So, Mary Lou took\frac{5}{6} of an hour, that is \frac{5}{6}*60 mins=50 mins

Heather took \frac{9}{10} as much time as Mary Lou, so she took \frac{9}{10} of 50 minutes, that is \frac{9}{10}*50=45

45 minutes is less than 50, so Heather was faster and Mary Lou was slower and took longer!

Jesse and Mark are jogging along the route shown at a rate of 12 miles per hour. They start by jogging south along Capitol Stree
Ilya [14]
The hypotenuse of the way that they have taken is equal to 2 miles. Jogging this distance with a rate of 5 miles per hour will take Jesse 0.4 hours. Further, for Mark to be back to the starting point, the total distance covered is 2.75. Dividing the distance by 12 miles per hour, it will take Mark only 0.23 hours. Thus, Mark will reach the initial point first.

Mrs. Adams deposited $12,000 into an account that earns an annual simple interest rate of 3.25%. She makes no other deposits or
lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

<em>Mrs. Adams will earn $3,120 of interest at the end of year 8.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Simple Interest</u>

In simple interest, the money earns interest at a fixed rate, assuming no new money is coming in or out of the account.

We can calculate the interests earned by an investment of value A in a period of time t, at an interest rate r with the formula:

I=A.r.t

Mrs. Adams deposited an amount of A=$12,000 into an account that earns an annual simple interest rate of r=3.25%. We must find the interest earned in t=8 years. The interest rate is converted to decimal as:

r=3.25/100=0.0325

The interest is then calculated:

I=12,000\cdot 0.0325\cdot 8=3,120

Mrs. Adams will earn $3,120 of interest at the end of year 8.

Choose the function whose graph is given by:
loris [4]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

y=3sec\left(\frac{1}{2}x\right)

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

The graphs of sec(x) can be obtained from  the graph of the cosine function using the reciprocal identity, so:

sec(x)=\frac{1}{cos(x)}

But in this problem, the graph stands for the function:

y=3sec\left(\frac{1}{2}x\right)

Because the period is now 4π as indicated and for x=0 in the figure and this can be proven as follows:

Period=\frac{2\pi}{\frac{1}{2}}=4\pi

Also, for \ x=1 \ then \ y=3 as indicated in the figure and this can be proven as:

y=3sec\left(\frac{1}{2}x\right) \\ \\ y=\frac{3}{cos(0.5x)} \\ \\ y=\frac{3}{cos(0.5(0))} \\ \\ y=\frac{3}{1}=3
