A father and his son walked 240 meters. During this trip, the father made 100 fewer steps than did his son. Find the distance each one of them covers with one step, if the father’s step is 20 cm greater than his son’s step.

Answers

Answer 1
Hello!

The answer is:

The father's step is 80 cm

The son's step is 60 cm.

Why?

To solve the problem, we need to write equations in order to create a relation between the father's and son's steps, and the distance covered by them.

We know thay they covered 240 meters, and the father's step is 20 cm  (0.2m)greater than his son's step, so, we can write the following relation:

[tex]NumberOfSteps_{Son}=\frac{240m}{x}[/tex]

and,

[tex]NumberOfSteps_{Father}=\frac{240m}{x+0.2m}[/tex]

Now, if the know that the father made 100 fewer steps than his son, we have:

[tex]NumberOfSteps_{Son}-100=\frac{240m}{x+0.2m}[/tex]

Then, substituting the first equation into the second equation, we have:

[tex]\frac{240m}{x}-\frac{240m}{x+0.2m}=100\\\\\frac{240m(x+0.2m)-240mx}{x(x+0.2m)}=100\\\\240mx+0.2m*240m-240mx=(x)(x+0.2m)*100\\\\48m^{2}=100*(x^{2}+0.2mx)=100x^{2} +20mx\\\\48m^{2}=100x^{2}+20mx\\\\100x^{2}+20mx-48m^{2}[/tex]

We have a quadratic equation:

[tex]100x^{2}+20mx-48m^{2}=0[/tex]

Where,

[tex]a=100\\b=20\\c=-48[/tex]

So, solving it applying the quadratic formula, we have:

[tex]\frac{-b+-\sqrt{b^{2} -4ac} }{2a}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{-20+-\sqrt{20^{2} -4*100*-48} }{2*100}=\frac{-20+-\sqrt{400+19200} }{200}\\\\\frac{-20+-\sqrt{400+19200} }{200}=\frac{-20+-\sqrt{19600} }{200}\\\\\frac{-20+-\sqrt{19600} }{200}=\frac{-20+-(140)}{200}\\\\x_{1}=\frac{-20+140}{200}=0.6\\\\x_{2}=\frac{-20-140}{200}=-0.8[/tex]

Then, since distance cannot be negative, we need to take the positive value, so, the son's step is 0.6m or 60 cm.

Now, calculating the father's step, we have:

[tex]FatherStep=SonStep+20cm\\\\FatherStep=60cm+20cm=80cm[/tex]

Hence, we have that the father's step is 80 cm.

Have a nice day!

Answer 2

The distance of the father and son will be 80cm and 60cm respectively.

How to calculate the distance?

The number of son's step will be:

= 240/x

The number or father's step will be:

= 240/x + 0.2

Solving further, we'll have 100x² - 20mx - 48m² and using quadratic formula, this will be x1 = 0.6 and x2 = -0.8.

The son's step will be:

= 0.6 × 100 = 60cm

The father's step will be:

= 60cm + 20cm = 80cm

15/17. The value (ratio) of cos A is 15/17.

The trigonometric ratios of an acute angle are, basically, the sine, the cosine and the tangent. They are defined from an acute angle, α, of a right triangle, whose elements are the hypotenuse, the leg contiguous to the angle,  and the leg opposite the angle.

-The sine of the angle is the opposite leg divided by the hypotenuse.

-The cosine of the angle is the adjacent leg divided by the hypotenuse.

-The tangent of the angle is the opposite leg divided by the adjacent leg or, which is the same, the sine of the angle divided by the cosine of the angle.

cos A = adjacent leg/hypothenuse = BC/AC = 15/17

What is the equation of the line that is perpendicular to the given line and passes through the point (2, 6)?

x = 2
x = 6
y = 2
y = 6

Answers

Answer:

Either x = 2 or y = 6, depending on the original line

Step-by-step explanation:

So, if the original line is horizontal, our new line is vertical, and all vertical lines in a graph is x = some number. To pass through the point (2, 6), x has to equal 2, since the point's x-coordinate is 2.

On the other hand, if the original line is vertical, our new line is horizontal, which is y = some number. Our point's y-coordinate is 6, so our line should be that y = 6.

It's A, x=2. I hope i helped!!

D. [tex]y=(x+8)^2[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

Option C. [tex]y = (x-8) ^ 2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

If we have a parent function f(x) and we want to make a transformation that translates the graph of f(x) horizontally then we do

[tex]y = f (x + h)[/tex]

Where h is a constant such that:

If [tex]h> 0[/tex] then the graph of f(x) moves h units to the left

If [tex]h <0[/tex] then the graph of f(x) moves h units to the right.

In this case we have the function [tex]y = x ^ 2[/tex] and we know that 8 units are moved to the right. If you move 8 units to the right This means that

[tex]h <0[/tex] and [tex]h = -8[/tex]

So if [tex]f(x) = x ^ 2[/tex] the transformed function will be:

[tex]y = f(x -8)[/tex]

It took Fran 2.7 hours to drive to her mother's house on Monday morning. On her return trip on Tuesday night, traffic was heavier, so the trip took her 3 hours. Her average speed on Tuesday was 6 mph slower than on Monday. What was her average speed on Tuesday.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up a table for a distance = rate × time problem.  We are considering the trips taken on Monday and Tuesday.

                         d     =     r     ×     t

Monday

Tuesday

Now let's start filling in what we know.  First off, Fran went to her Mother's both days.  Unless her Mother moved overnight from Monday to Tuesday, the distance from Fran to her mom is the same both days, even though we don't know how far it is.  So we will just call that "d".

                           d     =     r     ×     t

Monday               d     =

Tuesday              d     =

Now we are told about the times it took to get there on both days.  Monday took 2.7 hours and Tuesday took 3 hours.  Filling in that:

                            d     =     r     ×     t

Monday                d     =           ×     2.7

Tuesday               d     =           ×     3

We're getting there.  Now let's look at rates.  Again, we don't know her rate (that's what we are solving for!) but we do know that she drove faster on Monday than Tuesday.  Tuesday she was 6 miles per hour slower than Monday.  Since we don't know Monday's rate, we will call it r.  Since we don't know Tuesday's rate, but only that it is 6 mph slower than Monday, we will call it r - 6

                            d     =     r     ×     t

Monday               d     =     r      ×     2.7

Tuesday               d     =    r-6   ×     3

Now we have our equations.  We know that d = rt.  Since the distances are the same, d = d, by the transitive property of equality, we can set the 2 expressions equal to each other:

2.7r = 3(r - 6) and solve for r:

2.7r = 3r - 18

-.3r = -18

r = 60

If r = 60, then that r value goes in for Monday.  That means that Tuesday is 60 - 6 which is 54

What was her average speed on Tuesday is 54 mph

Monday

Time = 2.7 hours

Date = r mph

Distance = 4.5r miles

Tuesday

Time = 3 hours

rate = r-6 mph

Distance = 3(r-6) miles

Hence:

Distance = distance

2.7r=3(r-6)

2.7r = 3r - 18

0.3r = 18

r =18/0.3

r 60 mph ( Monday rate)

r-6=60-3  (Tuesday rate)

r-6 = 54 mph (Tuesday rate)

Inconclusion  What was her average speed on Tuesday is 54 mph.

What is the product to sum Identities?

The product-to-sum formulae are used to represent the sum of the sine and cosine functions. These are generated from trigonometry's sum and difference formulae.

sin A cos B = (1/2) [ sin (A + B) + sin (A - B) ]

The trigonometry expression is given in the question

sin (5θ) cos (2θ)

According to  the product to sum Identities

sin A cos B = (1/2) [ sin (A + B) + sin (A - B) ]

Here A = 5θ and B = 2θ

sin (5θ) cos (2θ) = (1/2) [sin(5θ + 2θ) + sin(5θ - 2θ)]

sin (5θ) cos (2θ) = (1/2) [sin(7θ) + sin(3θ)]

sin (5θ) cos (2θ) =  [sin(7θ) + sin(3θ)] / 2

Thus, the required value of trigonometry expression is the product as a sum [sin(7θ) + sin(3θ)] / 2.

The square root of an integer is rational only if that integer is a square number. The closest squares to 8 are 2^2 = 4 and 3^2 = 9. 8 is not a square number, so has an irrational square root.

Final answer:

The square root of 8 is an irrational number.

Explanation:

A square root is a mathematical operation that, when applied to a number, finds a value that, when multiplied by itself, equals the original number. For example, the square root of 25 is 5 because 5 x 5 = 25. It is denoted by the √ symbol. Whether the square root of 8 is a rational number or not can be determined by finding the square root and checking if it can be expressed as a fraction.

The square root of 8 is approximately 2.828, which is an irrational number because it cannot be expressed as a fraction. To further prove that it is irrational, we can use the prime factorization method and show that 8 does not have a perfect square factor.

find the vertex : f(x)=3x^2-18x+10

Answers

f(x)=3x^2-18x+10

a = 3, b = -18 and c = 10

The vertex of a parabola is in form a(x+d)^2 + e

d = b/2a = -18/2(3) = -18/6 = -3

e = c-b^2/4a = 10 - -18^2/4(3) = 10-27 = -17

Now the vertex form of the parabola becomes 3(x-3)^2 -17

Use the vertex form of the parabola in the vertex form of y = a(x-h)^2 +k

Where a = 3, h = -3 and k = -17

Now you have y = 3(x-(-3))^2 +(-17)

Simplify: y = 3(x+3)^2 -17

Vanessa has two bags that contain slips of paper. One bag has 4 slips of paper that are numbered 2, 3, 4, and 5. The other bag has 4 slips of paper that are numbered 3, 4, 5, and 6.

Vanessa chooses one slip of paper from each bag without looking.

The random variable X is the product of the numbers on the slips of paper.

What is P(12 ≤ X ≤ 15)?



Enter your answer, in simplest fraction form, in the box.

Answers

Answer:

5/16

Step-by-step explanation:

If Vanessa pulls out a 2 from the first bag, then the possibilities based on the second bag are:

X = 2*3 = 6

X = 2*4 = 8

X = 2*5 = 10

X = 2*6 = 12

Repeat this for the other values from the first bag.  If she pulls a 3, the possibilities are:

X = 3*3 = 9

X = 3*4 = 12

X = 3*5 = 15

X = 3*6 = 18

If she pulls a 4:

X = 4*3 = 12

X = 4*4 = 16

X = 4*5 = 20

X = 4*6 = 24

And finally, if she pulls a 5:

X = 5*3 = 15

X = 5*4 = 20

X = 5*5 = 25

X = 5*6 = 30

Of the 16 total combinations, 5 are greater than or equal to 12 and less than or equal to 15.

Therefore, P(12 ≤ X ≤ 15) = 5/16.

Given: △ACM, m∠C=90°, CP⊥ AM. AP=9 cm, PM=16 cm.

Explain how to get these answers: AC = 15, CM = 20, CP = 12

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

Since m∠ACM = 90°, then by angle addition, m∠ACP + m∠PCM = 90°.Since CP⊥ AM, then by definition of perpendicular, m∠APC = 90°.  Since angles of a triangle add up to 180°, that means m∠PAC + m∠ACP = 90°.By substitution, m∠PCM = m∠PAC.Since m∠PCM + m∠CMP = 90°, then by substitution, m∠CMP = m∠PAC.Therefore, by AAA, △ACP and △CMP are similar.

Having proven that the triangles are similar, we can write the proportion:

AP / CP = CP / MP

9 / CP = CP / 16

CP² = 144

CP = 12

Now, we can simply use Pythagorean theorem to find the other sides.

AC² = AP² + CP²

AC² = 9² + 12²

AC = 15

CM² = CP² + PM²

CM² = 12² + 16²

CM = 20

(1) King Midas wanted to be the richest king in the world, and one day, he had the chance to make it happen. His servants had captured a satyr, a half-man and half-goat creature. The satyr happened to be good friends with a very powerful god named Dionysus.(2) Midas thought that Dionysus just might give him a reward for finding the satyr, so he asked the satyr to stay at the palace where he would be treated as a guest. The satyr was given a nice room with fine linens and any food he desired. The satyr was quite happy about all this. (3) Soon, Dionysus arrived at the palace, as he had been searching for the satyr. Midas took Dionysus to see the satyr, who told the god about all the rich foods and fine things the king had given him. Dionysus was grateful to Midas for treating his friend so well, and he offered to grant Midas one wish. (4) "I wish that everything I touch would turn to gold!" Midas exclaimed without thinking. He couldn't believe his luck! Now he would definitely become the world's richest king. Dionysus asked if he was sure, and because Midas said he was sure, Dionysus granted the wish. (5) For the next few hours, Midas was in heaven. He touched flowers, and they became gold. He touched his bed, and it became gold. He touched his castle, and it became gold. Then, because he was thirsty, Midas tried to drink some water, but it dried as it touched his lips and also became gold. He tried to eat an orange, but it too turned into the precious metal. Finally, his daughter ran to give him a hug, and she too became gold! Midas realized that his wish had become a curse. (6) Midas begged Dionysus to take back his wish. Dionysus saw how sorry Midas was and took pity on him. He sent Midas to bathe in the River Pactolus. The waters cleansed him and released him from the golden touch. Midas realized then that riches are not the most important things in the world.1What is the main idea of the entire story? A. King Midas learns that riches are not the most important things in the world. B. King Midas gets his wish and becomes the richest king in the world. C. Dionysus will grant you a wish if you are kind to his friend. D. King Midas enjoys turning many different things into gold.
