A cyclist travels 4 miles in 20 minutes and then a further 6 miles in 30 minutes without stopping. Calculate the cyclist's average speed in mph.​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

24mph

Step-by-step explanation:

convert 20 mins and 30 mins to hrs by dividing by 60

4/(20/60)=12

6/(30/60)=12

12+12=24

Answer 2

Cyclist's average speed is 12 mph.

What is Speed?

Speed is calculated as the ratio of the distance travelled by an object to the time taken to cover the distance.

It can also be defined as the rate of change of position of anything in any direction.

Speed is a scalar quantity as it does not have direction.

Total distance travelled by the cyclist = 4 miles + 6 miles

                                        = 10 miles

Total time taken by the cyclist = 20 minutes + 30 minutes

                                                  = 50 minutes

We need the average speed in mph or miles per hour.

We know that,

60 minutes = 1 hour

1 minute = 1/60 hour

50 minutes = [tex]\frac{1}{60}[/tex] × 50 hour

                   = [tex]\frac{5}{6}[/tex] hour

Average Speed = Total distance travelled / Total time taken

                          = 10 miles / (5/6) hour

                          = 10 × [tex]\frac{6}{5}[/tex]

                          = 12 miles per hour

Hence the average speed of the cyclist is 12 miles per hour.

10. If the area of a parallelogram is 690.84 m2 and the height is 20.2 m, what is the length of the base?

Answers

Answer:

34.2 m

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that

Area of parallelogram = Base × Height

690.84 = B × 20.2

690.84/20.2 = B

34.2 = B

Hence,

Base of parallelogram is 34.2 m

[tex]\huge{\purple{\underline{\underline{\bf{\pink{ANSWER:-}}}}}}[/tex]

Here we've been given:

Area of parallelogram (A) = 690.84 m²

Height (H) = 20.2 m

Length of base (B) = ?

[tex]:\longrightarrow\tt{Area \: of \: parallelogram = Base \times Height} \\ \\ :\longrightarrow\tt{690.84 = B \times 20.2} \\ \\ :\longrightarrow\tt{ \frac{690.84}{20.2} = B} \\ \\ :\longrightarrow\tt{34.2 = B} \\ \\ :\longrightarrow\tt{B = 34.2 \: m}[/tex]

The length of base is 34.2m.

4200 in the scientific notation.​

Answers

Answer:

4.2*10^3

Hope This Helps!!!

Answer:

The answer is 4.2×10^3

Step-by-step explanation:

To convert 4200 into scientific notation, follow these steps:

- Move the decimal 3 times to left in the number so that the resulting number, m = 4.2, is greater than or equal to 1 but less than 10

- Since we moved the decimal to the left the exponent n is positive

n = 3

- Write in the scientific notation form, m × 10^n

= 4.2 × 10^3

Therefore, the decimal number 4200 written in scientific notation is 4.2 × 10^3 and it has 2 significant figures.

Answers

Solution:

iv) Given equation: [tex]x^{2} - y^{2} - 4x - 2y + 3[/tex]

Since we are given two variables, we need to split the original expression into two quadratic expressions as

[tex]x^{2} - 4x + 4 - y^{2} - 2y - 1[/tex]

Factoring x first:

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

= [tex]x (x - 2) - 2 (x-2)[/tex]

= [tex](x-2)(x-2)[/tex]

[tex]= (x-2)^{2}[/tex]

Factoring y now:

[tex]-y^{2} - 2y - 1 = -1(y^{2} + 2y + 1)[/tex]

= [tex]-1(y^{2} + y + y + 1)[/tex]

= [tex]-1[ y(y+1) + 1(y+1)][/tex]

= [tex]-1 [(y+1)(y+1)][/tex]

= [tex](y+1)(-y-1)[/tex]

Therefore, the original expression becomes

[tex](x-2)^{2}+(y+1)(-y-1)\\or \\(x-2)(x-2) + (y+1)(-y-1)[/tex]

Answer correctly luvs

Answers

Answer:

the answer is 25

Step-by-step explanation:

45+30=100-w

then your going to subtract 45 on both sides. So 100-45 is 55.

so now your equation looks like this

30 = 55 - w

subtract 55 on both sides so you will have -25 = -w. Then your going to divide -w on both sides and you will have positive 25

Chan rows at a rate of eight miles per hour in still water. On Wednesday, it takes him three hours to row upstream from his house to the park. He rows back home, and it takes him two hours. What is the speed of the current?

Answers

Answer:

1 3/5 miles/hr

Step-by-step explanation:

Let C be the speed of the current

Let D be the distance between Chan's house and the park

We know that Distance, D, is = Speed x Time

-----

Chan's speed going upstream is (8 - C)mph.

That gives us:

D = (8-C)(3 hr)

Chan's speed going downstream is (8+C)mph

So we have:

D = (8+C)(2 hr)

We know that the d is the same for these two equations, so:

(8-C)(3 hr)  = (8+C)(2 hr)

24 - 3C = 16 + 2C

5C = 8

C = (8/5) or 1 3/5 mph

Answer:

  1.6 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance, speed, and time are related by ...

  distance = speed × time

We assume that the distances up and back are the same, so for a current speed of c, we have ...

  3(8 -c) = 2(8 +c)

  24 -3c = 16 +2c . . . eliminate parentheses

  8 = 5c . . . . . . . . . . add 3c-16 to both sides

  c = 8/5 = 1.6 . . . . . divide by 5

The speed of the current is 1.6 miles per hour.

Solve the system of equations.
4х – 3y = 12
3х + 6у = 42

Answers

the answer would be B) 6, 4

mark me brianliest if i was correct!

Answer: B. (6,4)

Find x for the 2nd equation

3x + 6y = 42

3x = 42-6y

x= (42-6y) / 3

Place the value of x in the first equation and find for y then.

4x - 3y= 12

4{(42-6y)/3} - 3y = 12

So the answer for y is 4

Now, you know the value of y is 4.

4x - 3*4 = 12

4x - 12 = 12

x= 12+12 /4

x= 6

So x is 6 and y is 4. So the answer is B.

Step-by-step explanation:

First solve for x. HI = 2x, IJ = 4x - 10, and the whole length HJ = 4x.

So 2x + 4x - 10 = 4x.

6x - 10 = 4x

6x - 4x - 10 = 4x - 4x

2x - 10 = 0

2x - 10 + 10 = 0 + 10

2x = 10

x = 5.

IJ is 4x - 10, so it becomes 4(5) - 10

20 - 10 = 10
