Travis made a business trip of

195.5 miles. He averaged

53 mph for the first part of the trip and

58 mph for the second part. If the trip took

3.5 hours, how long did he travel at each rate?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

At 53 mph, he traveled for 1.5 hours

At 58 mph, he traveled for 2 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Mathematically;

distance = speed * time

let the time for the first part of the trip be x hours and the second part be y hours

Total hours is 3.5

So therefore;

x + y = 3.5 ••••••••(i)

Now let’s work with the rate

53 mph for x hours = 53 * x = 53x miles

58 mph for y hours = 58 * y = 58y miles

Adding both;

53x + 58y = 195.5 miles ••••••••(ii)

We have two equations to solve simultaneously

From i, x = 3.5 - y

insert into ii

53(3.5-y) + 58y = 195.5

185.5 - 53y + 58y = 195.5

5y = 195.5-185.5

5y = 10

y = 10/5

y = 2 hours

x = 3.5 - y

x = 3.5 - 2

x = 1.5 hours

A long year-end status report for work is 81 pages long. You need to print 12 copies for a meeting next week. How much is the paper going to cost for those reports? Paper is sold in reams (500 pages) for $3.96 each.

Give your answer to the nearest cent, only for the paper you use (partial reams are OK)

Answers

Answer:

770cents

Step-by-step explanation:

If a report is 81 pages long, 12 copies will be (81 * 12)pages long

12copies = 972 pages long

If 500 pages costs $3.96 each

972 pages will cost $x

Cross multiply

500x = 972 * 3.96

500x = 3,849.12

x = 3,849.12/500

x = 7.69824

Hence the cost of the reports is $7.69824

Convert to cents;

$1 = 100cents

$7.69824 = y

y = 7.69824 * 100

y = 769.824 cents

y ≈ 770 cents (to the nearest cent.)

Hence the paper is going to cost 770cents (to the nearest cent)

A swimming pool has two pipes coming into it to fill it with water. One pipe takes 16 hours to fill it. The other takes 12 hours to fill it. How many hours will it take both pipes to fill the pool?

Answers

Answer:

8 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

8 hours because half of 16 is 8 and half of 12 is 6

If it takes 6 hours to fill one half then the other 2 hours would go to the other pipe making it 8 hours

A rectangular prism has a volume of 686 cubic units. How many unit cubes would fill the volume of the solid if they were packed without any gaps or overlaps?

Answers

Answer:

2 unit cubes of 7 units side length can fill the volume of the solid without overlap

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of a cube is L^3

Let the number of cubes be n

Since the cubes are similar,

then;

nL^3 = 686

nL^3 = 343 * 2

By inspection

L^3 = 343 (since it is a perfect cube and the cube root is 7)

n = 2

The cash price of a laptop is $1299. It can be bought at hire purchase by making a deposit of $350 and 10 monthly payments at $120 each.

(i) What is the TOTAL hire purchase

(ii) How much is saved by buying the laptop for cash​

Answers

(i) t = 350 + 120(10) = $1,550
(ii) 1550 - 1299 = save $251

I) The TOTAL hire purchase of the laptop is; $1550

II) The amount saved by buying the laptop for cash is; $251

I) We are told that the laptop can be bought at hire purchase by making a deposit of $350 and 10 monthly payments at $120 each.

Thus;

Cost of laptop by hire purchase = 350 + 120(10)

>> 350 + 1200

>> $1550

II) Since the cash price is $1299, then amount saved = 1550 - 1299

>> $251

A patio 44, feet wide is being constructed next to a house. To drain water off the patio and away from the house, a slope of 1/2 inch per foot is necessary. What total

difference in height is required from one edge of the patio to the other?

Answers

Answer:

the total difference in height will be 22 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

since the slope is 0.5 inch per foot, and the patio is 44 feet wide, the end of the patio will be 0.5 x 44 = 22 inches lower

the slope measures how much the height (Y axis) will change as the length (X axis) increases by 1 unit. In this case, since the height decreases as the length increases the slope is negative.  

Write the slope- intercept form of the equation of the line described through (4,5) parallel to y= 1/4x-4

Answers

Answer:

y = 1/4 x + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Because the new equation is parallel to y= 1/4x - 4 => the slope is still the same => New equation : y = 1/4x + b ( b is a number that we'll find now)

2. Put x = 4 and y = 5 in the new equation

=> 5 = (1/4)(4) + b

=> b = 4

3. So then we'll have the new equation that is parallel to y = 1/4x-4

Approximate the logarithm using the properties of logarithms, given
logb 2 ≈ 0.3562,

logb 3 ≈ 0.5646,
and
logb 5 ≈ 0.8271.

Bob paid $5.60 for 0.8 lb of fresh peaches.

How much would 3.25 lb of peaches cost?

Answers

Answer:

22.75

Step-by-step explanation:

5.6 divided by 0.8=Constant Variation=7

3.25*7=22.75

The price of the 3.25 lb peaches is $22.75.

What is an expression?

The mathematical expression combines numerical variables and operations denoted by addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division signs.

Mathematical symbols can be used to represent numbers (constants), variables, operations, functions, brackets, punctuation, and grouping. They can also denote the logical syntax's operation order and other properties.

Given that Bob paid $5.60 for 0.8 lb of fresh peaches. The price of the 3.25 lb peaches will be calculated as,

0.8 lb of peaches ⇒ $5.60

1 lb of peach ⇒ $5.60 / 0.8

3.25 lb of peaches ⇒ (3.25 x $5.60 ) / 0.8

3.25 lb of peaches ⇒ $22.75

Therefore, the price of the 3.25 lb peaches is $22.75.

1) Fairview and Abbots Rise are 5 in apart on a map that has a scale of 1 in : 18 mi. How far apart are the real cities? 2) A particular satellite is 12 ft wide. A model of it was built with a scale of 1 in :3 ft. How wide is the model? Please help me I have 4 more questoins

Answers

Answer:

1) 90 mi

2) 4 inch

Step-by-step explanation:

1)

Given that the distance between Fairview and Abbots Rise on the map = 5 in

Scale of the map = 1 in: 18 mi

i.e. 1 inch on map is equivalent to an actual distance equal to 18 mi between the cities.

Given that the map has a distance of 5 inches.

Therefore, the actual distance between the cities = 5 [tex]\times[/tex] 18 = 90 mi

2) A particular satellite is 12 ft wide.

Model's scale = 1 in : 3 ft

i.e. 1 inch on map is equivalent to actual distance of 3 ft.

OR

3 ft of actual distance = 1 in on map

1 ft of actual distance = [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex] in on map

12 ft of actual distance = [tex]\frac{1}{3}\times 12 = \bold{4\ inch}[/tex]

the weights of steers in a herd are distributed normally. the standard deviation is 200lbs and the mean steer weight is 1400lbs. find the probability that the weight of a randomly selected steer is less than 1859lbs

Answers

Answer:

The probability that the weight of a randomly selected steer is less than 1859lbs is 0.9890

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Mean = 1400 lbs

SD = 200 lbs

In order to find the probability of a random variable x we have to find the z-score of the data point.

z-score is calculated by:

[tex]z = \frac{x-mean}{SD}[/tex]

Putting x=1859

[tex]z = \frac{1859-1400}{200}\\z = \frac{459}{200}\\z = 2.295[/tex]

The z-score for 1859 is 2.295

We have to use the z-score table to find the required probability

So,

[tex]P(z<2.295)\ or\ P(x<1859) = 0.9890[/tex]

Hence,

The probability that the weight of a randomly selected steer is less than 1859lbs is 0.9890

Answer:

x : z = 8 : 25

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x : y = 2 : 5, y is 80% of z

Rearranging the ratios:

x/y = 2/5 ⇒ x/y = 0.4 ⇒ y = x/0.4 ⇒ y = 2.5xy is 80% of z ⇒ y = 0.8z

Comparing the values of y:

2.5x = 0.8zx/z = 0.8/2.5x/z = 0.32x/z = 32/100 x/z =  8/25x : z = 8 : 25

Hope this helped.

4 divided by 0.576 is approximately equal to 6.9444.

To find the result of 4 divided by 0.576, we can perform the division by dividing the numerator ( 4 ) by the denominator ( 0.576 ).

When we divide 4 by 0.576, we get approximately 6.9444.

Therefore, 4 divided by 0.576 is approximately equal to 6.9444.

In decimal form, this indicates that 4 can be divided into 0.576 approximately 6.9444 times. The result is a decimal number that extends to multiple decimal places. To obtain a more precise or exact answer, additional decimal places may need to be considered in the calculation.
