Answer: Sue spends travelling 3.5 hours and spends stationary 2.5 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

The attached image shows Sue's distance-time graph, from there we can observe the segments where she is stationary (lines with no slope) and the segments where she is travelling (lines with slope).

<u>Time spent travelling:</u>

From 2 p.m. to 3 p.m. is 1 hour

From 3:30 p.m. to 4 p.m. is 0.5 hour

From 5 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. is 1.5 hours

From 7:30 p.m. to 8 p.m. is 0.5 hour

Total time travelling=1 h+0.5 h+1.5h+0.5h=3.5 h

<u>Time spent stationary:</u>

From 3 p.m. to 3:30 p.m. is 0.5 hour

From 4 p.m. to 5 p.m. is 1 hour

From 6:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. is 1 hour

Total time travelling=0.5 h+1 h+1h=2.5 h

Alice and Briana each participate in a 5 kilometer race. Alice's distance covered, in kilometers, after t minutes can be modeled
Pavel [41]

Answer:

a. Alice

b. Briana

c. 0.51 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

a. Alice formula is valid for any t > 0 minutes, but Briana formula is only valid for

2t - 1 > 0

2t > 1

t > 1/2 minutes

b. They finish when their covered distance is equal to 5 kilometers. For Alice:

t/4 = 5

t = 5*4 = 20 minutes

For Briana:

√(2t - 1) = 5

2t - 1 = 5²

2t = 25 + 1

t = 26/2

t = 13 minutes

c. They are side by side when they have covered the same distance, that is:

t/4 = √(2t - 1)

(t/4)² = 2t - 1

t²/16 = 2t - 1

t² = 16*(2t - 1)

t² = 32t - 16

t² - 32t + 16 = 0

Using quadratic formula:

t = \frac{-b \pm \sqrt{b^2 - 4(a)(c)}}{2(a)}

t = \frac{32 \pm \sqrt{-32^2 - 4(1)(16)}}{2(1)}

t = \frac{32 \pm 30.98}{2}

t_1 = \frac{32 + 30.98}{2}

t_1 = 31.49

t_2 = \frac{32 - 30.98}{2}

t_2 = 0.51

Only the second answer has sense for this problem because the race already finished before they spent 31.49 minutes in it.

If m∠2 = 41°, m∠5 = 94°, and m∠10 = 109°, find each measure.
Orlov [11]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

It's given in this question,

m∠2 = 41°, m∠5 = 94° and m∠10 = 109°

Since, ∠2 ≅ ∠9 [Alternate interior angles]

m∠2 = m∠9 = 41°

m∠8 + m∠9 + m∠10 = 180° [Sum of angles at a point of a line]

m∠8 + 41 + 109 = 180

m∠8 = 180 - 150

m∠8 = 30°

Since, m∠2 + m∠7 + m∠8 = 180° [Sum of interior angles of a triangle]

41 + m∠7 + 30 = 180

m∠7 = 180 - 71

m∠7 = 109°

m∠6 + m∠7 = 180° [linear pair of angles]

m∠6 + 109 = 180

m∠6 = 180 - 109

        = 71°

Since m∠5 + m∠4 = 180° [linear pair of angles]

m∠4 + 94 = 180

m∠4 = 180 - 94

m∠4 = 86°

Since, m∠4 + m∠3 + m∠9 = 180° [Sum of interior angles of a triangle]

86 + m∠3 + 41 = 180

m∠3 = 180 - 127

m∠3 = 53°

m∠1 + m∠2 + m∠3 = 180° [Angles on a point of a line]

m∠1 + 41 + 53 = 180

m∠1 = 180 - 94

m∠1 = 86°

George and Chin work as landscapers. George charges $90 for a 6-hour job. Chin charges $84 for the same job.The table shows thei
gulaghasi [49]
The equation must equal 84, so you can eliminate B and D.

Chin charges a rate for 2 hours, then charges a reduced rate for 4 hours. There are no discounts present in his rate, so you can eliminate A.

The equation for Chin's charges can be found by the equation C. 2x + 4y = 84.

If leticia invested $12,000 in an account in which the interest earned is continuously compounded at a rate of %2.5 find the tot
Luda [366]

Given:

Principal value = $12000

Rate of interest = 2.5%

To find:

Total amount after 15 years.

Solution:

Formula for amount discontinuously compounded interest is

A=Pe^{rt}

where, P is principal, r is rate of interest and t is time in years.

Substitute P=12000, r=0.025 and t=15 in the above formula.

A=12000e^{0.025(15)}

A=12000e^{0.375}

A=12000(1.45499141462)

A=17459.8969754

A\approx 17459.897

Therefore, the amount after 15 years is $17459.897.
