Challenge A gold mine has two elevators, one for equipment and another for the miners. The
equipment elevator descends 6 feet per second. The elevator for the miners descends 15 feet per
second. One day, the equipment elevator begins to descend. After 21 seconds, the elevator for the
miners begins to descend. What is the position of each elevator relative to the surface after
another 17 seconds? At that time, which elevator is deeper?
The position of the equipment elevator relative to the surface is feet.

Answers

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

The equipment elevator is at a depth of 176 feet (-176 feet), while the miners elevator is at a depth of 210 feet (-210 feet) below the surface

ii. The miners elevator is deeper than that of the equipment.

The speed of an object is the rate at which the object moves.

i.e speed = \frac{distance}{time}

time

distance

Thus,

Speed of the equipment elevator = 4 feet per second

Speed of the miners elevator = 15 feet per second.

Time of descent of the equipment elevator = 30 + 14

= 44 seconds

So that, the distance of the elevator at this time is;

speed = \frac{distance}{time}

time

distance

⇒ distance = speed x time

= 4 x 44

= 176

distance = - 176 feet

The distance of the miners elevator after 14 seconds is:

speed = \frac{distance}{time}

time

distance

⇒ distance = speed x time

= 15 x 14

= 210

distance = - 210 feet

Thus after another 14 seconds, the equipment elevator is at a depth of 176 feet (-176 feet), while the miners elevator is at a depth of 210 feet (-210 feet) below the surface.

Therefore, the miners elevator is deeper than that of the equipment.

A rental car agency charges $220 per week plus $0.15 per mile to rent a car. How many miles can you travel in one week for $340?
The number of miles you can travel in one week for $340 is ?.

Answers

Answer:

800 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

You would make the equation .15x+ $200 and put that equal to 340 to get the equation:

.15x+$200=340

      -$200        (subtract the like term first)

.15x=120

.15x over 120

Your answer comes out to be x=800.

Please write ur question properly

Two lighthouses are located 75 miles from one another on a north-south line. If a boat is spotted S 40o E from the northern lighthouse and N 21o E from the southern lighthouse, how much closer is the closest lighthouse to the boat than the lighthouse furthest away? The northern lighthouse is 51.3 miles closer than the southern lighthouse. The northern lighthouse is 24.4 miles closer than the southern lighthouse. The northern lighthouse is 79.9 miles closer than the southern lighthouse. The northern lighthouse is 17.0 miles closer than the southern lighthouse.

Answers

Answer:

The northern lighthouse is approximately [tex]24.4\; \rm mi[/tex] closer to the boat than the southern lighthouse.

Step-by-step explanation:

Refer to the diagram attached. Denote the northern lighthouse as [tex]\rm N[/tex], the southern lighthouse as [tex]\rm S[/tex], and the boat as [tex]\rm B[/tex]. These three points would form a triangle.

It is given that two of the angles of this triangle measure [tex]40^{\circ}[/tex] (northern lighthouse, [tex]\angle {\rm N}[/tex]) and [tex]21^{\circ}[/tex] (southern lighthouse [tex]\angle {\rm S}[/tex]), respectively. The three angles of any triangle add up to [tex]180^{\circ}[/tex]. Therefore, the third angle of this triangle would measure [tex]180^{\circ} - (40^{\circ} + 21^{\circ}) = 119^{\circ}[/tex] (boat [tex]\angle {\rm B}[/tex].)

It is also given that the length between the two lighthouses (length of [tex]\rm NS[/tex]) is [tex]75\; \rm mi[/tex].

By the law of sine, the length of a side in a given triangle would be proportional to the angle opposite to that side. For example, in the triangle in this question, [tex]\angle {\rm B}[/tex] is opposite to side [tex]\rm NS[/tex], whereas [tex]\angle {\rm S}[/tex] is opposite to side [tex]{\rm NB}[/tex]. Therefore:

[tex]\begin{aligned} \frac{\text{length of NS}}{\sin(\angle {\rm B})} = \frac{\text{length of NB}}{\sin(\angle {\rm S})} \end{aligned}[/tex].

Substitute in the known measurements:

[tex]\begin{aligned} \frac{75\; \rm mi}{\sin(119^{\circ})} = \frac{\text{length of NB}}{\sin(21^{\circ})} \end{aligned}[/tex].

Rearrange and solve for the length of [tex]\rm NB[/tex]:

[tex]\begin{aligned} & \text{length of NB} \\ =\; & (75\; \rm mi) \times \frac{\sin(21^{\circ})}{\sin(119^{\circ})} \\ \approx\; & 30.73\; \rm mi\end{aligned}[/tex].

(Round to at least one more decimal places than the values in the choices.)

Likewise, with [tex]\angle {\rm N}[/tex] is opposite to side [tex]{\rm SB}[/tex], the following would also hold:

[tex]\begin{aligned} \frac{\text{length of NS}}{\sin(\angle {\rm B})} = \frac{\text{length of SB}}{\sin(\angle {\rm N})} \end{aligned}[/tex].

[tex]\begin{aligned} \frac{75\; \rm mi}{\sin(119^{\circ})} = \frac{\text{length of SB}}{\sin(40^{\circ})} \end{aligned}[/tex].

[tex]\begin{aligned} & \text{length of SB} \\ =\; & (75\; \rm mi) \times \frac{\sin(40^{\circ})}{\sin(119^{\circ})} \\ \approx\; & 55.12\; \rm mi\end{aligned}[/tex].

In other words, the distance between the northern lighthouse and the boat is approximately [tex]30.73\; \rm mi[/tex], whereas the distance between the southern lighthouse and the boat is approximately [tex]55.12\; \rm mi[/tex]. Hence the conclusion.

In an even function of x, all powers of x are even (2, 4, 6, etc.).  

In this case we have f(x) = 7, or 7x^0, which is an even function because the power (0) of x is even.

Answers

Answer:

Multiple answers.

Step-by-step explanation:

State A and State B together have 94 counties. State A has more counties than state B. So there can be multiple answers. Let us assume that you mean the two numbers are as close as possible.  A+B=94.  94/2 is 47, so the two numbers as close as possible are 46,48. The lowest you can get is 2 and 92.
