A train goes from Springfield, MA to Boston at a speed of 40 mph. On the return journey it moves at a speed of 80 mph. If the return journey takes an hour less than the outward journey, what is the average speed overall of the train?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is 53.3333333

Step-by-step explanation:

first you know that the speed on the way there is 40 mph and the back is 80

lets call the time x On the way there the time would just be X on the way back it would be x-1 because it took one less our

to calculate the distance you need to do speed times time therefor the distance on the way there would be 40x and the way back would be 80x-80

Then I made an equation 40x=80x-80 X=2

so the distance would be 80 miles but to find average speed you need to do total distance over total time so it would be 160 over 3 because the time is 2x-2 x=2 so thats 3

Hope this helps

the equation y = 1/5x represents a proportional relationship. explain how you can tell the relationship is proportional from the graph of the equation, and you can find the constan of proportionality.

Answers

Answer:

Yes, y = [tex]\frac{1}{5}[/tex] x represents a proportional relationship and the constant of proportionality is [tex]\frac{1}{5}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The Proportional is a relationship between two quantity one of them equals the product of the other and a constant, where this constant called the constant of proportionality

If x and y are proportion, then y = k x, where k is the constant of proportionalityThe proportional relationship represented graphically by a line passing through the origin point (0, 0)

Let us solve the question

∵ y = [tex]\frac{1}{5}[/tex] x

→ It the same as the form of the proportional equation above

∵  [tex]\frac{1}{5}[/tex]  is a constant

∴ y is the product of x and constant

y =  [tex]\frac{1}{5}[/tex] x represents a proportional relationship

Substitute x by 0 to find y and show it represented by a line passing through the origin

∵ x = 0

∴ y = [tex]\frac{1}{5}[/tex] (0) = 0

→ That means point (0, 0) lies on the line which represents the equation

∴ The line which represents this relation is passing through the origin

y = [tex]\frac{1}{5}[/tex] x represents a proportional relationship

∵ y = kx, k is the constant of proportionality

∵ y = [tex]\frac{1}{5}[/tex] x

∴ k =  [tex]\frac{1}{5}[/tex]

The constant of proportionality is [tex]\frac{1}{5}[/tex]

6x(3x – 4)(x - 1)
6x²(3x - 4)(x - 1)

Answers

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

The completely factored form is 6x² (3x - 4) (x - 1).

Option D is the correct answer.

What is an expression?

An expression is a way of writing a statement with more than two variables or numbers with operations such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.

Example: 2 + 3x + 4y = 7 is an expression.

We have,

18[tex]x^4[/tex]– 42x³ + 24x²

Now,

The common factor of 18, 42, and 24 is 6.

And x² is common to all the terms.

So,

6x² (3x²– 7x + 4) _____(1)

Now,

(3x²– 7x + 4)

3x² - (4 + 3)x + 4

3x² - 4x - 3x + 4

x(3x - 4) - 1(3x - 4)

(3x - 4) (x - 1) ______(2)

Now,

From (1) and (2) we get,

6x² (3x - 4) (x - 1)

Thus,

6x² (3x - 4) (x - 1) is the completely factored form.

A lab technician must screen 175 slides under the microscope each week. If she works 7 hours a day, 5 days a week, how many slides,on average, must she screen in one hour

Answers

Answer:

The lab technician must screen 5 slides per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

If the lab technician works 5 days a week, and 7 hours per day, then she works 5*7 = 35 hours a week.

Given she must screen 175 slides each week, we can calculate on average, the number of slides per hour needed to complete the work.

The average is calculated as:

[tex]\displaystyle average=\frac{\text{total slides}}{\text{total hours}}[/tex]

[tex]\displaystyle average=\frac{175}{35}=5\ slides/hour[/tex]

Solution:

Let the unknown value be x.

4 groups of x tenths is 1.6.

[tex]4x=1.6[/tex]

Divide both sides by 4.

[tex]\dfrac{4x}{4}=\dfrac{1.6}{4}[/tex]

[tex]x=0.4[/tex]

So, 4 groups of 0.4 tenths is 1.6.

Answers

answer: 99°

explanation: first, we need to find angle T. we know that angle T and angle R are vertical angles, which means they’re the same. therefore, we solve the equation for x by doing angle T = angle R:
3x + 36 = 6x - 9
subtract 36 on both sides
3x = 6x - 45
subtract 6 on both sides
-3x = -45
divide both sides by -3
x= 15
then, plug in the value of x in 3x+36 to get angle T:
3(15) + 36= 81°
we found that angle T is 81°.
now, we need to find the supplementary angle of angle T. supplementary angles add up together to have a sum of 180°. to find the supplementary angle, subtract angle T from 180°:
180 - 81 = 99°
there we have the answer!

Answer: 24.2° SouthWest

Step-by-step explanation:

First step: DRAW A PICTURE of the vectors from head to tail (see image)

I created a perpendicular from the resultant vector to the vertex of the given vectors so I could use Pythagorean Theorem to find the length of the perpendicular. Then I used that value to find the angle of the plane.

Perpendicular (x):

 cos 35° = adjacent/hypotenuse

  cos 35° = x/160

→ x = 160 cos 35°

Angle (θ):

sin θ = opposite/hypotenuse

sin θ = x/320

sin θ = 160 cos 35°/320

    θ = arcsin (160 cos 35°/320)

    θ = 24.2°

Direction is down (south) and left (west)

For their study, they created 333 similar ecosystems in their lab containing a variety of insects and plants. They randomly assigned each ecosystem to be exposed to rock music, country music, or a conventional city soundscape for two consecutive weeks. At the end of the study, they measured how successful the species were in each ecosystem. What type of experiment design is this?

Answers

Answer:

The experiment design used in this case is the between-subjected design.

Step-by-step explanation:

Between-subject design is a sort of experimental design where the individuals of an experiment are allocated to varied situations, with each individual being treated with only one of the experimental conditions.

In this case three similar ecosystems are designed containing a variety of insects and plants. Then each ecosystem to be exposed to rock music, country music, or a conventional city soundscape for two consecutive weeks.

Then after two weeks period they measured how successful the species were in each ecosystem.

The experiment design used in this case is the between-subjected design.

Answer:

A completely randomized design

Step-by-step explanation:

The 3 ecosystems were each randomly assigned a treatment. They were not grouped in any way with random assignment happening within each group, so this is a completely randomized design. (From Kahn)
