2/5 + 4/9 +15 = 18+20+675/45 = 713/45 Answer: Sam made 713/45 or 15.84 bread rolls all in all.

Tju [1.3M]
Answer:

7 cups of flour

reason:

to find how much flour is needed, first you need to combine the two fractions.
to add the fractions, you first have to find a common denominator, which in this case is 15
multiply 1/5 by 3 to get 3/15, and 2/3 by 5 to get 10/15. combined, this is 13/15
since the answer is looking for the best estimate, you take the overall amount of flour, which would be 6 13/15, which is closer to 7 cups than 6

(I may be wrong this is just how I did it)

Students who party before an exam are twice as likely to fail as those who don't party (and presumably study). If 20% of the stu
True [87]

Answer:

The fraction of the students who failed to went partying = \frac{1}{10}

Step-by-step explanation:

Let total number of students = 100

No. of students partied are twice the no. of students who not partied.

⇒ No. of students partied = 2 × the no. of students who are not partied

No. of students partied before the exam = 20 % of total students

⇒ No. of students partied before the exam = \frac{20}{100} × 100

⇒ No. of students partied before the exam =  20

No. of students who not partied before the exam = \frac{20}{2} = 10

Thus the fraction of the students who failed to went partying = \frac{10}{100} = \frac{1}{10}

You are traveling down a country road at a rate of 95 feet/sec when you see a large cow 300 feet in front of you and directly in
emmainna [20.7K]

Answer:

1) You can rely solely on your brakes because when doing so the car will just travel 250ft from the point you hit your brakes till the point the car stopped completely, leaving you 50ft away from the cow.

2) See attached picture.

j(t) represents the distance from the point you hit the brake t seconds after you hit it in feet

j'(t) represents the velocity of the car t seconds after the brakes have been hit in ft/s.

j"(t) represents the acceleration of the car t seconds after the brakes have been hit in ft/s^{2}

3) yes, any time after t=5.28 will not accurately model the path of the car since at that exact time the car will reach a velocity of 0ft/s and unless another force is applied to the car, then the car will not move after that time.

4) j(t)=\left \{ {{95t-9t^{2}; 0\le t

j'(t)=\left \{ {{95-18t; 0\leq t

(see attached picture for graph)

Step-by-step explanation:

1) In this part of the problem we need to find the time when the speed of the car is 0. Gets to a complete stop. For this we will need to take the derivative of the position function so we get:

j(t)=95t-9t^2

j'(t)=95-18t

and we set the first derivative equal to zero so we get:

95-18t=0

and solve for t

-18t=-95

t=\frac{95}{18}

t=5.28s

so now we calculate the position of the car after 5.28 seconds, so we get:

j(5.28)=95(5.28)-9(5.28)^{2}

j(5.28)=250.69ft

so we have that the car will stop 250.69ft after he hit the brakes, so there will be about 50ft between the car and the cow when the car stops completely, so he can rely just on the breaks.

2) For answer 2 I take the second derivative of the function so I get:

j(t)=95t-9t^{2}

j'(t)=95-18t

j"(t)=-18

and then we graph them. (See attached picture)

j(t) represents the distance from the point you hit the brake t seconds after you hit it in feet

j'(t) represents the velocity of the car t seconds after the brakes have been hit in ft/s.

j"(t) represents the acceleration of the car t seconds after the brakes have been hit in ft/s^{2}

3)  yes, any time after t=5.28 will not accurately model the path of the car since at that exact time the car will reach a velocity of 0ft/s and unless another force is applied to the car, then the car will not move after that time.

4) j(t)=\left \{ {{95t-9t^{2}; 0\le t

j'(t)=\left \{ {{95-18t; 0\leq t

(see attached picture for graph)
