A train traveled at a constant speed
for six hours and traveled a distance of
408 miles. What is the best estimate
of the number of miles the train could
travel in 2.5 hours?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

170

Step-by-step explanation:

you have to set up a proportion and cross multiply.

[tex] \frac{408 \: miles}{6 \: hours} = \frac{x \: miles}{2.5 \: hours} [/tex]

that would cross multiply to

[tex]408 \: miles \: \times 2.5 \: hours \: = 6 \: hours \: \times x \: miles[/tex]

which would simplify to

[tex]1020 = 6x[/tex]

then, you isolate x by dividing 6 from both sides to get the final answer of

[tex]170 \: miles = x[/tex]

One car rental agency charges $0.29 per mile plus a $10 weekly fee. Another rental agency charges $.0.35 per mile with no fee. You need to rent the car for 3 weeks. Write and solve an equation to find the number of miles for which both agencies will charge the same.

Answers

Answer:

166.67 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

let the number of mile for which the cost for both car rental be same is x mile

For first car rental

weekly fees charged = $10

cost of 1 mile = $0.29

cost of x miles = x*cost of 1 mile = $0.29x

total money charged by first car rental = $10 + $0.29x

For other car rental

weekly fees charged = 0

cost of 1 mile = $0.35

cost of x miles = x*cost of 1 mile = $0.35x

total money charged by other car rental = $0.29x

_______________________________________

since we have to find miles for which charges are same

thus

total money charged by first car rental  = total money charged by other car rental

10 + 0.29x = 0.35x --------------------equation required

=> 10 = 0.35x - 0.29x

=> 10 = 0.06x

=> x = 10/0.06 = 166.67

Thus, the number of miles for which both agencies will charge the same is 166.67 miles.

What is Derivative of a function?

The derivative of a function of a real variable measures the sensitivity to change of the function value with respect to a change in its argument

It is denoted by f ' ( x ) = dy / dx

Given data ,

Let the function be f ( x ) =   [tex]ln(x + 4 + e^{-3x} )[/tex]

To differentiate f ( x ) ,

Let  [tex]y=ln(a)[/tex] , where [tex]a=x+4+e^{-3x}[/tex]

So ,

[tex]e^{y} =a[/tex]

Using this function , we can write

[tex]e^{y} = x + 4 + e^{-3x}[/tex]

On differentiating , we get

[tex]e^{y}\frac{dy}{dx} = 1 + 0 -3e^{-3x}[/tex]

Dividing by [tex]e^{y}[/tex] on both sides , we get

[tex]\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{ 1-3e^{-3x}}{e^{y} }[/tex]

We know , [tex]e^{y} =a[/tex]

And [tex]e^{y}=x+4+e^{-3x}[/tex]

So ,   [tex]\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{ 1-3e^{-3x}}{x+4+e^{-3x} }[/tex]

Therefore [tex]f'(x)=\frac{dy}{dx} = \frac{ 1-3e^{-3x}}{x+4+e^{-3x} }[/tex]

Now , [tex]f'(0)=\frac{1-3e^{0}}{0+4+e^{0} }[/tex]

[tex]f'(0)=\frac{-2}{5}[/tex]

Hence , the value of   [tex]f'(0)=\frac{-2}{5}[/tex]

There are 32 marbles in a bag 14 were red, what is the ratio of blue to red?

Please help

Answers

Answer: 9:7

Subtract 32 by 14, because there are 14 red marbles.

32 - 14 = 18.

Now, get the numbers 14 and 18. Reduce them to the lowest.

18 ÷ 2 = 9

14 ÷ 2 = 7

Make 9 & 7 to a ration.

Ration- 9:7

Answer is   9:7

================================================

Explanation

There are 32 marbles and 14 are red. If there are only two colors, then we have 32-14 = 18 blue marbles.

The ratio of blue to red is 18:14. We write the two values separated by a colon. The order matters (blue comes first, then red).

The last step is to reduce the ratio 18:14 to 9:7. Note how I divided both parts by the GCF 2.

The original fraction is [tex]\frac{4}{8}[/tex]

Let the numerator = a

Let the denominator = b

Denominator is 4 larger than the numerator: b = a + 4

2 is added to both the numerator and the denominator: (a + 4 +2) and a + 2

The algebraic equation from the given statement is formed as follows;

[tex]\frac{a+ 2}{a+4+2 } = \frac{3}{5} \\\\\frac{a+ 2}{a + 6} =\frac{3}{5} \\\\5(a + 2) = 3(a + 6)\\\\5a + 10 = 3a + 18\\\\5a - 3a = 18 -10\\\\2a = 8\\\\a =4[/tex]

Let 6 and 4 by x2 and y2 and 4 and 1 be x1 and y1.

The slope is 3/2.

Now, y = 3/2 x +b

To solve for b, plug in a point.

Paul's mom sent him to the grocery store with $10 to buy bread and cheese for sandwiches. Paul picked out a loaf of bread that costs $3.25, and a deli cheese that costs $5.99 a pound. He would like to buy as much cheese as possible, so he asks the deli worker to see how much each slice weighs. Each slice weighs 0.04 pounds. Which inequality can be solved to find x, the number of slices that Paul can afford to buy?

Answers

Given:

Total amount = $10

Cost of loaf of bread = $3.25

Cost of cheese = $5.99 per pound

Each slice weights = 0.04 pounds.

To find:

The inequality for the number of slices that Paul can afford to buy.

Solution:

Let x be the number of slices that Paul can afford to buy.

Weight of on slice is 0.04 pounds. So, weight of x slices is 0.04x pound.

Cost of cheese = $5.99 per pound

So, total cost of cheese for x slices = $5.99 × 0.04x

Now, Paul has $10 to buy bread and cheese for sandwiches. Cost of loaf of bread is $3.25.

[tex]3.25+(5.99\times 0.04x)\leq 10[/tex]

[tex]0.2396x\leq 10-3.25[/tex]

[tex]0.2396x\leq 6.75[/tex]

Divide both sides by 0.2396.

[tex]x\leq \dfrac{6.75}{0.2396}[/tex]

[tex]x\leq 28.172[/tex]

The maximum integer value of x is 28.

Therefore, the required inequity is [tex]3.25+(5.99\times 0.04x)\leq 10[/tex] and 28 number of slices Paul can afford to buy.
