Your distance from lightning varies directly with the time it takes you to hear thunder. If you hear thunder 10
seconds after you see the lightning, you are about 2 miles from the lightning.

a. Write a direct variation equation for the relationship between time and distance.

b. Estimate how many seconds it would take for the thunder to travel a distance of 4 miles.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

[tex]a.\ D=\dfrac{1}{5}t[/tex]

b. 20 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Let [tex]D[/tex] be the distance in miles and

[tex]t[/tex] be the time in seconds and

[tex]s[/tex] be the speed in miles/sec

Formula for Distance is given as:

[tex]Distance = Speed \times Time\\OR\\D=st[/tex]

Given that:

Distance = 2 miles and

Time = 10 seconds

Putting the values in formula:

[tex]2=s\times 10\\\Rightarrow s =\dfrac{1}{5} \ miles/sec[/tex]

Answer a:

Putting the value of [tex]s[/tex] back in the formula to find the direct variation equation for the relationship between time and distance:

[tex]D=\dfrac{1}{5}t[/tex]

Answer b:

Using the above formula and putting [tex]D=4\ miles[/tex]:

[tex]4=\dfrac{1}{5}t\\\Rightarrow t =\bold{20\ seconds}[/tex]

The sugar sweet company is going to transfer its sugar to market. It will cost $4500 to rent trucks, and it will cost an additional $225 for each ton of sugar transported.

Let C Represent the total cost (in dollars), and let S represent the amount of sugar (in tons) transported. Write an equation relating C to S. Then use this equation to find a total cost to transport 14 tons of sugar.

Answers

Answer:

C=$7650

Step-by-step explanation:

Flat fee of 4500

S= 225x

x=14 tons of sugar

4500+225(14)=$7650 (C)

Equation:

C=4500+225(S)

Answer:

Total cost to transport 14 tons of sugar: $7650

Step-by-step explanation:

In the problem we are trying to find, C, the total cost to transport 14 tons of sugar.

$4500 to rent trucks

Additional $225 for each ton of sugar transported

C=4500+225(S)

We have our equation so now when begin to solve.

The problem gives us, S, the number of tons of sugar we are transporting, which is 14 tons.

So if it is an additional $225 for each ton of sugar then we would multiply 225 and 14. Which will look something like this:

C=4500+225(14)

Now we just simplify!

225(14)=3150

C=4500+3150

C=7650

if each side of the cube shown above has the same length as the measured side what is the approximate volume of the cube

Answers

Answer:

The measured side is not shown, so i will answer in a general way.

A cube is a 3-dimensional object with 6 square faces.

You know that all the sides of a square have the same length, then is the same for the cube.

To calculate the volume of a cube, we start with the area of the base.

The base is a square of sidelength L (Suppose that L is the length of the measured side)

The area of the base is:

A = L^2.

To find the volume, we must multiply the area of the base by the height of the fire (because the section of the base does not change).

And the height of the cube is also L.

Then the volume is:

V = L*a = L^3

Answer:

x = 2.125 + 0.375y

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

8x + -3y = 17

Solving

8x + -3y = 17

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '3y' to each side of the equation.

8x + -3y + 3y = 17 + 3y

Combine like terms: -3y + 3y = 0

8x + 0 = 17 + 3y

8x = 17 + 3y

Divide each side by '8'.

x = 2.125 + 0.375y

Simplifying

x = 2.125 + 0.375y


What is 2/3 divided by 4/5???????

Answers

Answer:

10/12 also 5/6

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

10/12 or the simplified version 5/6

Step-by-step explanation:

you have to multiply 2/3 by the reciprocal of 4/5 which is 5/4

so you write down 2/3 times 5/4 (just multiply across so it's 2x5 over 3x4)

2x5=10 and 3x4=12

10 is the numerator and 12 is the denominator

simplify if the problem calls for it by dividing the top and bottom numbers by 2

To make 3/4 pound it makes nuts how many pounds of cashews would you add to 1/8 pound them almonds and 1/4 pound of peanuts

Answers

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  a.  3/8 lb of cashews

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount that needs to be added is the difference between the amount of mix wanted and the amount of mix provided by the given quantities of nuts.

  3/4 lb - (1/8 lb +1/4 lb) = (3/4 -1/4 -1/8) lb = (2/4 -1/8) lb = (4/8 -1/8) lb

  = 3/8 lb . . . . amount of cashews needed

Use the quadratic formula where -15 = a, 7 = b, 23 = c:  [tex]\frac{-b +- \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a}[/tex]

Plug in the values: [tex]\frac{-7 +- \sqrt{7^2 - 4(-15)(23)}}{2(-15)}[/tex]

And get: [tex]\frac{-7 +- \sqrt{49 +1380}}{-30}[/tex]

Which simplifies to: [tex]\frac{-7 +- \sqrt{1429}}{-30} = (-7 + 37.8021163)/-30 OR (-7 - 37.8021163)/-30 = 30.8021163/30 OR -44.8021163/30[/tex]

multiply by negative three on the first equation then solve

Answer:

(-2, 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

2x+8y=4...(1)

6x-y=-13...(2)

You would want to have an x or a y value that equals the same in both equations. In this case, we can multiply equation 1 by 3 so that both x's in each equation equal 6x.

(2x+8y=4) x 3...(1)

6x-y=-13...(2)

becomes...

6x+24y=12...(3)

6x-y=-13...(4)

As you can see here, both x's in this equation are equal.

Now we will be combining these equations together. Take the equal x values and make sure they will equal 0. You do that by either subtracting the entire equation or adding it. In this problem, we will be subtracting it because 6x-6x=0

(6x+24y=12) - (6x-y=-13) = 25y =25

Now that we can solve for y separately, 25y=25   y=1

To solve for x, just substitute y into one of the original equations (equations 1 or 2). For this problem, I'll use equation 1.

6x-y=-13

6x-1=-13

6x=-12

x=-2

-12,-9,-6,-3,0

Answers

Answer:  B) 12, 15, 18, 21, 24

Explanation:

The given arithmetic sequence is of the form

a+d(n-1)

where 'a' is the first term and d is the common difference

In the case of

12+3(n-1)

we have a = 12 as our first term and d = 3 as the common difference. This means we start with 12 and add on 3 to each term to get the next one

12+3 = 15

15+3 = 18

18+3 = 21

21+3 = 24

and so on.

Side note: your teacher asks about the first four terms, but each answer choice lists five terms.
