Andrew and Michael are 15 miles apart. If they walk towards each other, they meet in 3
hours. If they both walk in the same direction, Michael overtakes, Andrew in 8 hours.
How fast does each boy walk?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: Andrew - 1.875    Michael- 3.125

Step-by-step explanation:

If Andrew overtakes in 8 hours, we can divide 15 miles by 8 to see how many miles per hour he goes.

15/8 = 1.875

Then we can multiply 1.875 by 3 to see how much he traveled while walking towards Michael.

1.875*3=5.265- the distance he traveled

Now subtract that by 15 to see how many miles Michael walked.

15-5.625=9.375

That means Michael walked 9.375 miles.

Divide 9.375 by 3 to see how many miles he walked per hour

9.375/ 3 = 3.125

Answers

Answer:

  Each term in the pattern will be odd.

Step-by-step explanation:

The first differences are ...

  7 -3 = 4

  15 -7 = 8

These differ by 4, and the second is double the first.

These relationships between the first differences give rise to two possible sequences: a) an exponential sequence; b) a quadratic sequence. We can use a graphing calculator to find the coefficients of each of the patterns.

Exponential Sequence

  a[n] = 2·2^n -1

  The sequence is 3, 7, 15, 31, 63, 127, 255, 511, 1023, 2047.

  The 10th term is 2047.

Quadratic Sequence

  a[n] = 2n^2 -2n +3

  The sequence is 3, 7, 15, 27, 43, 63, 87, 115, 147, 183.

  The 10th term is 183.

__

Based on the above, the only thing we can say about these sequences is that they are all odd numbers.

Clearly, the 10th term is not 30. 7 is not a multiple of 3, so that observation fails immediately. 15 is not prime, so that observation also fails immediately.

_____

Additional comment

The differences of first differences are called "second differences". The differences of those are "third differences". and so on. If you keep taking differences of a sequence described by a polynomial, the n-th differences being constant means the sequence is described by an n-th degree polynomial.

Here, if we assume the 2nd differences are constant at 4, then the sequence is described by a 2nd-degree polynomial. (Similarly, constant first-differences are described by a 1st-degree polynomial--a linear function.)

If sequential levels of differences are all exponential sequences, then the sequence itself is an exponential sequence. As here, it may have a vertical offset. The base of the exponential will be the common ratio of the differences. (Here, the first differences have a ratio of 8/4 = 2, so the sequence could be exponential with a base of 2.)

Each term in the pattern will be odd

We know that 2^2 * 2 = 2^2 *2^1

a^b*a*c = a^(b+c)  so 2^2*2*1 = 2^(2+1)+ 2^3

2^3 / 2^4

We know that a^b / a^c = a^(b-c)

A manufacturer determines that the cost of making a computer component is ​$4.171717 Write the repeating decimal cost as a fraction and as a mixed number.

Answers

Let 14.17 be x

14.171717 = x

Multiplying both sides by 100

1417.17 = 100x

1403 + 14.17 = 100x

Since 14.17 = x, replacing it with x

1403 + x = 100x

1403 = 100x - x = 99x

1403 / 99 = x

x = 467 2/3 ( a mixed fraction) OR 1403 / 99

Club members wrote a program together, with several people working on each of 4 parts. If the first part of the program required 1/3 of the total time, the second part needed 1/2 of the remaining time, the third part took 30 minutes, and the fourth part took 60 minutes, how many hours did the program take to write?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

4 parts: 1/3 + 1/2 + 30min + 60min

1/3 of an hour is = 20 minutes

1/2 of an hour is 30 minutes

20 + 30 + 30 + 60(1h)= 140 minutes = 2 hours and 20 minutes

The total time did the program take to write is  2 hours and 20 minutes.

What is arithmetic?

The branch of mathematics dealing with the properties and manipulation of numbers. a science that deals with the addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division of numbers. Fractions, decimals, percentages, fractions, square root, exponents, and other arithmetic operations are used to achieve mathematical simplifications.

Given that:

several people working on each of 4 parts.

First part = 1/3 of the total time,

The second part = 1/2 of the remaining time,

The third part =30 minutes,

Fourth part= 60 minutes,

So, the total time in hour.

4 parts:

1/3 of an hour is = 20 minutes

1/2 of an hour is 30 minutes

Total time=1/3 + 1/2 + 30min + 60min

=20 + 30 + 30 + 60(1h)

= 140 minutes

= 2 hours and 20 minutes.

So, the total time did the program take to write is  2 hours and 20 minutes.

In two or more complete sentences, explain how to use ordered pairs of points in f(x) = 3x - 5 and g(x) = x+5/3 to determine if f(x) and g(x) are inverses of each other

Answers

Answer:

for any point (x, y), that appears in one function, the point (y, x) must appear in the other function. for any point (x, y), that doesn't appear in one function, the point (y, x) must not appear in the other function.  

so if you find any point that doesn't meet the above rules, you can prove that the functions are not inverses of each other.  

to prove that they are inverses of each other, you need to check all points in the functions, and there is an infinity of them, so instead, you can write f(x) like this:  

y = 3x - 5  

solve for x:  

y + 5 = 3x  

x = (y + 5) / 3  

swap x and y:  

y = (x + 5) / 3  

this is the same as g(x) which, therefore the functions are inverse of each other.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the change in altitude for the air balloon is -1500 feet, all within a span of 60 minutes, which then we are asked what is the rate of change.

To find the rate of change, we have to be able to divide a number by both sides that will not give us a decimal or very odd number. To avoid getting a decimal, divide both sides by 60.

-1500/60 = -25

60/60 = 1

So the rate of change would be -25 feet

It would be -25 feet because of how the altitude changes with her time

solve |x-3|=7 plz help asap I will mark brainliest

Answers

Answer:

x=10  or x=-4

Step-by-step explanation:

|x-3|=7

There are two solutions, one positive and one negative

x-3 = 7   and x-3 = -7

Add 3 to all sides

x-3+3 = 7+3           x-3+3 = -7+3

x = 10                    x = -4

Well, if we are taking the absolute value, of |x - 3| = 7, then you have a total of two cases. 7 can be either positive or negitive.

Knowing this, we can write out our two cases as:

|x - 3| = 7, or

|x - 3| = -7

Using these two equations, we can solve the equations for our values of x:

First Case:

|x - 3| = 7

x - 3 = 7

x = 10

Second Case:

|x - 3| = -7

x - 3 = -7

x = -4

So, our two cases show us that x can equal -4, or 10.
