Answers

Answer:

34

Step-by-step explanation:

x² = 30² + 16²

(pythagoras theorem)

x = Square root 30² + 16²

x = 34

Pythagorean theorem
A^2 + B^2 = C^2
30^2 + 16^2 = C^2
1156 = c^2
Square root of 1156 = c
C = 34
Therefore x = 34

On the first day of travel, a driver was going at a speed of 40 mph. The next day, he increased the speed to 60 mph. If he drove 2 more hours on the first day and traveled 20 more miles, find the total distance traveled in the two days.

Answers

Answer:

380

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a bit nasty. It depends on how you read the 20 miles more and what you do with it. The best and most careful way to do it is do it a long way setting up the two equations carefully.

Second day

Let the time travelled = t

Let the speed travelled = 60 mph

d2 = 60*t

First Day

40*(t + 2) = d1

but d1 = d2 + 20 because he travelled 20 miles further on d1

40 * (t + 2) = d2 + 20

d2 however = 60*t

40*(t+2 ) = 60*t + 20          Remove the brackets

40t + 80 = 60t + 20           Subtract 20 from both sides

40t + 60 = 60t                   Subtract 40t from both sides

60 = 20*t                           Divide by 20

t = 60/20

t = 3 hours.

Day 2 = 60 + t = 180

Day 1 = 40*5  = 200

Total distance = 380

Where did that 20 miles go? It was just an observation about the difference in distance travelled between the 2 days.

The total distance the driver traveled in the two days is 260 miles

From the question, on the first day, the driver was going as a speed of 40 mph.

Let s be speed

∴ [tex]s_{1}= 40mph[/tex]

On the second day, he increased the speed to 60 mph

∴ [tex]s_{2}= 60mph[/tex]

From the statement- If he drove 2 more hours on the first day

Let time be t

Then

[tex]t_{1}= t_{2} + 2[/tex] hrs

and traveled 20 more miles

Let d be distance  

Then,

[tex]d_{1}= d_{2} + 20[/tex] miles

From the formula

Distance = Speed × Time

Then,

[tex]d = s \times t[/tex]

∴ [tex]d_{1} = s_{1} \times t_{1}[/tex]

From above,

[tex]d_{1}= d_{2}+20[/tex] miles

[tex]s_{1}= 40mph[/tex]

[tex]t_{1}= t_{2} + 2[/tex] hrs

Putting these into

[tex]d_{1} = s_{1} \times t_{1}[/tex]

[tex]d_{2} + 20 = 40\times (t_{2}+2)[/tex] ...... (1)

But,

[tex]Time = \frac{Distance}{Speed}[/tex]

∴ [tex]t_{2}= \frac{d_{2} }{s_{2} }[/tex]

From above, [tex]s_{2}= 60mph[/tex]

∴ [tex]t_{2}= \frac{d_{2} }{60}[/tex]

Put this into equation (1)

[tex]d_{2} + 20 = 40\times (t_{2}+2)[/tex]

[tex]d_{2} + 20 = 40\times (\frac{d_{2}}{60} +2)[/tex]

[tex]d_{2} + 20 = \frac{2}{3}d_{2} +80\\d_{2} = \frac{2}{3}d_{2} +80-20\\d_{2} = \frac{2}{3}d_{2} +60[/tex]

Multiply through by 3

[tex]3\times d_{2} = 3\times \frac{2}{3}d_{2} +3 \times 60\\3d_{2} = 2d_{2} + 120\\3d_{2} -2d_{2} = 120[/tex]

∴ [tex]d_{2} = 120[/tex] miles

∴The distance traveled on the second day is 120 miles

For the distance traveled on the first day,

Substitute [tex]d_{2}[/tex] into the equation

[tex]d_{1}= d_{2}+20[/tex] miles

∴ [tex]d_{1}= 120+20[/tex]

[tex]d_{1}= 140[/tex] miles

∴ The distance traveled on the first day is 140 miles

The total distance traveled in the two days = [tex]d_{1} + d_{2}[/tex]

The total distance traveled in the two days = 120 miles + 140 miles

The total distance traveled in the two days = 260 miles

Hence, the total distance the driver traveled in the two days is 260 miles

Two cars leave the park at the same time opposite directions one goes 3 times faster after 6 hours they travel 140miles how fast did theyg go

Answers

Answer:

Their speeds are;

5.83 mph and 17.49 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that they leave the park the same time.

Let the speed one car traveled be v

Since the other car is 3 times faster, then it means that, it's speed is 3v.

Now, after 6 hours they travel 140 miles.

We know that;

Speed = distance/time.

Thus;

(v + 3v) = 140/6

4v = 140/6

v = 140/24

v = 5.83 mph

Thus, second car's speed = 3v = 3 × 5.83 = 17.49 mph


Use the figure to find the Total Area.

Answers

Answer:

60

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply length times width times height

Answer:

C or 104

Step-by-step explanation:

I assume this is surface area, and I don't know what kinda sadist person would make everyone learn in "Total Area," but it is what it is.

So, to find total area, we need to literally multiply every different number with the other.

(You should not do it the way I did, as I did it in the easiest and simpliest way to understand possible.)

Actually, you get the length, width, and height of a figure and do what is below pretty much.

You multiply the length by the width, the length by the height, and the width by the height (doesn't have to be in this order, this is just to make it easy to remember which ones you did.)

We multiply the

5 * 6

5 * 2

and then the

6 * 2

This accounts for every possible case, as multiplying 2 * 5 gives the same thing as the second expression anyways.

So we then solve these three expressions.

5 * 6 = 30

5 * 2 = 10

and then the

6 * 2 = 12

And we add them to get

30 + 10 + 12

= 52.

Then we multiply by 2, because there are two cases of each face of the shape.

You need to remember that there is 3 other faces on the shape you are looking at, it's just that the shape/figure is facing you in a way that you can't see them.

After multiplying by 2, we get

52 * 2

= 104, which is C.

A shopkeeper fixed the marked price of his radio to make a profit of 30 %. Allowing 15 % discount on the marked price, the radio was sold. What percent profit did he make? ​

Step-by-step explanation:

by the question..

the marked price was fixed to make 30% profit

then..

the marked price will be

x+ 30% of x

= x + 30/100 × x

=x+ 0.3x

=1.3x

soo .. the marked price is 1.3x

now.. after allowing 15% discount..

the selling price will be

1.3x - 15% of 1.3x

= 1.3x - 0.195x

= 1.105x

You want to put a 3 inch thick layer of topsoil for a new 15 ft by 26 ft garden. The dirt store sells by the cubic yards. How many cubic yards will you need to order? The store only sells in increments of 1/4 cubic yards.

Answers

Answer:

You will need to order 3.75 cubic yards of topsoil.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since you want to put a 3 inch thick layer of topsoil for a new 15 ft by 26 ft garden, and the dirt store sells by the cubic yards, to determine how many cubic yards will you need to order given that the store only sells in increments of 1/4 cubic yards, the following calculation should be performed:

3 inches = 0.25 feet

15 x 26 = 390 x 0.25 = 97.5

1 cubic yard = 27 cubic feet

97.5 cubic feet = 3.61 cubic yards

3.75 = 1/4 x 15

Therefore, you will need to order 3.75 cubic yards of topsoil.

The equation your teacher has given you is an identity. We can prove this by transforming one side into the other. I'll transform the right hand side (RHS) into the left hand side (LHS).

This means I'll keep the LHS the same for each line. I'll only change the RHS. The goal is to get the same thing on both sides (I could go the other way around but I find this pathway is easier).

[tex]\tan^4(\theta)+\sec^2(\theta) = \sec^4(\theta)-\tan^2(\theta)\\\\\tan^4(\theta)+\sec^2(\theta) = \left(\sec^2(\theta)\right)^2-\tan^2(\theta)\\\\\tan^4(\theta)+\sec^2(\theta) = \left(\tan^2(\theta)+1\right)^2-\tan^2(\theta) \ \text{ ... see note 1}\\\\\tan^4(\theta)+\sec^2(\theta) = \tan^4(\theta)+2\tan^2(\theta)+1-\tan^2(\theta)\\\\[/tex]

[tex]\tan^4(\theta)+\sec^2(\theta) = \tan^4(\theta)+\tan^2(\theta)+1\\\\\tan^4(\theta)+\sec^2(\theta) = \tan^4(\theta)+\sec^2(\theta)-1+1 \ \text{ ... see note 2}\\\\\tan^4(\theta)+\sec^2(\theta) = \tan^4(\theta)+\sec^2(\theta) \ \ \Large \checkmark\\\\[/tex]

note1: I use the identity [tex]\tan^2(\theta)+1 = \sec^2(\theta)[/tex] which is derived from the pythagorean trig identity [tex]\sin^2(\theta)+\cos^2(\theta) = 1[/tex]note2: based on the previous note, we can say [tex]\tan^2(\theta) = \sec^2(\theta)-1[/tex]

So because we've arrived at the same thing on both sides, the original equation is an identity. It always true no matter what theta value you plug in, as long as theta is in the domain. So something like theta = pi/2 won't work because tan(pi/2) = undefined and sec(pi/2) = undefined. It's based on how cos(pi/2) = 0 and this value is in the denominator. Dividing by zero is undefined.

Consequently, this means all solutions to cos(theta) = 0 will be excluded from the domain. Everything else works.
