Jackie wants to meet up with her friend who lives 3 miles away and bring him the cookies she baked. she and her friend start moving toward each other at the same time. Jackie's walking speed is 3mph, and her friend's biking speed is 12mph. 4 minutes after Jackie left the house, her mom notices that she forgot the cookies on the kitchen table. She sends Jackie's brother to bring them to Jackie. How fast should Jackie's brother travel to catch up with Jackie before she meets her friend?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

First, find the time when Jackie and her friend meet.

Using:

[tex]\sf s=ut+\dfrac12at^2[/tex]

where:

s = displacementu = initial velocitya = accelerationt = time (in hours)

Jackie and her friend are not accelerating, so a = 0, which means the formula can be reduced to:

[tex]\sf s=ut[/tex]

Create equations

Jackie:  [tex]\sf s_1= 3t[/tex]

Friend:  [tex]\sf s_2 = 12t[/tex]

As the distance covered by Jackie and her friend at the time they meet equals 3 miles:

[tex]\sf s_1+s_2=3 \ miles[/tex]

[tex]\sf \implies 3t + 12t = 3[/tex]

[tex]\sf \implies 15t = 3[/tex]

[tex]\sf \implies t = 0.2 \ hr[/tex]

[tex]\sf \implies t=0.2 \times 60=12 \ mins[/tex]

Therefore, they meet 12 mins after they both start moving.

3 mph = 3 ÷ 60 = 0.05 miles per min

12 mph = 12 ÷ 60 = 0.2 miles per min

Therefore,

Jackie traveled:  0.05 x 12 = 0.6 miles

Her friend traveled: 0.2 x 12 = 2.4 miles

when they meet.

To find the speed Jackie's brother must walk to catch up with her at the same time she meets her friend, use s = 0.6 miles (as this is the distance Jackie walked) and t = 12 - 4 = 8 mins (since he left 4 mins after Jackie left):

[tex]\sf s=ut[/tex]

[tex]\sf \implies u = \dfrac{s}{t}[/tex]

[tex]\implies \sf u = \dfrac{0.6}{8}[/tex]

[tex]\implies \sf u = 0.075 \ miles \ per \ min[/tex]

[tex]\sf \implies u = 0.075 \times 60 = 4.5 \ mph[/tex]

So Jackie's brother needs to walk faster than 4.5 mph to catch up with Jackie before she meets her friend.

(If he walks at 4.5 mph, he will catch up to Jackie at the instant she meets her friend.  If he walks slower than 4.5 mph, he will not catch up with Jackie before she meets her friend).

Please answer question in screen shot

Answers

Answer:

1 (the answer will always be 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's forget about the absolute value signs for a second and just look at what's inside

[tex]\frac{x+y}{-x-y}[/tex]

This can be rewritten as

[tex]-\frac{x+y}{x+y}[/tex]

When you have the same numerator and denominator, it will always come out to 1, so we can just say that this is saying

[tex]-\frac{x+y}{x+y} = -1[/tex]

Now, back to the absolute value signs

This comes out to negative 1, but the absolute value signs means to always change the negative to a positive (but if it's a positive, it stays positive!)

So that means:

[tex]|-1| = 1[/tex]

and 1 is your answer

Answers

1. x=-1 or x=15
2. no sol

Answer:

1. [tex]x=-1; x=15[/tex]
2. Impossible

Step-by-step explanation:

About #1.

There are two ways of reasoning.

Algebrically, you split the absolute value in two based on the sign of the quantity [tex]x-7[/tex]

[tex]x-7 = 8; x\ge7\\x=15\\x-7=-8; x < 7\\x=-1[/tex]

Geometrically, and it's a personal preference of mine, you're asking to find the numbers that are 8 units away from 7. One is to the right (15), and the other is to the left (-1).

#2 is impossible. The modulus of a number is by definition non negative, so it can never be equal to a negative number.

Find the x- and y-intercepts of y=−x/2−1.

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

y = -x/2 - 1

the y-intercept is right there : -1.

it is the y-value when x = 0

the point of y-intercept is therefore (0, -1).

the x-intercept is the other way around. it is the x- value when y = 0.

0 = -x/2 - 1

1 = -x/2

-2 = x

the point of x-intercept is therefore (-2, 0)

Answers

Answer:

The point at f(-3) is at (-3,1).

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the y-value of a function at a specific point by using the graph, keep in mind that the x-axis is the axis that lies horizontally on the graph.

So, look along the horizontal line through the center until you find where x = -3. Now find the corresponding y-value to that x-value by looking above or below that point until you find where it intersects the graph. When you find that point, look to see what number the point corresponds with on the y-axis. In this case, it corresponds to y = 1.

Remember that ordered pairs are formatted as (x,y).

what is a quadrialateral?

A quadrilateral is four sided polygon. squares and rectangles are more common examples of a quadrilateral. Each quadrilateral has it's unique features however generally the sum of angles of a quadrilteral is 360

Introducing angle C such that

A + C = 180 (angle on a straight line)

C + 47 + 90 = 180 (sum of angles of a trianlge)

C = 180 - 90 - 47

C = 43

hence

A + 43 = 180

A = 180 - 43

A = 137                  

A + B + 90 + 40 = 360 (sum of angles of a quadrilateral )

3.-Un camión de pasajeros arranca desde el reposo y mantiene una aceleración de 0.8 mis?
a) ¿En qué tiempo recorrerá una distancia de 0.5 km?
b) ¿Qué rapidez levará en ese tiempo en m/s y en km/h?

Answers

a) El tiempo requerido por el camión para recorrer 0.5 kilómetros es aproximadamente 35.355 segundos.

b) La rapidez que llevará el camión en ese tiempo es 28.284 metros por segundo (101.822 kilómetros por hora).

Caso de movimiento uniformemente acelerado

El camión experimenta un movimiento uniformemente acelerado, que ocurre al considerar que su aceleración ([tex]a[/tex]), en metros por segundo al cuadrado, es constante en el tiempo ([tex]t[/tex]), en segundos.

a) El tiempo requerido es determinado por el siguiente polinomio de segundo orden:

[tex]x = v_{o}\cdot t + \frac{1}{2}\cdot a\cdot t^{2}[/tex]   (1)

Donde:

[tex]x[/tex] - Cambio en la posición, en kilómetros. [tex]v_{o}[/tex] - Rapidez inicial, en metros por segundo.

Si sabemos que [tex]x = 500\,m[/tex], [tex]a = 0.8\,\frac{m}{s}[/tex] y [tex]v_{o} = 0\,\frac{m}{s}[/tex], entonces tenemos que el tiempo requerido es:

[tex]0.4\cdot t^{2}-500 = 0[/tex]

[tex]t \approx 35.355\,s[/tex]

El tiempo requerido por el camión para recorrer 0.5 kilómetros es aproximadamente 35.355 segundos. [tex]\blacksquare[/tex]

b) La rapidez final ([tex]v[/tex]), en metros por segundo, se determina con el siguiente polinomio de primer orden:

[tex]v = v_{o} + a\cdot t[/tex]   (2)

Si sabemos que [tex]v_{o} = 0\,\frac{m}{s}[/tex], [tex]a = 0.8\,\frac{m}{s^{2}}[/tex] y [tex]t = 1250\,s[/tex], entonces tenemos que la rapidez final es:

[tex]v = 0 + 0.8\cdot (35.355)[/tex]

[tex]v = 28.284\,\frac{m}{s}[/tex]   [tex]\left(101.822\,\frac{km}{h} \right)[/tex]

75 POINTS IF U GET THIS CORRECT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! James has a collection of 20 miniature cars and trucks. Cars make up 40% of the collection. If James adds only cars to his collection, how many cars must he add to make the collection 75% cars?

Answers

Answer:

28 cars

Explanation:

cars + trucks = 20

Let "n" be the cars added in the collection

cars : 20 * 40% = 8 carstrucks : 20 - 8 = 12 trucks

solve:

[tex]\rightarrow \sf \dfrac{8+n}{20+n} =75\%[/tex]

[tex]\rightarrow \sf {8+n} =(20+n)75\%[/tex]

[tex]\rightarrow \sf {8+n} =15+0.75n[/tex]

[tex]\rightarrow \sf {8-15} =0.75n-n[/tex]

[tex]\rightarrow \sf -7 =0.25n[/tex]

[tex]\rightarrow \sf n = 28[/tex]

Thus, he needs to add 28 cars in the collection to make the collection 75% cars.

Answer:

28 cars

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of cars and trucks = 20

Cars make up 40% of the collection

⇒ Number of cars = 40% of 20

                              = 0.4 x 20

                              = 8 cars

⇒ Number of trucks = total collection - number of cars

                                  = 20 - 8

                                  = 12 trucks

To calculate how many cars must be added to make the collection 75% cars, set up a ratio equation with x being the number of cars to be added:

(Added cars + existing cars) to total collection = 75%

⇒ x + 8 : x + 8 + 12 = 75 : 100

⇒ x + 8 : x + 20 = 75 : 100

[tex]\sf \implies \dfrac{x+8}{x+20}=\dfrac{75}{100}[/tex]

⇒ 100(x + 8) = 75(x + 20)

⇒ 100x + 800 = 75x + 1500

⇒ 100x -75x = 1500 - 800

⇒ 25x = 700

⇒ x = 28

Therefore he would need to add 28 cars to his collection to make his collection 75% cars.

Check

Number of cars = 8 + 28 = 36

Number of trucks = 12

Total collection = 36 + 12 = 48

Number of cars / total collection = 36/48 = 0.75 = 75%
