The average speed of Joshua during that time is 2500 m/h.

Explanation:

It is given that Joshua started cycling at 5:15 pm. By 8:09 pm he has covered a distance of 7250 m.

The total time taken by Joshua from 5:15 pm to 8:09 pm is

$2 { h } 54 \text { min }=2 \mathrm{h}+\frac{54}{60} {h}$

Dividing we get,

$2 { h } 54 \text { min }=2 \mathrm{h}+0.9 {h}$

Adding, we have,

$2 { h } 54 \text { min }=2.9 {h}$

Thus, the total time taken by Joshua is $2.9 {h}$

To determine the average speed we use the formula,

$speed=\frac{distance}{time}$

where $distance=7250$ and $time=2.9$

Hence, substituting the values we have,

$speed=\frac{7250}{2.9}$

Dividing, we get,

$speed=2500$

Thus, the average speed of Joshua during that time is 2500 m/h.

Addie walked 2 1 2 miles in 45 minutes. Suzie covered 2 2 5 miles in 2 3 of an hour. Which girl walked faster? By how much?

kobusy [5.1K]

Answer:

Suzie walks faster by 0.27 miles per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

Addie walked $2\frac{1}{2}$ miles in 45 minutes and Suzie covered $2\frac{2}{5}$ miles in $\frac{2}{3}$ of an hour.

So, Addie walked 2.5 miles in 45 minutes i.e. $\frac{45}{60} = 0.75$ hours.

Therefore, the walking speed of Addie is $\frac{2.5}{0.75} = 3.33$ miles per hour.

Again, Suzie covered $2\frac{2}{5}$ i.e. 2.4 miles in $\frac{2}{3}$ i.e. 0.67 hours.

So, the walking speed of Suzie is $\frac{2.4}{0.67} = 3.6$ miles per hour.

Hence, Suzie walks faster by (3.6 - 3.33) = 0.27 miles per hour. (Answer)

Please help me! Don't answer unless you are SURE that the answer is right, please! Will give 25 points.

Veronika [31]

the first thing to note is since one gallon= 60 miles then 1/2 gallon= 30 miles, now I know 1/2 is not an answer but it is easiest to decrease in moderate amounts. 1/2 gallon= 48 Km so we are close, and 1/2=0.5 so if we brought it down to 0.42 we would have 25.2 miles and 25.2 miles = 40.32. The question wants to know the approximate number and 40.32 is the closest we are going to get so the answer is 0.42

question 3

Answer:

80 + 65x ≤ 425

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all we know that the 425 must be greater than or equal to the other side, so the symbol to show that would be ≤. We also know that the forklift is a fixed price by the words 'each day'. And the to hire a single crew member would be $65 unless there are more crew workers, which would be multiplied with the 65.

question 4

Jimthompson5910Expert

Part A

Yes y is a function of x. Specifically the equation is y = x^5

For any given input, there is exactly one output

Notice how if x = 1 then y = x^5 = (1)^5 = 1

Notice how if x = -1 then y = x^5 = (-1)^5 = -1

Notice how if x = -2 then y = x^5 = (-2)^5 = -32

Notice how if x = 2 then y = x^5 = (2)^5 = 32

In general,

x^5 = x*x*x*x*x

there are five copies of x multiplied

A more specific example

3^5 = 3*3*3*3*3

there are five copies of '3' multiplied

=====================================================

Part B

All we do is replace x with 4 and use PEMDAS to simplify

f(x) = 2x+12

f(4) = 2(4)+12

f(4) = 8+12

f(4) = 20

The value of f(4) is 20

What does it mean? It is the total cost of renting the bowling lane for 4 hours. If you rent it for four hours, then you'll pay a total of $20.

The portion 2x = 2*4 = 8 is the variable cost which depends on how long you play. The more hours, the more the variable cost goes up

The fixed cost is 12. This is always fixed as this is the price to get in the door. If you play for 0 hours, but somehow got in the door, then you still pay $12

In total, variableCost+fixedCost = 8+12 = 20 = totalCost

A box of 20 Crunchy Munchy cookies costs $2.50 and a box of 40 Crunchy Munchy cookies costs $4.00. One quart of milk costs $1.50

Otrada [13]

20 crunchy munchy=2.50 this means 2.50/20=0.125 cents per candy (i assume is candy)
40 crunchy munchy=4.00 4/40=0.100 cents per candy - this is cheaper than previous one
1 quart of milk =1.50 dollars
you cant actuality compare candy to milk

Find the length of side AB<br> Give answer to 3 significant figures

Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

AB = 8.857 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we are given a <em>right angle</em> $\triangle ABC$ in which we have the following things:

$\angle A = 90 ^\circ\\\angle C = 41 ^\circ\\\text{Side }BC = 13.5 cm$

Side <em>BC </em>is the hypotenuse here.

We have to find the side <em>AB</em>.

Trigonometric functions can be helpful to find the value of Side AB here.

Calculating $\angle B$ :

Sum of all the angles in $\triangle ABC$ is $180^\circ$ .

$\Rightarrow \angle A + \angle B + \angle C = 180^\circ\\\Rightarrow 90^\circ + \angle B + 41^\circ = 180^\circ\\\Rightarrow \angle B = 49^\circ$

We know that <em>cosine </em>of an angle is:

$cos \theta = \dfrac{\text{Base}}{\text{Hypotenuse}}\\\Rightarrow cos B = \dfrac{AB}{BC}\\\Rightarrow cos 49^\circ = \dfrac{AB}{13.5}\\\Rightarrow AB = 13.5 \times 0.656\\\Rightarrow AB = 8.857 cm$

So, side AB = 8.857 cm .
