Answer:

The company produced 27 motorcycle tires that week.

Step-by-step explanation:

This question can be solved using a system of equations.

I am going to say that:

x is the number of car tyres produced that week.

y is the number of motorcycle tyres produced that week.

70 vehicles:

This means that x + y = 70

269 tires:

A car has four tyres, and an extra spare tyre is produced. So for each car, 5 tyres.

A motorcycle has two tyres. No spares are produced. So

5x + 2y = 269

We want to find y.

From the first equation:

x = 70 - y

Replacing in the second

5(70 - y) + 2y = 269

350 - 5y + 2y = 269

3y = 81

y = \frac{81}{3}

y = 27

The company produced 27 motorcycle tires that week.

Find the average speed of a plane that leaves Bristol at 14.00 and lands in Rome at 17.15.The distance is 1200 miles
horrorfan [7]
It is very important to go through all the details that have been provided in the question. These information's will come in very handy while getting to the solution for the answer. Now let us concentrate on the problem in hand.
Distance between Bristol and Rome that the plane covers = 1200 miles
Starting time of the plane from Bristol = 14:00 hrs
Landing time of the plane in Rome = 17:15 hrs
Then
Total time taken by the plane to travel from Bristol to Rome = 17:15 - 14:00 hours
                                                                                               = 3 .15 hours
So
The average speed of the plane = 1200/3.15 miles per hour
                                                    = 380.95 miles per hour
From the above deduction we can conclude that the average speed of the plane traveling from Bristol to Rome is 380.95 miles per hour.

Write 0.00658 in standard form
Svetllana [295]

Answer:

0.00658 = 6.58 * 10^-3

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard form is a way of writing numbers easily in powers of 10.

To write a number in standard form, we have to move the decimal point to the front of the first non zero number.

Depending on the position of the decimal point to the first non zero number, movement can be towards the right or towards the left. When we move towards the right, our power of 10 will be negative, when we move in the left direction, our power of 10 will be positive

In this question, we shall be moving towards the right. Thus, our power of 10 is negative. We shall be moving towards the right 3 three times

Thus our power would be 10^-3

Thus our standard form will be 6.58 * 10^-3

Kindly note that another pointer is, if the value of our number to be written in standard form is less than zero, then the standard form will come in negative powers of 10. If the value of the number is greater or equal to 1 at least, then then the standard form will be in positive powers of 10

Alex found a new black bean soup recipe that calls for tomatoes and black beans. If tomatoes cost $1.60 per pound and black bean
djverab [1.8K]

Alex can buy at most 4 pounds of tomatoes

Let:

a represent pounds of tomatoes to buy

3a represent pounds of black beans to buy

Total cost of each ingredient that can be bought = number of pounds x price per pound

Tomatoes = a x $1.60 = 1.60a

Black beans = 3a x $1.70 = 5.1a

1.60a + 5.1a = 26.80

Add similar terms

6.7a = 26.80

Divide both sides of the equation by 6.7

a = 4 pounds

Find the midpoint of the segment between the points (3,17) and (−14,−8)
mixas84 [53]

Answer:

\large\boxed{\left(-\dfrac{11}{2},\ \dfrac{9}{2}\right)}

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula of a midpoint between two points A(x₁, y₁) and B(x₂, y₂):

M_{AB}\left(\dfrac{x_1+x_2}{2},\ \dfrac{y_1+y_2}{2}\right)

We have the points (3, 17) and (-14, -8).

Substitute:

M(x,\ y)\\\\x=\dfrac{3+(-14)}{2}=\dfrac{-11}{2}\\\\y=\dfrac{17+(-8)}{2}=\dfrac{9}{2}
