Jonathan increased his rate of walking by 25% at halfway to his destination and therefore arrived half an hour earlier than was planned. How long did it take for Jonathan walk to his destination?O

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

1.67 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the original speed of Jonathan = [tex]x[/tex] units/hr

Let the original time taken by Jonathan = [tex]y[/tex] hours

Let the distance = [tex]D[/tex] units

Formula for distance is given as:

[tex]Distance = Speed \times Time[/tex]

Given that half the distance is covered by original speed.

[tex]\Rightarrow \dfrac{D}{2} = \dfrac{x}{2}\times \dfrac{y}{2}\\\Rightarrow D = \dfrac{xy}{2} ..... (1)[/tex]

Half the distance is covered by increasing the rate by 25%.

i.e. increased speed:

[tex]\dfrac{5}{4}x\ units/hr[/tex]

Hence, Time taken:

[tex]\dfrac{y}{2}-\dfrac{1}{2}[/tex]

Distance traveled is half of the total distance:

[tex]\Rightarrow \dfrac{D}{2} = \dfrac{5x}{4}\times (\dfrac{y}{2}-\dfrac{1}{2})\\\Rightarrow D = \dfrac{5x}{2}\times (\dfrac{y}{2}-\dfrac{1}{2}) .... (2)[/tex]

Dividing (1) by (2):

[tex]\dfrac{xy\times 4}{2\times 5x(y-1)} = 1\\\Rightarrow 2y=5y-5\\\Rightarrow 3y=5\\\Rightarrow y =1.67\ hours[/tex]

Question 18

=$3.33

Step-by-step explanation:

i)

26/100 x 4.5

=1.17

(the discount price)

ii)

$4.5-$1.17

=$3.33

Answer:

QUESTION 18

The original price is $4.50

The discount is 26%

They are asking for the sale price which the price after the discount.

So,

The original price means 100% of the cost, like there is no discount at all.

But then we have to apply a 26% discount which means to subtract 26% (the discount) from 100% (the original price)

The new price of the item has to be 74% of the original price.

74% of $4.50   is the same as saying 26% discount.

But what is the number?

To calculate 74% of $4.50, turn 74% into a decimal which is 0.74, then multiply it by 4.50.

0.74 x 4.50   = 3.33

In conclusion, after a 26% discount on an item that is originally $4.50, the new price (sale price) of the item is now $3.33

Write the standard form of the equation of a line with a slope of 3 passing through the point (-5, -6).

Select one:
a. -x + 3y + 13 = 0
b. -3x + y - 9 = 0
c. 3x - y + 9 = 0
d. x - 3y - 13 = 0

Answers

Answer:

Step 1: We need to first find the equation of the line in slope-intercept form by finding b, or the y-intercept.

[tex]-6 = 3(-5) + b\\\\-6 = -15 + b\\\\9 = b[/tex]

Step 3: We now need to write the equation of the line in slope-intercept form.

[tex]y = 3x + 9[/tex]

Step 3: Now we convert the above equation from slope-intercept form to standard form.

[tex]y = 3x + 9\\\\-3x + y = 9\\\\-3x + y - 9 = 0[/tex]

Our equation in standard form is: B. -3x + y - 9 = 0.

If two angles of a triangle measure 20 and 130 degrees, what is the measure of the third angle?

A.) 40°
B.) 50°
C.) 30°
D.) 60°

Answers

Answer:

c.) 30 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

the sum of the angles of a triangle is 180 degrees

so if the third angle was x

then

x=180-(20+130)

x=180-150

x=30 degrees

The measure of third angle is 30 degree.

What is Angle Sum property?

The total of a triangle's three internal angles is 180 degrees, as stated by the angle sum feature of a triangle. A closed shape with both inner and exterior angles, a triangle is created by three line segments.

Given:

Two angles are 20 and 130.

Using Angle sum property of triangle

<1 + <2 + <3 = 180

20+ 130 + <3= 180

150 + <3 = 180

<3 = 180- 150

<3 = 30

Hence, the third angle is 30 degree.

Which graph shows the solution to the equation f(x)= (x-1)(x+4)

Answers

Answer:

the firstn one

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the function:

[tex]f(x)=(x-1)(x+4)[/tex]

This is a quadratic in factored form.

The zeros of our function will be the opposites of our factors.

We have the factors (x-1) and (x+4).

Therefore, the zeros of our function must be at x=1 and x=-4.

Also, notice that the coefficient of our x-variable are both positive.

Therefore, the leading coefficient will also be positive.

So, this means that our graph must curve upwards.

Therefore, our graph must be curving upwards while crossing the points x=1 and x=-4.

So, our answer is D.

The formula d-2r can be used to find the distance(d) traveled after 2 hours when driving at rate r.
A. Solve the formula for r.





B. Find the rate(r) when the distance traveled is 130 miles.

Answers

Answer:

A. d/2 = r

B. r=65 miles/hour

Step-by-step explanation:

A. d/2 = 2r/2

B. Using the formula you found for R it is

130/2= r, therefore r = 65

The formula for r is:

r = d/2.

The rate r when the distance traveled is 130 miles is:

= 64 miles per hour.

Given,

The formula d = 2r can be used to find the distance(d) traveled after 2 hours when driving at rate r.

We need to:

- Solve the formula for r.

- Find the rate(r) when the distance traveled is 130 miles.

What is the formula for speed?

Speed = distance / time

We can find the distance as:

distance = speed x time

We have,

d = 2r where d = distance and r = rate.

Here 2 = 2 hours

The formula for r :

d = 2r

Divide both sides by 2.

d/2 = r

r = d/2

r = distance / 2 hours

The rate at a distance of 130 miles is:

d = 130 miles

r = d / 2

r = 130 / 2 = 65 miles / hour

Thus,

The formula for r is d/2.

The rate r when the distance traveled is 130 miles is 64 miles per hour.

Answers

Answer:

$42.12

Step-by-step explanation:

The original price of the shoes was $65.

Everything is 40% off. Therefore, the new price of the shoes now will be the original price minus 40% of 65.

40% of 65 is 0.4(65) or $26. So, $26 was deducted.

This means that the new price will be $65-$26 or $39.

There’s also an 8% sales tax that will be applied. So, Gretta’s total will be the new price of the shoes plus the sales tax being applied to the shoes.

The sales tax is 8% of 0.08. So, when applied to the shoes, it will be: 0.08(39) or $3.12.

Therefore, the total sum Gretta will pay is $39 (the new price) + $3.12 (the sales tax) for a grand total of $42.12
