Gavin likes biking. This week his goal is to bike about 65 total miles over four days. Each day he wants to ride 1.5 times as far as he rode the day before. How far should he ride on each of the four days. Write the expressions for the distance Gavin needs to bike each day. Then relate these expressions to create an equation that represents Gavin's situation.

Answers

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

let the first-day ride be x

Then the second-day ride will be =1.5 x

The third-day ride will be=1.5(1.5x)      

The Fourth-day ride will be=1.5*1.5(1.5x)  

hence for the four days the distance covered is

65=x+1.5x+1.5*1.5x+1.5*1.5*1.5x

65=x+1.5x+2.25x+3.375x

65=8.125x

divide both sides by 8.125 we have

x=65/8.125

x=8mile

the first-day ride be x=8miles

the second-day ride will be =1.5 x =1.5*8= 12miles

The third-day ride will be=1.5(1.5x) = 18miles

The Fourth-day ride will be=1.5*1.5(1.5x) = 27miles

Answers

Answer:

No, The graph does not represent two proportional quantities, because the line does not passes through the origin point (0, 0)

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the proportional quantity is y = k x, where k is the constant of proportionalityThis equation represented graphically by a line passes through the origin point (0, 0) because if we substitute x by 0 in the equation y = kx, y must be equal to zero

To solve the question graphically, we will use the ordered pairs on the table

→  x  →  y  ⇒  ordered pair

→  1  →  3  ⇒  (1, 3)

→  7  →  1  ⇒  (7, 1)

→  4  →  2 ⇒  (4, 2)

Plot the points

→ Look at the attached graph down

x-axis represents the number of hoursy-axis represents the number of people

∵ The line does not cut the y-axis at the origin point (0, 0)

→ That means the equation of the line can not be in the form y = k x

∴ The line does not represent a proportional equation

∴ The number of people and the number of hours are not proportion

Which diagram shows a pair of angle measures that prove lines a and b are parallel ?

Answers

Answer:

B would be the answer because line c goes through a and b. line c would the 180 line. if you subtract 180 with the numbers on lines a and b, they would equal the same.

Option B is right.

What are corresponding angles?

Corresponding angles are those angles formed in the same relative position on different intersections when a pair of lines are crossed by a third line.

Here, if we see the 60° angle, then the opposite angle must be = (180° - 60°) = 120°.

This equal to the given corresponding angle , which is also 120°.

We know, if the corresponding angles of a pair of lines are equal, then the pair of lines must be parallel.

Hence, Option B is correct.

Suppose you work for a large coffee distributor that has a secret coffee blend it sells to local stores. You
mix the Tanzanian blend with the Queen City blend, but always in the same proportion. Yesterday, you
mixed 40 pounds of the Tanzanian blend with 8 pounds of the Queen City blend. Today, there is 20 pounds
of the Tanzanian coffee left in stock. How many pounds of the Queen City coffee should you mix with it to
get your secret blend?

Answers

Quantity of Tanzanian blend used in my secret coffee blend = 40 pounds

Quantity of Queen city blend used in my secret coffee blend = 8 pounds

The ratio of Tanzanian blend to Queen city blend in my coffee blend = 40 : 8

Quantity of Tanzanian blend with me = 20 pounds

Quantity of Queen city bend needed to make my secret coffee blend =

Let the quantity of Queen city blend I will need be x .

[tex] \frac{40}{8} = \frac{20}{x} [/tex]

[tex]8 \times 20 = 40 \times x[/tex]

[tex]160 = 40x[/tex]

[tex]x = \frac{160}{40} [/tex]

[tex]x = 4[/tex]

Therefore , I need to mix 4 pounds of queen city blend with my 20 pounds of Tanzanian blend to get my secret coffee blend .

4 pounds of  the Queen City coffee should you mix with it to get your secret blend.

What is Ratio?

A ratio is an ordered pair of numbers a and b, written a / b where b does not equal 0.

Given that,

Yesterday If we mixed 40 pounds of the Tanzanian blend with 8 pounds of the Queen City blend.

In the same proportion, today there is 20 pounds of the Tanzanian coffee left in stock.

We need to calculate how many pounds of the Queen City coffee should you mix with it to get your secret blend.

Let x be the pounds of the Queen City coffee should you mix with it

Let us form a equation

40/8=20/x

Apply cross multiplication

40x=160

Divide both sides by 40

x=4

Hence 4 pounds of  the Queen City coffee should you mix with it to

get your secret blend.

Answer:

x= 3, y= 8

or x= -1, y= 0

Step-by-step explanation:

y= 2x² -2x -4 -----(1)

y -2x= 2

y= 2x +2 -----(2)

Substitute (1) into (2):

2x² -2x -4= 2x +2

2x² -2x -4 -2x -2= 0 (bring all terms to the left)

2x² -4x -6= 0 (simplify)

x² -2x -3= 0 (÷2 on both sides)

(x -3)(x +1)= 0 (factorise)

x -3= 0 or x +1= 0

x= 3 or x= -1

Substitute into (2):

y= 2(3) +2 or y= 2(-1) +2

y= 6 +2 or y= -2 +2

y= 8 or y= 0

Find the slope

Answers

Answer:

The slope of the line is [tex]\frac{4}{5}[/tex] ⇒ B

Step-by-step explanation:

You can find the slope of a line using any two points on the line (x1, y1) 1nd (x2, y2) by using this rule [tex]m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}[/tex]

Let us use this rule to answer the question

From the attached graph:

∵ The given line passes through points (-1, -2) and (4, 2)

→ That means point (x1, y1) = (-1, -2) and point (x2, y2) = (4, 2)

x1 = -1 and x2 = 4

y1 = -2 and y2 = 2

→ Substitute their values in the rule of the slope above

∴ [tex]m=\frac{2--2}{4--1}=\frac{2+2}{4+1}=\frac{4}{5}[/tex]

The slope of the line is [tex]\frac{4}{5}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

If you use PEMDAS and multiply the (5-2c) by 2 you get 10-4c. You'd then have to isolate the c and move it over by adding 4c to each side, which would make the inequality 0>10 or even if you flipped it to be -10>0. Both of which are false.

What is the image point of (7, 0) after a translation right 2 units and up 1 unit

Answers

Answer:

(9,1)

Step-by-step explanation:

The required image of the point of (7, 0) after a translation right 2 units and up 1 unit is (9, 1).

As mentioned in the question, the image point of (7, 0) after a translation right 2 units and up 1 unit is to be determined.

What is coordinate?

Coordinate, is represented as the values on the x-axis and y-axis of the graph. while the coordinate x is called abscissa and the coordinate of the y is called ordinate.

Here,
The image point of (7, 0) after a translation right 2 units and up 1 unit is given as,
= (x + x', y + y')
= (7 + 2, 0 + 1)
= (9, 1)

 

Thus, the required image of the point of (7, 0) after a translation right 2 units and up 1 unit is (9, 1).

Answers

Answer:

The measures of the angles of polygon ABCD are equal to the measures of the corresponding angles of both translated images. This means that the angles of the  polygon are preserved as the figure is translated in any direction.

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

The measures of the interior angles of polygon ABCD are equal to the measures of the corresponding angles in the reflected image. This means that angle measurements of the polygon are preserved as the image is reflected. The same is true for the side lengths. The measures of both angles and sides are preserved in a reflection. A reflection is a rigid transformation.
