Answers

Answer 1

Answer: 18.32secs

Step-by-step explanation:

given data:

first washer

21 ft high

rising 8 in./s

second washer

50 ft high

descending 11 in./s

Solution:

initial height of first washer = 21 feet

1feet = 12inches

21 * 12 = 252inches

decending at a pace of 8inch/secs

= 252 + 8x

initial height of second washer

= 50 feet

= 50 * 12

= 600inches

descending at a pace of 11inch/secs

= 600 + 11x

At what time would they meet

252 + 8x = 600 + 11x

collect like terms

8x + 11x = 600 – 252

19x = 348

divide both sides by 19

19x/19 = 348/19

x = 18.32secs

The lengths of the sides of a quadrilateral are 4 consecutive even integers.



The perimeter of the quadrilateral is 20 inches.



What is the length of the longest side?

Answers

Answer: 8 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

A quadrilateral is a shape with four sides. Since the lengths of the sides of the quadrilateral are 4 consecutive even integers, let them be represented by a, a+2, a+4 and a+6.

We then equate the side to the perimeter. This will be:

a + a+2 + a+4 + a+6 = 20

4a + 12 = 20

4a = 20 - 12

4a = 8

a = 8/4

a = 2 inches

The length of the longest side will be:

= a + 6

= 2 + 6

= 8 inches

The area of a Rhombus is 60cm² and one of its diagonals is 15cm, then the length of other diagonal is

Answers

The area of a rhombus is give by 1/2 times the product of the diagonals. Therefore:

60cm2=12(d1⋅d2)

where d1 and d2 are the diagonals. Letting d1=15cm and solving for d2 gives d2=8cm.

The two diagonals bisect each other and are perpendicular to each other. Therefore the four triangles created by the diagonals in the rhombus are right triangles. Using the Pythagorean theorem on any of these triangles yields that the sides s of the rhombus are given by

(152 ) 2 + (82)2 = s 2

or s = 172cm.

The perimeter is therefore 4 X 172 = 34 cm.

If f(x) = x3 – 1 and g(x) = 2x - 1, which choice is equivalent to g(f(x))?
A)
x3 - 3
B)
2x3 - 3
)
2x3 - 2
D)
223 - 1

Answers

The equivalent function of g(f(x)) for the given function  is 2x³ - 3.

Function composition is an operation × that takes two functions f and g, and produces a function h = g ∘ f such that h(x) = g(f(x)). In this operation, the function g is applied to the result of applying the function f to x.

We have been given that

f(x) = x3 – 1

g(x) = 2x - 1

and find out g(f(x)) =?

The notation for function composition is h = f • g or h(x) = (f • g)(x) and is read as 'f of g of x'. The procedure is called composition because the new function is composed of the two given functions f and g, where one function is substituted into the other.

g(f(x)) = 2(f(x))- 1

Put the value of f(x) in the equation

g(f(x)) = 2( x³ - 1) -1

g(f(x)) = 2 x³ - 2 -1

g(f(x)) = 2 x³ - 3

Hence , For the given function, 2x3 - 3 serves as the corresponding function of g(f(x)).

A baseball player starts the season with 77 career home runs. Ten games into the
season, he has hit 2 home runs. Assume he continues at this pace. Write an
equation for the number of career home runs he has hit. How many career home
runs would you expect him to have at the end of the season (162 games)?

Answers

If there are a total of 162 games, and every then games the player hits 2 home runs, we can divide the total amount of games by 10 then multiply the quotient by 2.

162 / 10 is approximately 16.

16 × 2 = 32

32 + 77 = 109 career home runs

Using the slope intercept relation, the required equation and the number of home runs at season end would be ;

y = 0.2x + 77109

Recall :

y = bx + c

c = initial number of hime runs = 77b = slope y = total career home runs x = number of games played

Slope, b = 2 home runs per 10 games = 2/10 = 0.2

The expression can be represented thus:

y = 0.2x + 77

Number of home runs at the end of the season :

x = 162

y = 0.2(162) + 77

y = 32.4 + 77

y = 109.4

y = 109

Hence, Total number of hime runs would be 109.

Richard = R & Teo = T

Richard & Teo are combined 41 it means R + T = 41

R = 8 + 2T

R + T = 41 #1

R = 8 + 2T #2

replace 2 in 1

8 + 2T + T = 41

8 + 3T = 41

3T = 41 -8 = 33

T = 11

R = 8 + 2*11 = 30

Answer:

1-x-2+2x = 10x-25-x

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is as follows :

1-(x+2)+2x=5(2x-5)-x

We need to solve the above equation.

Firstly opening bracket off LHS and applying distributive property at RHS.

1-x-2+2x=5(2x)-5(5)-x    (Distributive property :a(b+c) = ab+ac)

1-x-2+2x = 10x-25-x

So, the correct option is (B) i.e. 1 minus x minus 2 + 2 x = 10 x minus 25 minus x.

Animal riddle
In reply to an inquiry about the animals on his farm, the farmer says: “I only ever keep sheep, goats, and horses. In fact, at the moment they are all sheep bar three, all goats bar four, and all horses bar five.” How many does he have of each animal?

Answers


Here’s the answer & how to find it! So let us suppose,

X : the no. of sheep he owns

Y : the no. of goats he owns

Z : the no. of horses he owns

This means,

X + Y + Z = Total no. of animals he owns

He says that “They are all sheep bar three.” Which means, the no. of animals other than sheep is 3, i.e.

Y + Z = 3

Similarly,

X + Z = 4 and X + Y = 5

On adding all the three equations, we get

2 ( X + Y + Z ) = 12

This implies,

X + Y + Z = 6

This means that the farmers has a total of 6 animals. And on further solving the equations we find that the he has 3 sheep, 2 goats and a horse.

What is Unitary method?

In order to solve a problem for two different values of a quantity, its unit value is first derived. This method is known as unitary method.

Given that,

The unit rate for squash and zucchini is $1.48 per pound.

In order to calculate the cost for 245 pounds of squash and 3110 pounds of zucchini unitary method can be used as follows,

The cost for 245 pounds of squash is 245 × 1.48 = $362.6

And, the cost for 245 pounds of squash is 3110× 1.48 = $4602.8.

Thus, the total cost is given as 4602.8 + 362.6 = $4965.4.

Hence, the total cost of vegetables at the given rate is $4965.4.
