Driver A and B have two different routes. Driver A's route is 80km, and driver B's route is 100km. Driver B travels 10km/h faster than driver A and finishes 10 minutes earlier. What are the speeds of each driver?

Answers

Answer 1

Speed of Driver A is 30 km/h.

Speed of Driver B is 40 km/h

Define speed.

The speed at which an object's location changes in any direction. The distance travelled in relation to the time it took to travel that distance is how speed is defined. Since speed simply has a direction and no magnitude, it is a scalar quantity.

Given Data

Driver A and B have two different routes. Driver A's route is 80km, and driver B's route is 100km. Driver B travels 10km/h faster than driver A and finishes 10 minutes earlier.

Distance = Speed (Time)

Distance for Driver A: 80 kilometers

Consider Driver A's speed to be A km/h.

Driver A's time was [tex]\frac{80}{A}[/tex] hours.

Distance for Driver B is 100 kilometers

Speed of Driver B: A + 10 km/h

Driver B's time was equal to 100/(A + 10) hours.

Arrived 10 minutes early, or [tex]\frac{10}{60}[/tex], or [tex]\frac{1}{6}[/tex]hour.

100/(A + 10) = [tex]\frac{80}{A}[/tex] - [tex]\frac{1}{6}[/tex]

600A = 480(A + 10) - A(A + 10)

600A = 480A + 4800 - A² - 10A

A² +130A - 4800 = 0

A² + 160A - 30A - 4800 = 0

A(A + 160) - 30(A + 160) = 0

(A - 30)(A + 160) = 0

A = 30 since speed cannot be negative.

Speed of Driver A is 30 km/h.

Speed of Driver B: 40 km/h

What is a ratio?

A ratio in mathematics illustrates how many times one number contains another. For example, if a dish of fruit contains seven apples and six lemons, the apple-to-lemon ratio is seven to six. Similarly, the proportion of lemons to oranges is 6:7, while the proportion of oranges to overall fruit is 8:14. (or 4:7). A ratio can be defined by providing both constituent integers, which are written as "a to b" or "a:b," or by providing only the value of their quotient a/b. Equal quotients result in equal ratios. A and B are frequently referred to as ratio words, with A being the antecedent and B being the consequent.

question 2 (10 points)

Answers

Answer:

The answer is 476, so the third option is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Recall the Order Of Operations

The order of operations tells us in which order we have to solve expressions, if there are different operations.

The order is (from first solved to lastly solved) Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication, Division, Addition and Subtraction.

Step 2: Calculate the expression

As we can see, there are parentheses present, so we will solve the expression in them first:

[tex](6+4)\\=(10)[/tex]

The expression becomes:

[tex]10\cdot 49 -7\cdot 2[/tex]

Multiplication should occur first before the subtraction, so let's multiply the numbers:

[tex]10\cdot49-7\cdot2\\\\\text{Multiply the first expression:}\\=490-7\cdot 2\\\\\text{Multiply the second expression:}\\=490-14[/tex]

Now, you can subtract the numbers:

How much do you owe at the end of four weeks

Answers

Given:

If you borrow $100, you will have an interest of $10.

Asked: How much do you owe at the end of four weeks?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we need to find the rate, r.

According to the given, we can get the rate by:

$100 x rate = $10

rate = $10/$100

rate = 0.10

Now, if you borrow $1100, you will pay at the end of four weeks the amount of:

$1100 x 0.10 = $110

Total amount = $1100 + $110 = $1210

Which is the better buy? 2-cup carton of milk for $0.56 2-quart carton of milk for $3.76

Answers

Given:

2-cup carton of milk = $0.56

2-quart carton of milk for $3.76​

To find which of them is a better buy, let's calculate the price of each cup for both.

i) 2-cup carton of milk = $0.56

1 cup =

[tex]\frac{0.56}{2}\text{ = }0.28[/tex]

Here, 1 cup carton of milk is $0.28

ii) 2-quart carton of milk = $3.76​

Given that 1 quart = 4 cups

2 quart = 4 * 2 = 8 cups

Thus

1 cup =

[tex]\frac{3.76}{8}\text{ = }0.47[/tex]

Here, a cup carton of milk is $0.47

$0.28 is less than $0.47, therefore the better buy would be 2-cup carton of milk for $0.56.

Therefore, the best buy would be 2-cup carton of milk for $0.56, because it is cheaper.

How to get the cost of the candy?

We know that a store owner mixes 2 Ib of candy that costs x dollars per pound with 3 Ib of candy that costs $1.50 per pound. She sells the mix for $2.50

The total amount of the mix is:

2lb + 3lb = 5lb, now, the total cost at the beginning must be the same as the final cost, so we can write the equation:

2*x + 3*$1.50 = 5*$2.50

Now we can solve this linear equation for x:

2*x = 5*$2.50 - 3*$1.50 = $8.00

x = $8.00/2 = $4.00

Answers

The correct answer is The complete price (minus returns) is due within 30 days, or a 2 percent discount for payments made within 10 days.

2. Net Sales are Going Up.

Explanation:

1. The breakdown of a company's sales discounts with terms 2/10, n/30 is as follows:

The % discount is represented by 2,

You must pay the business within 10 days to be eligible for the discount.

If you were unable to pay the corporation within the first 10 days, you would have had n/30 days to do so. You are not eligible for the discount if you pay during this time frame after the first 10 days.

Consequently, the parameters of the sales discount mentioned above are a 2 percent discount for payment within 10 days, or the full amount (less returns) due within 30 days.

2. As goods are returned and risk must be managed, sales returns and sales allowances have the impact of lowering the net sales total. Therefore, if they decrease, net sales increase.

A decrease in the credit card company's discount also causes a rise in sales because it increases the amount made per sale or transaction and decreases the amount the company must provide in discounts.

Answers

The point slope equation of the line that passes through the points (-9,6) and (-7,-8) is  7x + y = -57 .

The point slope equation of the line passing through the points (x₁,y₁) having slope as m is given by the formula .

y-y₁ = m(x-x₁)

In the question ,

it is given that

the required line passes through the points (-9,6) and (-7,-8) ,

So , the slope(m) is = (-8-6)/(-7 -(-9))

= -14/(-7+9)

= -14/2

= -7

the equation of the line passing through (-7,-8) and slope as 7 in the point slope form is

(y -(-8)) = -7(x -(-7))

y + 8 = -7x -49

7x + y = -8-49

7x + y = -57

Therefore , The point slope equation of the line that passes through the points (-9,6) and (-7,-8) is 7x + y = -57  .

The given question is incomplete , the complete question is

Write the point slope equation of the line that passes through the points (-9,6) and (-7,-8) .

Not sure how to find the area of this shape. Please help asap

Answers

Answer:

6.75m^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The shape is made up of a trapezoid on top and a rectangle on the bottom.

The rectangle's area is easier, so first:

Area_rectangle

= length × width

= 2.5 × .5

= 1.25 m^2

For area of a trapezoid, you need three measures: both bases and the height.

One base is 3m. The other base is the top side of the rectangle, so it is 2.5m.

The height is

2.5 - .5

because the height of the trapezoid is not including the rectangle, so take away .5

Trapezoid's height is 2.5 - .5 is 2.

Area_trapezoid

= 1/2 (base+base)height

= 1/2 (3+2.5)2

=5.5

Area_total

= Trapezoid+rectangle

= 5.5 + 1.25

=6.75m^2

The total area is 6.75square meters.

Answer:

Area = 6.75 meter square.

Find the coordinates of the point P along the directed line segment AB so that AP to PB is the given ratio. A(-2, -4), B(6, 1); 3 to 2

Answers

In order for the ratio of AP to PB to be 3/2, the coordinates of point P along the directed line segment AB are (14/5, -1).

What exactly is a section formula?

The section formula returns the coordinates of a point that divides the line connecting two points in a ratio, either internally or externally.

Section formula is given as follows:

[tex](\frac{mx_{2 }+nx_{1} }{m+n} , \frac{my_{2} +ny_{1} }{m+n})[/tex]

In math, how do you find coordinates?Start at the point and trace a vertical line up or down to the x-axis. There you have your x-coordinate. Then repeat the process, but this time follow a horizontal line to find the y-coordinate.

It is given that the coordinates of the points A and B are A(-2, -4), B(6, 1) and   AP/PB = 3/2

Let the coordinates of the point P be (a, b).

By using section formula,

(a, b) = [tex](\frac{mx_{2 }+nx_{1} }{m+n} , \frac{my_{2} +ny_{1} }{m+n})[/tex]

(a, b) =  [tex](\frac{3(6)+2(-2)}{3+2} , \frac{3(1) +2(-4)}{3+2} )[/tex]

(a, b) = [tex](\frac{18 - 4}{5} , \frac{3-8}{5})[/tex]

(a, b) = [tex](14/5, -5/5)[/tex]

(a, b) = [tex](14/5, -1)[/tex]

Therefore, the coordinates of the point P along the directed line segment AB so that the ratio of AP to PB is 3/2 are (14/5, -1).
