Answer 1

Answer:

heres what i did on the 2.1.4 practice problem on apex

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Circle the two boats you picked for your trip.

the yacht and the tall ship (aka the pirate ship)

2. Make sense of the problem.

what do you know?

The tall ship makes the trip in 10 hours. The yacht makes the trip in 2.5 hours. The tall ship is 30 knots slower than the yacht.

what do you want to find out?

How fast is each boat traveling in knots (nautical miles per hour)?

what kind of answer do you expect?

probably just some numbers like 10 miles per hour or 40 miles per hour

Writing some expressions

3. Write an expression for the distance going to the island. Let x be the speed of the boat you are taking to the island. Distance is equal to speed times time. (2 points)

the expression would be D = 10(x-30), d is the distance. it could also be simplified to 10x - 300

4. Write an expression for the speed of the boat coming back from the island in terms of the other boat's speed. Let x be the speed of the boat you are taking to the island. (2 points)

so the yacht's speed would be S = x knots, s is for speed.

5. Write an expression for the distance returning from the island. Use the expression for speed you found in question 4. Remember that distance is equal to speed times time. (2 points)

the distance returning from the island would be D = 2.5x.

6. Each ship travels the same distance. Set the distances equal to each other to get the equation for the speed of the ship you are taking to the island. (1 point)

10x - 300 = 2.5x

7. Solve the equation from question 6 for x. What does this tell you? (5 points: 1 point for showing your work, 3 points for solving for x, 1 point for explaining the answer)

  10x - 300 = 2.5x  

10x - 300 + 300 = 2.5x + 300

  10x -2.5x = 300

   7.5x = 300

        x = 40

x is the speed of the yacht. (40 nautical miles per hour)

8. How fast does the second boat travel? Show your work. (2 points: 1 point for showing your work, 1 point for the answer)

the yacht travels at 40 nautical miles per hour and the tall ship travels at 100 (10x - 300) nautical miles per hour.

9. When you get to the island, you decide to take a kayak tour to a nearby reef. A kayak is a small boat you row with a paddle.

Find the speed for the kayak. Use one of these facts to help.

The steamboat's speed is 4 less than 8 times the speed of the kayak.

The tall ship's speed is 1 more than 3 times the speed of the kayak.

The yacht's speed is 5 less than 15 times the speed of the kayak.

Write and solve an equation for the speed of the kayak. Show your work. (5 points: 2 points for writing a correct equation, 3 points for the solution)

the equation for the speed of the kayak is 40 = 15x - 5, which in this case, x is the speed of the kayak

 

 40 = 15x - 5

  40 + 5 = 15x -5 + 5

 45 = 15x

   x = 3

therefore, the speed of the kayak is 3 nautical miles per hour.

10. The length of your trip to the island is 40 nautical miles less than 20 times the distance to the reef.

It's 2:00 p.m. now, and your boat leaves the island at 7:30 p.m. Will you be able to kayak to the reef and back by then?

If so, how long will you have to spend at the reef?

If not, how late will you be for the return trip?

Explain how you plan to solve this problem. Then solve the problem, showing all work. (5 points: 2 points for the explanation of the plan, 1 point for deciding if you will make it back to the island on time, and 2 points for determining either how long you can spend at the reef or how late you'll be)

the distance to the island is 100 nautical miles, so the expression would be 100 = 20x -40, with x being the distance to the reef.

we can solve for x by doing:

100 = 20x -40

100 + 40 = 20x - 40 + 40

140 = 20x

140 / 20 = x

    x = 7

so the distance from my starting point to the reef will be 7 nautical miles, and the distance from the island to the reef would be 93 nautical miles.in that case, I would be like a day and a half late, but if you are trying to say that the ship is waiting for me at the starting point of my "adventure", then I would not be late if I kayak from my starting point to the reef, in fact, I could stay at the reef for like 50 min, because:

7 / 3 = 2 1/3 hours.

2 1/3 x 2 = 4 2/3 hours or 280 min. (to the reef and back)

7:30 p.m. - 2:00 p.m. = 5 1/2 hours or 330 min. (how much time I have till the ship leaves)

330 - 280 = 50 min. (how many min I can spend at the reef)

is the population of cats on another island whose cat population was originally 11,000 but is doubling every 14 months. (t is time in months.)

Answers

Answer:

P = 11,000(2)^t/11

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula is given as:

P = Po(2)^t/d

Where

Po = Initial population = 11,000

t = time in months

d = doubling time = 11 months

Hence,

P = 11,000(2)^t/11

Hence, the population of cats is given by the equation:

P = 11,000(2)^t/11

Step-by-step explanation:

we have the point

so when

x=2

y=4

so we can try on all equations

[tex]y_1=2|x-2|-4\\\\y_1=2|2-2|-4\\\\y_1=2|0|-4\\\\y_1=0-4\\\\y_1=-4[/tex]

so equation 1 could be

[tex]y_2=\frac{1}{2} |x-2|-4\\\\y_2=\frac{1}{2}|2-2|-4\\\\y_2=\frac{1}{2}|0|-4\\\\y_2=0-4\\\\y_2=-4[/tex]

so equation 2 could be

[tex]y_3=2|x+2|-4\\\\y_3=2|2+2|-4\\\\y_3=2|4|-4\\\\y_3=8-4\\\\y_3=4[/tex]

so equation 3 is not

[tex]y_4=\frac{1}{2}|x+2|-4\\\\y_4=\frac{1}{2}|2+2|-4\\\\y_4=\frac{1}{2}|4|-4\\\\y_4=\frac{1}{2}(4)-4\\\\y_4=2-4\\\\y_4=-2[/tex]

so equation 4 is not

So another point that we have is

[tex](0,-3)[/tex]

so we plug in

[tex]y_1=2|x-2|-4\\\\y_1=2|0-2|-4\\\\y_1=2|-2|-4\\\\y_1=4-4\\\\y_1=0[/tex]

so this isn't

[tex]y_2=\frac{1}{2}|x-2|-4\\\\y_2=\frac{1}{2}|0-2|-4\\\\y_2=\frac{1}{2}|-2|-4\\\\y_2=\frac{1}{2}(2)-4\\\\y_2=1-4\\\\y_2=-3[/tex]

to nearest hundreth.
12 cm
7 cm​

Answers

Answer:

The perimeter of the shape below is 44.48cm

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the perimeter of this figure we have to add

7cm + 12cm + 7cm + ( perimeter of semicircle)

To calculate the perimeter of the semicircle we have to use the following equation

d = 12cm

r = d/2 = 12cm/2 = 6cm

c = perimeter of semicircle

r = radius = 6cm

π = 3.14

c = π * r

we replace with the known values

c = * 3.14 * 6cm

c = 18.84cm

The perimeter of the semicircle is 18.84cm

Now that we have this value we can calculate the perimeter of the figure

7cm + 12cm + 7cm + ( 18.84cm ) = 44.48cm

The perimeter of the figure is 56.84 cm

What is the area of the rectangle?

The formula for area is equal to the product of the length and breadth of the rectangle. Whereas when we speak about the perimeter of a rectangle, it is equal to the sum of all its four sides.

Given here: A semicircle on top of the rectangle with dimensions 12, 7 cm respectively .

Thus perimeter of the figure = perimeter of semi circle+ perimeter of rectangle

∴ 3.14×6+2(12+7)=56.84 cm

Hence, The perimeter of the figure is 56.84 cm

The length of a rectangle is twice the width. The perimeter is 48in. Find the dimensions of the rectangle.

Answers

perimeter = p
length = l
width = w

p = 2l + 2w

p = 48
l = 2w
w = ?

now plug those values into the base equation (p = 2l + 2w)

48 = 2(2w) + 2w
then solve for w
48 = 4w + 2w
48 = 6w
w = 8

because l is 2w, find the length using the width value (8)

l = 2w = 2(8) = 16

SO

length = 16 in
width = 8 in
perimeter = 48 in

Answer:

w = 6in

l = 12in

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem we propose 2 equations

2w + 2l = 48in

l = 2w

We replace the value of l = (2w) into the first equation and solve

2w + 2(2w) = 48in

2w + 4w = 48in

6w = 48in

w = 48in/6

w = 8in

we replace the value of w and solve

l = 2(8in)

l = 16in

The two consecutive even integers such that four times the first equals three times the second is 6 and 8.

What is an integer ?

An integer is a number which has no decimal part.

According to the given question we have to find two consecutive even integers such that four times the first equals three times the second.

Let, the first even integer to be x.

∴ The second integer will be (x+2).          [ As every consecutive even                                                                                    

                                                                            integers comes after 2 digits]

Now, Four times the first equals three times the second which is

4x = 3(x+2)

4x = 3x + 6.

4x - 3x = 6

x = 6.

∴ The even integer is 6 and the second integer is 8.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since 6/100 is equal to 0.06, we can say that 6 is the result of multiplying 0.06 by one hundred (0.06 x 100 = 6).

On the other hand, since 0.06 / 10 is equal to 0.006, it is correct to say that 0.006 x 10 is equal to 0.06 (0.006 x 10 = 0.06).

Finally, 60 is one hundredth of 6000, since multiplying 60 x 100 the result is 6,000 (6,000 / 100 = 60).
