11 yardyard wide by 66 feetfeet long. One bag of shavings covers 55 square feetfeet. How many bags will HarperHarper have to buy to cover the floor of the​ cage? Explain.

Answers

Answer:

3 3/5 bags

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to find the surface area of the floor of the cage first.

The cage measures 1 yard wide by 6 feet long.

1 yard = 3 feet

The floor of the cage is rectangular, so, the surface area of the floor of the cage is therefore:

3 * 6 = 18 square feet

One bag of shavings covers 5 square feet.

To find the number of bags we need to cover the floor, we divide the surface area of the floor by the number of bags per square feet.

The number of bags needed for the floor of the cage is therefore :

18 / 5 = 3 3/5 bags

Florence Tyler invests $5000 in a 1-year CD that earns interest at an annual rate of 4% compounded monthly. The amount per $1.00 is 1.040742. What is the interest earned?

Answers

Answer:

$203.71

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

Principal = $5,000

The amount per $1.00 is given as 1.040742

The total amount earned is equal to the product of the principal and the amount per dollar.

A = Principal × amount per dollar

Substituting the values;

A = $5000 × 1.040742

A = $5203.71

Interest earned = Total amount earned - principal

Interest earned = $5203.71 - $5000

Interest earned = $203.71

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a point (4,80) and a slope, m = 60, these can be used to formulate the equation of the graph. Using the point-slope formula:

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - 80 = 60(x - 4)

y - 80 = 60x - 240

y = 60x -160

Taking the x and y-intercepts:

At y = 0

0 = 60x - 160

x = 2.7

At x = 0

y = 60(0) - 160

y = -160

The answer is A. Hope this helps ✌️
