Round answer to the nearest tenth. . An accident investigator measured the skid marks of one of the vehicles involved in an accident. The length of the skid marks was 175 feet. What was the speed of the vehicle before the brakes were applied?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

v2 - v02 = 2ad

 

v = final speed = 0 (came to a full stop)

v0 = initial speed (what you want to solve for)

d = stopping distance = 175 feet

 

Then

 

v0 = √(-2ad)  [Remember a is negative, so the argument of the square root is positive.]

 

But as you can see, we need the acceleration.

 

If we knew the time it took to come to a full stop, we could still answer the question.  Either way, we need more information than just the stopping distance.

Step-by-step explanation:


Answer 2

The speed of the vehicle before the brake were applied was about 83.7 feet/s

Further explanation

Acceleration is rate of change of velocity.

[tex]\large {\boxed {v^2 = u^2 + 2ad}[/tex]

[tex]\large {\boxed {a = \frac{v - u}{t} } }[/tex]

[tex]\large {\boxed {d = \frac{v + u}{2}~t } }[/tex]

a = acceleration ( m/s² )

v = final velocity ( m/s )

u = initial velocity ( m/s )

t = time taken ( s )

d = distance ( m )

Let us now tackle the problem!

This problem is about accelerated motion.

Given:

final speed of the vehicle = v = 0 feet/s

length of skid marks = d = 175 feet

maximum deceleration = a = 20 feet/s² ( assumption )

Unknown:

initial speed = u = ?

Solution:

[tex]v^2 = u^2 - 2ad[/tex]

[tex]0^2 = u^2 - 2(20)(175)[/tex]

[tex]u^2 = 7000[/tex]

[tex]u = \sqrt{7000}[/tex]

[tex]u = 10\sqrt{70} \texttt{ feet/s}[/tex]

[tex]u \approx 83.7 \texttt{ feet/s} [/tex] (rounded to the nearest tenth)

[tex]\texttt{ }[/tex]

Conclusion:

The speed of the vehicle before the brake were applied was about 83.7 feet/s if we assume that maximum deceleration of the vehicle is about 20 feet/s²

b. x=11, y=-71, z=-5
c. x=-71, y=-5, z=11
d. x=11, y=-5, z=-71

Answers

d. x=11, y=-5,  z= -71

Final answer:

To solve the given system of equations, we use the method of substitution. The solution is x = 11, y = -5, z = -71.

Explanation:

To find the solution of the given system, we can use the method of substitution.

From the first equation, we have x = -3y - 4. Substituting this value for x in the second equation, we get -3y = 2(-3y - 4) - 7.

Solving this equation, we find y = -5. Substituting this value of y back into the first equation, we can solve for x. Plugging in y = -5, we get x = 11. Substituting these values for x and y in the third equation, we can find z. Plugging in x = 11 and y = -5, we get z = -71.

Therefore, the solution to the system is x = 11, y = -5, and z = -71.

identify an equation in point-slope form for the line parallel to y=5x+2 that passes through (-6,-1)

Answers

Answer:

y = 5x + 29

Step-by-step explanation:

y=5x+2

Given equation is in the form of y=mx+b

Where m is the slope = 5

and b is the y intercept = 2

When the lines are parallel then their slopes are equal

So the slope of parallel line is also 5 (m=5)

Given that the line passes through (-6,-1)

We use point slope formula

y-y1= m (x-x1)

m=5, x1= -6, y1=-1

Plug in all the values

y - (-1) = 5(x-(-6))

y + 1= 5 (x+6)

y + 1= 5x + 30

Subtract 1 on both sides

y = 5x + 29

- (2x - c ) = a ( distribute left side )

- 2x + c = a ( subtract c from both sides )

- 2x = a - c ( multiply both sides by - 1 )

Answer:

1.A =113.04  cm^2

2.A =616  in^2

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the area of a circle we use the formula

A = pi * r^2  if we know the radius or

A = pi * (d^2/4) if we know the diameter


In problem 1 we know the radius

A = pi * r^2

A = pi * (6)^2

A = 36*pi

Using 3.14 for pi

A = 36* 3.14

A =113.04  cm^2


In problem 2 we know the diameter

A = pi * d^2/4

A = pi * (28)^2/4

A = pi 784/4

A = 196

Using 22/7 for pi

A = 196*22/7

A =616  in^2

Answer:

1. Area of the circle with 6 cm radius is [tex] 113.14 cm^2[/tex].

2. Area of the circle with 28 cm diameter is [tex] 616 cm^2[/tex].

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Radius of the circle ,r=  6 cm

Area of the circle , A= [tex]\pi r^2[/tex]

[tex]A=\pi (6 cm)^2=\frac{22}{7}\times 6 cm\times 6 cm=113.14 cm^2[/tex]

Area of the circle with 6 cm radius is [tex] 113.04 cm^2[/tex].

2. Diameter of the circle = d = 28 cm

Radius of the circle , r = [tex]\frac{28 cm}{2=14 cm[/tex]

Area of the circle , A= [tex]\pi r^2[/tex]

[tex]A=\pi (14 cm)^2=\frac{22}{7}\times 14 cm\times 14 cm=616cm^2[/tex]

Katherine is considering two new cell phone plans she doesn’t want to spend more for minutes she won’t use one plan allows up to 250 minutes per month for $49 and the other plan allows up to 350 minutes per month for $65 in the last six months she used 1470 minutes use estimating an exact answer to you to determine the best cell phone plan for Katherine

Answers

Answer: The plan with 250 minutes is best because she Maximus uses only 245 minutes per month so just 5 min to spare. Also i used mental math


Step-by-step explanation:

1470 divided by 6 equals= 245 minutes exactly unless Katherine had rounded her answer



Final answer:

To determine the best cell phone plan for Katherine, compare the cost per minute for each plan. The second plan, which allows up to 350 minutes per month for $65, has a lower cost per minute.

Explanation:

To determine the best cell phone plan for Katherine, we need to compare the cost per minute for each plan.

For the first plan, Katherine gets 250 minutes for $49, which means the cost per minute is $49/250 = $0.196 per minute.

For the second plan, Katherine gets 350 minutes for $65, which means the cost per minute is $65/350 = $0.1857 per minute.

Since the cost per minute is lower for the second plan, Katherine should choose the plan that allows up to 350 minutes per month for $65.

a laptop computer is purchased for $950. after each year the resale decreases by 30%. what will the resale value be after 5 years?

Answers

Answer: 153


I think the answer is 153 because you have to do 950-30 and then divide it by 30 after you do that you multiply it by 5 and get 153.000000...

So you round it to the nearest whole number and that's 153


The resale value of a laptop after 5 years with a 30% decrease in value each year, follows the step-by-step calculation provided.

The resale value of a laptop after each year decreases by 30%. To calculate the resale value after 5 years, we need to consider the decreasing value each year:

After 1 year: $950 - $950 x 30% = $665

After 2 years: $665 - $665 x 30% = $465.50

After 3 years: $465.50 - $465.50 x 30% = $325.85

After 4 years: $325.85 - $325.85 x 30% = $228.10

After 5 years: $228.10 - $228.10 x 30% = $159.67

If the temperature is increased by 25%,

Then the final temperature = x° + 25% of x°

                                             = [tex]x+0.25x[/tex]

                                             = [tex]1.25x^\circ[/tex]

Followed by the decrease in temperature by 40%,

Then final temperature = 1.25x° - 40% of (1.25x°)

                                       = 1.25x° - 0.5x°

                                       = 0.75x°

Therefore, percentage decrease in temperature from initial temperature x°,

Percentage decrease = [tex]\frac{x^\circ-0.75x^\circ}{x^\circ}\times 100[/tex]

                                    = 25%

    Temperature will finally decrease by 25% when increased initially by 25% then decreased by 40%.

t = k/n             Divide both sides by n

t/n = k

If we have two different numbers of workers, then

t₁/n₁ = t₂/n₂     Multiply each side by n₂

t₂ = t₁ × n₁/n₂

t₂ = 22 × 1/4

Ryan bought a guitar for $475.45. If he makes $9.25 per hour at his job, how many hours did he have to work to pay for the guitar? Explain how to find the answer and check it.

Answers

Answer: 51.4 hours


Step-by-step explanation: To figure out the answer to this equation you would divide the cost by how much you make, 475.45÷9.25=51.4


Ryan would need to work approximately 51.51 hours to earn enough money to pay for the guitar.

To find the number of hours Ryan had to work to pay for the guitar, we need to divide the cost of the guitar by his hourly wage.

Divide $475.45 (cost of the guitar) by $9.25 (Ryan's hourly wage):

$475.45 / $9.25

≈ 51.51

This calculation shows that Ryan would need to work approximately 51.51 hours to earn enough money to pay for the guitar.

To check the answer, multiply the number of hours (51.51) by Ryan's hourly wage ($9.25):

51.51 x $9.25 ≈ $476.33

The result is close to the cost of the guitar ($475.45), allowing for small discrepancies due to rounding or decimal approximations. Therefore, this confirms that Ryan would indeed need to work around 51.51 hours to cover the cost of the guitar.
