A ski resort is building two parallel straight ski slopes for children. One of them has a gradient of 1/3. The other ski slope will pass through points (2,-3) and (s,-5). Find the value of s

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: s= -8

Step-by-step explanation:

The gradient of the ski slope can ge used as the slope (literally) of a line equation:

y = mx + b,

where m is the slope and b the y-intercept (the value of y when x = 0).

The first slope would be y = -(1/3)x + b.

The slope is (-1/3) since the ski run is headed downhill.  The second ski slope is assumed to have the same gradient ("two parallel straight ski slopes").

y' = -(1/3)x' + b

We may assume that b is the same for both slopes - they start and end at the same point.

We can find b by using the given point (2,-3):

y' = -(1/3)x' + b

-3 = -(1/3)(2) + b

-3 = -(2/3) + b   [Add -(2/3) to both sides: (-3 + 2/3 = -9/3 + 2/3 = -7/3]

-7/3 = b

b = -(7/3)

The second ski slope, y', thus has the equation

y' = (1/3)x' -(7/3)

We want the value of s in (s, -5).

y' = (1/3)x' -(7/3)

-5 = (1/3)s -(7/3)

(1/3)s = -5 +(7/3)    [-15/3 + 7/3 = -8/3]

(1/3)s = -(8/3)    [Multiply both dies by 3]

s = -(24/3)  

s = -8

Conor earns $9 an hour for yard work. He raked leaves one afternoon and earned $29.25.
How much does Conor earn for each minute he does yard work?
Hint: There are 60 minutes in 1 hour.

Answers

29.25 divided by 9 is 3.25. You have to take the total amount of money he made $29.25 and divide it by the amount he gets every hour $9. So 29.25 divided by 9 is 3.25 or 3 hours and 15 minutes.

Answer:

15 cents a minute

Step-by-step explanation:

9 ÷ 60 = $0.15

Give coordinates for three possible pairs of points for the other two verticies...

Answers

Answer:

A) (-1,3) and (4,3)

B) (-1,-7) and (4,-7)

C) (1.5, .5) and (1.5, -4.5)

Step-by-step explanation:

For 1 and 2, because the y-values of the points are the same, the length of the square can be found by subtracting the x-coordinates.

4-(-1)=4+1=5

The length of the side of the square is 5.

1. For the first set of points, the square is above the two given points so just add 5 to the y-values

-2+5=3

This gives you the points:

(-1,3) and (4,3)

2. For the second set of points, the square is below the two given points so subtract 5 from the y-values.

-2-5=-7

This give you the points:

(-1,-7) and (4,-7)

3. The third answer is when the two given points are on opposite corners

of the square.

Here the diagonal is equal to 5 since they are on opposite corners of the square.

The diagonal of a square can be found with the pythagorean theorem

Since we have the diagonal we can find the side lengths we need.

[tex]2s^2=25[/tex]

s=[tex]\sqrt{\frac{25}{2} }[/tex]

s=3.5355

We want the new vertices to be in the middle of the other vertices x-coordinates

[tex]\frac{4-(-1)}{2} =\frac{5}{2} =2.5[/tex]

The new vertices will be 2.5 units away from the other vertices

-1+2.5=1.5

The new vertices will be at x=1.5

Now we need the pythagorean theorem again to find the y-values

[tex](2.5)^2+h^2=(3.5355)^2[/tex]

[tex]6.25+h^2=\frac{25}{2}[/tex]

[tex]h=\sqrt{\frac{25}{2} -6.25}[/tex]

h=2.5

The new vertices will be:

(1.5, -2+2.5)=(1., .5)

(1.5, -2-2.5)=(1.5, -4.5)

kate has $2.95 in quarters and nickels and the total number of ocins is 23 how many quarters and how many nickels does kat have

Answers

Answer: 9 quarters and 14 nickels

Step-by-step explanation:

9*25=225

14*5=70

225+70=295

The total number of nickels is 14 and the total number of quarters is 9 and this can be determined by forming the linear equation.

Given :

kate has $2.95 in quarters and nickels and the total number of coins is 23.

The following steps can be used in order to determine the total number of quarters and nickels Kat have:

Step 1 - Let the total number of quarters be 'x' and the total number of nickels be 'y'.

Step 2 - Remember one quarter is equal to $0.25 and one nickel is $0.05.

Step 3 - The total amount of money Kat has:

0.25x + 0.05y = 2.95  --- (1)

Step 4 - Total number of coins is given by:

x + y = 23

x = 23 - y    --- (2)

Step 5 - Substitute the value of 'x' in equation (1).

0.25(23 - y) + 0.05y = 2.95

5.75 - 0.25y + 0.05y = 2.95

2.8 = 0.20y

y = 14

Step 6 - Now, substitute the value of 'y' in equation (2).

x = 23 - 14

x = 9

So, the total number of nickels is 14 and the total number of quarters is 9.

A boat travels at a rate of 30 miles per hour for 3.5 hours. Let y be the distance, in miles, the boat travels for a given amount of time, x, in hours. This situation can be modeled by a linear function. What is the domain of the function?

Question 11 options:

0≤y≤30

0≤y≤3.5

0≤x≤3.5

0≤x≤30

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall that distance = (rate)(time).  Here the rate is 30 mph and the time 3.5 hr.  The distance traveled is proportional to the time passing by.  The graph of the distance function is a straight line with slope equal to the "rate" named above:

d(x) = (30 mph)x

Since x (elapsed time) can't be negative in this situation, we write the domain as 0 ≤ x ≤ 3.5 hr.

An arithmetic sequence is given below.
15, 19, 23 ,27 …
Write an explicit formula for the nth term an

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

arithmetic sequence means every new term is the previous term plus a certain constant.

as we can see, this constant is +4 in our case.

15 + 4 = 19

19 + 4 = 23

23 + 4 = 27

...

so, we have

a1 = 15

a2 = a1 + 4 = 15 + 4 = 19

a3 = a2 + 4 = a1 + 4 + 4 = a1 + 2×4 = 15 + 8 = 23

...

an = an-1 + 4 = a1 + (n-1)×4 = 15 + (n-1)×4
