A van travelled at an average speed of 65 km/hr from town a. 35 minutes later, a car started from town A and drove along the same route as the van. if the car caught up with the van after travelling a distance of 130 km, find the average speed of the car in km/hr

Answers

Answer 1

The average speed of the car for the given distance is 91.97 km/hr.

What is speed and velocity?

While both speed and velocity are indicators of how quickly an object is travelling, they serve different purposes. The distance travelled in a given amount of time, independent of direction, is referred to as speed, which is the magnitude of the velocity vector. In contrast, velocity is a vector quantity that accounts for both speed and direction. It is measured in units of distance per unit of time in a particular direction and is defined as the rate of change of position of an item with regard to a frame of reference.

Given that, a car started 35 minutes later that is it started after:

35 minutes = 35/60 = 0.5833 hours

Now the distance is given as:

distance = speed x time

Now, for speed = 65 km/hr:

distance = 65t

For the car the time is (t - 0.5833) thus:

distance = speed x time

130 = speed x (t - 0.5833)

Now for speed we have:

30 = s x (t - 0.5833)

130 = st - 0.5833s

130 + 0.5833s = st

130/s + 0.5833 = t

Now, substituting the value of t in the equation of the van we have:

distance = 65t

distance = 65(130/s + 0.5833)

130/s + 0.5833 = distance/65

130/s + 0.5833 = distance/65

130/s + 0.5833 = 130/65

130/s + 0.5833 = 2

s = 91.97km/hr

Hence, the average speed of the car for the given distance is 91.97 km/hr.

find the nth term of this quadratic sequence 4 9 16 25 36

Answers

Answer:

        aₙ = n² + 2n + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

a₁ = 4 = 2² = (1 + 1)²

a₂ = 9 = 3² = (2 + 1)²

a₃ = 16 = 4² = (3 + 1)²

a₄ = 25 = 5² = (4 + 1)²

a₅ = 36 = 6² = (5 + 1)²

Therefore:

               aₙ = (n + 1)² = n² + 2n + 1

The two legs of a right triangle measure 7 inches and 5 inches. Find the measure of the acute angle that is included between the longer leg and the hypotenuse. WILL GIVE BRAINIEST TO FIRST RIGHT ANSWER

Answers

Answer:

44.4 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following

Hypotenuse = 7

Longer leg = 5 (adjacent])

Let the acute angle angle between both sides be x

According to SOH CAH TOA

Cos theta = adj/hyp

Cos x = 5/7

x= arccos (5/7)

x = arccos (0.7143)

x = 44.4degrees

Hence he measure of the acute angle that is included between the longer leg and the hypotenuse is 44.4 degrees

ME NEED HELP HERE SO CONFUSED

Answers

Answer:

106°

Step-by-step explanation:

By exterior angle theorem:

[tex]m \angle \: 1 = 62 \degree + 44 \degree \\ \\ m \angle \: 1 = 106 \degree[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the unknown angle in the triangle be x.

x + 44 + 62 = 180(sum of angles in a triangle)

x + 106 = 180

x = 180 - 106

x = 74

Angle 1 + x = 180 (Sum of angles on the same straight line)

angle 1 + 74 = 180

Angle 1 = 180 - 74

= 106

From.rules of indices :

a^x * a^y = a^(x + y)

Therefore, applying the rule of indices ;

c^5 * c^8 * c^-5 = c^(5 + 8 + - 5)

c^5 * c^8 * c^-5 = c^(5 + 8 - 5)

c^5 * c^8 * c^-5 = c^8

fors or >= for >

Answers

Answer:

y ≤ -2x - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope- intercept form is y = mx + b, m being the slope and b being the y-intercept.

The slope is the rise of the line over the run. We can choose two points that are exactly on the line. Let's try points (-1, 0) and (0, -2). The line slopes down, so we already know the slope is negative. From point (-1, 0), the line goes down 2 units and over 1 unit. So, the slope is -[tex]\frac{2}{1}[/tex]. We can also simply say that the slope is -2.

The line intersects with the y-axis at point (0, -2), so the y-intercept is -2.

Because the shading is on the left side of the line and the line is solid, we can tell that y is less than or equal to -2x - 2. So, the equation is-

y ≤ -2x - 2

5x – 3y = 24

The ceiling of Katie’s living room is a square that is 15 ft long on each side. To decorate for a party, she plans to hang crepe paper around the perimeter of the ceiling and then from each corner to the opposite corner. Katie can buy rolls that each contain 20 ft of crepe paper. What is the minimum number of rolls she should buy? Show your work.

Answers

Answer:

6 rolls because the total perimeter is 102 ft and five rolls is only 100 feet. So she needs 6 rolls.

Step-by-step explanation:

to find perimeter, add up all the side lengths.

so 15*4 (it's easier than 15+15+15...)

60 ft.

now we have to use Pythagorean's Theorum to find corner to corner.

so [tex]a^2+b^2=c^2[/tex]

we have a and b

[tex]15^2+15^2=c^2[/tex]

do the math...

225+225= 450

square root of 450=

21.213

double that because it's used twice (corner to corner and corner to corner)

42.426

now add it all up

42.426 + 60 = 102.426

we can round

102

20*5 = 100

so she needs 6

MY ORIGINAL ERROR WAS 5, BUT 5 TIMES 20 IS ONLY 80, SO THEREFORE 6 IS REQUIRED SO THERE IS ENOUGH TO COVER 102.

Answer:

Katie needs 6 crepe rolls.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

Katie originally needed ~5.1 crepe rolls, but since its a question on how many rolls she should by, she should get 6.

Step-by-step explanation:

The square in the middle = 36, as 6x6=36

There are 2 triangles on each side of the center square.

Since the base of the trapezoid is 12, and the base of the square is 6, that leaves 3 for the base of each triangle.

3x6=18x1/2 (As a triangle's area is b (base) x h (height) x (one half) 1/2

18x1/2 is 9.

Each triangle equals 9.

36+9+9=54

The final answer is 54

Answers

Answer:

  a.  21

Step-by-step explanation:

The external part of the hypotenuse of the right triangle is shown. The full length of the hypotenuse is 9+20 = 29. The Pythagorean theorem can be used to find x.

  x^2 +20^2 = 29^2

  x^2 = 841 -400

  x = √441

  x = 21

__

Alternate solution

The diameter of the circle is 2·20 = 40 units, so the product of distances from the external vertex to the opposite sides of the circle along the secant is (9)(40+9). The product of the distances along the tangent is x·x. These two products are equal, so ...

  x^2 = 9(49)

  x = (√9)(√49) = 3·7

  x = 21
