e of a volcano, he heard some rumbling, so he decided to climb up out of there as quickly as he could. He climbed up at a constant rate. After 4.54.54, point, 5 seconds, he was 7.57.57, point, 5 meters below the edge of the volcano How fast did Shota climb? In total, how long did it take Shota to reach the edge of the volcano?

Answer:

5m/s;

6 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Initial position = 30 m below

He climbed at a constant rate, and was 7.5 m below after 4.5 s.

Distance climbed or covered in 4.5 seconds :

(Initial position - current position)

(30 - 7. 5)m = 22.5 meters

Using the relation:

Speed = distance covered / time taken

Therefore,

Shota's speed = 22.5m / 4.5s = 5m/s

Time taken to reach edge of volcano :

Distance left to cover = 7.5m

Speed = 5m/s

Time required to cover remaining distance :

= distance / speed

= (7.5m ÷ 5m/s) = 1.5s

Total time to reach edge :

(4.5 + 1.5)s = 6 seconds

aniked [119]

Answer:

x = 37.5^{\circ}

Step-by-step explanation:

The central angle of the sector representing rent expenses in the pie chart is found by simple rule of three:

x = \frac{Rs. 250}{Rs. 2400}\times 360^{\circ}

x = 37.5^{\circ}

A school principal has to choose randomly among the six best students in each grade to be the school captain every month. For th
Viefleur [7K]

Since there are 6 students out of which one needs to be selected, the principal chose two die on which there are six numbers each numbered from 1 , 2, 3, 4, 5, 6.

Since there are two dice, the total possible outcome is 36.

Hence, the probability of getting one number each is 1/36

Hence, the principal used a fair method because each result is an equally likely possible outcome.

Option B is correct.

If 10x + 2 = 7, what is the value of 2x?
Julli [10]

For this case we have the following equation:

10x + 2 = 7

From here, we clear the value of x.

We have then:

10x = 7-2\\10x = 5\\x = \frac {5} {10}\\x = \frac {1} {2}

Then, we look for the value of 2x. We have then:

2x = 2 \frac {1} {2}\\2x = \frac {2} {2}\\2x = 1

Answer:

The value of 2x is given by:

2x = 1

This unit focused, in part, on relationships in triangles. A triangle is the simplest type of polygon and is frequently used in
Galina-37 [17]
The answers are as follows:
1. Triangles are often used to build different types of support structures because of its beneficial properties. Triangles is rigid in shape and it has strength. When force is applied to the side of a triangle, it can not shift into another shape, this is because its sides and angles are fixed. 
2. The properties of triangle that make it a desirable geometric shape for building support structures is its fixed sides, fixed angles, rigidity and strength. Triangles are the strongest shapes and they are stable. Thus, triangle can be easily fix together to provide strength and stability over a wide area.
3. There are different types of triangles, these include: equilateral triangle, scalene, isosceles, right triangle, obtuse and acute. Of all these triangles, the best triangle is equilateral triangle.  
4. Triangle is preferred over other types of polygon because, it is the strongest. The other polygons can be bent into different other forms that are not regular polygon, but a triangle always retains its shape and can not be deformed.
