Answer 5795

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

5 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

distance = rate times time

distance = (10 miles per hour)( 30 minutes)  30 minutes is equal to 1/2 hour

distance = [tex]\frac{10 miles}{hour}[/tex] [tex](\frac{1 hour}{2} )[/tex]  You can cancel words, like like cancelling numbers  The hours cancel out and you are left with [tex]\frac{10 miles}{2}[/tex]  which is equal to 5 miles.

Answer: 5 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Jim runs 10 miles per hour, and 30 minutes is half an hour, so divide 10 by 2.

We get the age of Jack is 29 years and the age of Jill is 16 years.

We are given that the sum of Jack's age and Jill's age is 45 years.

Let Jack's age be x.

Let Jill's age be y.

x + y = 45

x = 45 - y

Now, we are also given that jack's age next year will be twice Jill's age last year.

Jack's age next year = x + 1

Jill's age last year = y - 1

ATQ, We get the equation as:

x + 1 = 2( y - 1)

x + 1 = 2 y - 2

x = 2 y - 2 - 1

x = 2 y - 3

We get that:

45 - y = 2 y - 3

2 y + y = 45 + 3

3 y = 48

y = 48 / 3

y = 16 years.

x + y = 45

x + 16 = 45

x = 45 - 16

x = 29 years.

Therefore, we get the age of Jack is 29 years and the age of Jill is 16 years.

Answer:

23200

Step-by-step explanation:

The number is 5, the equation used is [tex]x^{2}[/tex] - x - 20 = 0

Let x be the number which is between 1 to 10.

From the question we get to know the equation:

(x-3)(x +2) = 14

x(x+2) -3(x+2) =14

[tex]x^{2}[/tex] +2x -3x - 6 =14

[tex]x^{2}[/tex] - x - 6 =14

[tex]x^{2}[/tex] - x - 20 = 0

This is the equation used to solve for Kevin's number.

Now we have to find the value of x.

[tex]x^{2}[/tex] - 5x + 4x -20=0

x(x-5) + 4(x-5) = 0

(x-5)(x+4) = 0

x = 5, -4

Hence we get two values of x which is 5, -4. But we have to find the number between 1 and 10.

Hence from the value of 5 and -4 , the number is 5 which is between 1 and 10 as -4 is not in the range of 1 to 10.

The bat colony will cover an area of 80,000 square miles in 1.612 hours.

A circle is the collection of all the points together in plane that are equally distant from the a given point known as the circle's center. A circle is represented by the symbol. A radius of a circle is a line segment that connects the center of a circle toward any point on the circle.

Now, as per the given question;

The area covered (A) by the colony, evaluated in square miles, is depicted by the mentioned geometrical formula as the bat colony emerges from a cave & spreads out in a circular pattern:

A = π R²

R = the bat's distance from the cave, calculated in miles.

Furthermore, each bat moves at a constant speed, and distance is depicted by the following kinematic formula:

R = r₀ + rΔt

r₀ = The bat's initial distance from the cave, estimated in miles.

r = Bat speed, estimated in miles per hour.

Δt = Time, expressed in hours.

Substitute the value of R in the formula of area.

A = π (r₀ + rΔt)²

(r₀ + rΔt)² = A/ π

(r₀ + rΔt) = √(A/ π)

rΔt = √(A/ π) - r₀

Δt = (√(A/ π) - r₀)/r

r =  99 miles per hour

The distance between the bat and the cave has now been substituted, and time has been cleared:

A = area of 80,000 square miles

π = 3.14

r₀ = 0 miles per hour

Substituting all the values in the A we calculate the time.

Δt = (√( 80,000/3.14) - 0)/99

On solving;

Δt = 1.612 (approx)

Thus, It will take 1.612 hours for the bat colony to cover an area of 80,000 square miles.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

When Point Q is on line segment PR, if PQ=x,QR=6, and PR =2x-10, then the length of PR is 18 units

Given,

That point Q is on line segment PR

The length of PQ = x

The length of QR = 6

The length of PR = 2x-10

We know,

Point Q is on line segment PR

So, the length of the PR = Length of PQ + Length of QR

Substitute the values in the equation

2x-10 = x+6

2x-x=6+10

x=14

Substitute the value of x in the equation of the length of line PR

PR= 2x-10

=2×14-10

=28-10

=18 units

Hence, when Point Q is on line segment PR, if PQ=x,QR=6, and PR =2x-10, then the length of PR is 18 units

y = mx + b

In which:

From the table, we have that:

Hence, we have that when x = 0, y = 45, meaning that:

The y-intercept is of 45.

When x increases by 5, y decays by 8, hence the slope is given as follows:

m = -8/5 = -1.6.

Then the function is:

y = -1.6x + 45.

The x-intercept is found as follows:

-1.6x + 45 = 0

1.6x = 45

x = 45/1.6

Answer:

a. 0, -6, -18, -21, -90

b. 3, 0, -6, -18, -42

c. A starting point of any number ≥ 6 will result in a sequence of positive values

Step-by-step explanation:

Here the sequence is governed by the rule:
[tex]\sf a_{n} = 2(a_{n-1} - 3)[/tex]
[tex]\textsf {where $a_n$ is the nth term and $a_{n-1}$ is the previous term}}[/tex]

1) Starting with a₁ = 0 we get
a₂ = 2(a₁ - 3) = 2(0 - 3) = -6
a₃ = 2(a₂ - 3) = 2(-6 -3) = 2(-9) = -18
a₄ = 2(a3 - 3) = 2(-18 - 3) = 2(-21) = -42
a₅ = 2(a₄ - 3) = 2(-42- 3) = 2(-45) = -90

So the first 5 numbers in the sequence starting with 0 are:
0, -6, -18, -21, -90

2) I will approach this slightly differently

We have the relationship:
[tex]\sf a_{n} = 2(a_{n-1} - 3)[/tex]

Expanding the brackets we get
[tex]\sf a_{n} = 2a_{n-1} - 6[/tex]

We have a₁ = 3
a₂ = 2(a₁) - 6 = 2(3) - 6 = 6 - 6 = 0
a₃ = 2(a₂) - 6 = 2(0) - 6 = -6
a₄ = 2(a₃) - 6 = 2(-6) - 6 = -18
a₅ = 2(a₄ ) - 6 = 2(-18) - 6 = -42

The sequence starting with 3 is:
3, 0, -6, -18, -42

Both methods work exactly the same, some students find expanding the brackets easier to deal with

c. We can see that as a₁ increases, the number of negative numbers decreases by 2. So, in order for all numbers to be positive (> 0) we should start with a sufficiently large number so that all numbers are positive

The smallest such number is 6.
When a₁ = 6, the sequence is all 6s because
a₂ = 2(6) - 6 = 12 - 6 = 6

So the next number is a₃ = 12(6) - 6 = 6 and so on

So any starting point ≥ 6 will yield positive values. At 5 the sequence would be: 5, 4, 2, -2, -10 so starting point of 5 will not work

Velocity is the direction at which an item is moving and serves as a measure of the rate at which its location is changing as seen from a certain point of view and as measured by a specific unit of time (for example, 60 km/h northbound). In kinematics, the area of classical mechanics that deals with the motion of bodies, velocity is a basic idea. A physical vector quantity called velocity must have both a magnitude and a direction in order to be defined. Speed is the scalar absolute value (magnitude) of velocity; it is a coherent derived unit whose quantity is measured in metres per second (m/s or m/s1) in the SI (metric system).
