Part IV: Last year's winner (9 points) Your sponsor will need to know how your average speeds compare to the speeds of past winners. In Part IV, you'll find out how to calculate boat speeds in knots (nautical miles per hour).
1. What was the winning time of last year's race for your city and boat? (2 points, one for each leg)
2. Do you know how fast last year's winner was traveling? (2 points)
3. What information do you need to know to calculate last year's winning speed? Remember, the distance traveled (length of the course) is equal to the rate (boat's speed) times the time. (2 points) A nautical mile is 6076 feet. A speed of one nautical mile per hour is a knot. In the next two questions, you will convert a speed in feet per minute to knots.
4. If you travel 1000 feet in 5 minutes, what is your speed in feet per minute? (1 point)
5. What is your speed in knots? Hint: Use the number of minutes in an hour to convert the speed to feet per hour. Then use the number of feet in a nautical mile to convert feet per hour to knots. (2 points: 1 point for finding the speed in feet/hr. 1 point for converting to knots)​

Part IV: Last Year's Winner (9 Points) Your Sponsor Will Need To Know How Your Average Speeds Compare

Answers

Answer 1

Using the information given in the table, and the speed - time relationship, the solutions to the exercises goes thus :

Using the information given in the table :

1.) The winning time for last year's race will be the lowest time on the table. Using the winning time column, the winning time for each city is :

Sydney = 14.75 minutes

San Francisco = 16.25 minutes

Mykonos = 25.5 minutes

2.)

The winning time of past winners cannot be determined as the exact distances of each city isn't given.

3.)

The information required to calculate speed is distance and time ;

Speed = (distance / time)

4.)

Distance = 1000 feets

Time = 5 minutes

Distance = 1000/5 = 200 ft/min

5.)

Speed in Knots ;

Speed in feets per hour

60 minutes = 1 hour

200 ft/ min × 60/1 hour = 12000 feets per hour

Speed in nautical mile per hour

1 nautical mile = 6076 feets

(12000 ft/hr) × (1/6076)feets = 1.975 nautical miles per hour

Therefore, speed in knots is 1.975 knots.

The first side of a triangle is 4m shorter than the second side. The third side 3 times as long as the first side. The perimeter is 24m. Find the length of each side

Answers

Answer:

1st side= 4m

2nd side= 8m

3rd side= 12m

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the first, second and third side of the triangle be a, b and c meters respectively.

a= b -4 -----(1)

c= 3a -----(2)

Perimeter of triangle

= a +b +c

= 24

a +b +c= 24 -----(3)

From (1): b= a +4 -----(4)

Subst. (2) and (4) into (3):

a +(a +4) +3a= 24

3a +a +a +4= 24

5a +4= 24

5a= 24 -4

5a= 20

Divide both sides by 5:

a= 20 ÷5

a= 4

Substitute a= 4 into (4):

b= 4 +4

b= 8

Substitute a= 4 into (2):

c= 3(4)

c= 12

Thus, the lengths of the first, second, and third side of the triangle are 4m, 8m and 12m respectively.

Answers

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

y - 2x - 8 = 0 ( add 2x + 8 to both sides )

y = 2x + 8 → (1)

y² + 8x = 0 → (2)

Substitute y = 2x + 8 into (2)

(2x + 8)² + 8x = 0 ← expand left side using FOIL and simplify

4x² + 32x + 64 + 8x = 0

4x² + 40x + 64 = 0 ( divide through by 4 )

x² + 10x + 16 = 0 ← in standard form

(x + 8)(x + 2) = 0 ← in factored form

x + 8 = 0 ⇒ x = - 8

x + 2 = 0 ⇒ x = - 2

Substitute these values into (1) for corresponding values of y

x = - 8 : y = 2(- 8) + 8 = - 16 + 8 = - 8 ⇒ P (- 8, - 8)

x = - 2 : y = 2(- 2) + 8 = - 4 + 8 = 4 ⇒ Q (- 2, 4 )

Calculate the length of PQ using the distance formula

PQ = [tex]\sqrt{(x_{2}-x_{1})^2+(y_{2}-y_{1})^2 }[/tex]

with (x₁, y₁ ) = P (- 8, - 8) and (x₂, y₂ ) = Q (- 2, 4 )

PQ = [tex]\sqrt{(-2-(-8))^2+(4-(-8))^2}[/tex]

      = [tex]\sqrt{(-2+8)^2+(4+8)^2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

f(x) = 2x + 1

and

g(x) = x - 3

Find the composite function f(g(x)), substitute g(x) with its value:

f(g(x)) = f(x - 3) = 2(x - 3) + 1 = 2x - 6 + 1 = 2x - 5

Answer:

It is given

4x+3y=24

We can also write it as

3y=24−4x

 y=324−4x

Substituting x=0 in the given equation

 y=324−4(0)

 So we get 

 y=324

 By division 

 y=8 

 Substituting x=3 in the given equation 

 y=324−4(3)

 So we get

 y=312

is parallelogram a kite?

Answers

Answer:

Kites are a special type of quadrilateral with two distinct pairs of consecutive sides the same length. ... Similarly, every kite is not a parallelogram, because the opposite sides of a kite are not necessarily parallel.

Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

All parallelograms are not a kite.

A kite is a quadrilateral with two disjoint pairs ( no side is in both pairs ) of equal-length, adjacent ( sharing a vertex ) sides. A parallelogram also has two pairs of equal-length sides, however they must be opposite, as opposed to adjacent.

The base of the new enclosure is 48 inches long. What is the perimeter of the new base?​

Answers

Answer:

144in

Step-by-step explanation:

METHOD 1:

18 - 36

x - 48

36x = 18 * 48

36x = 864

x = 24

ALTERNATIVE METHOD:

18:36 (breadth:length)

1:2

When the length is 48in, the breadth is half the length, hence, the breadth is 24in.

Final Solution:

So, when the base is 48in, the width is 24in.

Since we have the two values

P = 2(l+b)

= 2(48+24)

= 2 * 72

= 144in

If you deposit $8000 into an account paying 7% annual interest compounded quarterly, how long until there is $12400 in the account?

The formula for deducing Compounded Annual Growth rate, CAGR = {( EV / SV)^1 / n} - 1

where:

EV = Investment's ending value

SV = Investment's starting value

n = Number of investment periods (months, years, etc.)

If you rearrange the formula for deducing the time period required.

SV = $8000

EV= $12400

Total appreciation = (EV-SV)*100%/SV = 64.52%.

At CAGR of 7%, the time required for any value to appreciate 64.52% is 6 years and 6 months

Answer:

[tex]\frac{4}{9}[/tex]

[tex]-\frac{9}{4}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

First, solve the equation for y to find the slope of the original line. When you solve for y you get [tex]y=-\frac{9}{4}x+2[/tex]. Since the coefficient of x in slope-intercept form is the slope, -9/4 is the slope of this line.

Perpendicular lines have the opposite slope, so if the slope is a/b then the perpendicular slope is -b/a. Since the slope is -9/4, the perpendicular slope is 4/9.

Parallel lines have the same slope. So, the slope is the exact same, -9/4.
