Two ants, Andy and Ashley, went to visit their friend. Andy crawled the whole way, but Ashley spent half of the way riding on a caterpillar, which was two times slower than crawling. Ashley spent the second half of the journey riding on a grasshopper, which was 5 times faster than crawling. Which ant got to their friend's house first, if they left at the same time?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Andy

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say that x is Andy's speed, and d is the distance he traveled.

The time it takes Andy to reach his friend is d/x.

The time it takes Ashley to travel the first half is (d/2)/(x/2) = d/x.

The time it takes Ashley to travel the second half is (d/2)/(5x) = d/(10x).

The total time is d/x + d/(10x) = 1.1 d/x.

It takes Ashley 1.1 times longer to reach the friend.  Andy gets there first.

Garden roller is in the shape of cylinder.

So, one revolution =  Curved surface area of the cylinder

diameter  = 70 cm

radius = 70/2 = 35 cm

h = 100 cm

Curved surface area of the cylinder = 2πrh

                                                           = [tex]2*\frac{22}{7}*35*100[/tex]

                                                           = 22000 square cm

You are going to make “words” using the letters in the word WHISKAS. a) How many seven-letter words can you make? b) How many seven-letter words can you make if the two S’s must be together? c) How many seven-letter words can you make if the words must begin with A and end with H?

Answers

Hey there! I'm happy to help!

PART A

When we say words, we don't really mean words. We just mean how many different ways we can arrange the letters. We could make a word like Hiskasw and that would work.

We have six different letters: w, h, i, s, k, and a. We have two s's and this will be very important when finding these permutations.

The first thing we do is take the number of letters and find its factorial. In this case, it is seven, so we have 7×6×5×4×3×2×1=5040.

But, this is not how many combinations there are, because we have two s's, and since they are the same many of our combinations are actually identical, but the s's are just switched. So, we take the number of s's (2) and we factorial it, which just still equals two, and then we divide our first factorial by that.

5040/2=2520

There are 2520 ways you can arrange the word WHISKAS.

PART B

Let's think of the seven letter slots in the word. It doesn't matter where you place one of the S's, but a slot next to the first S you place only has one choice of letter, which is another S to make it adjacent. This means that one  specific slot is required to have an S. If we start off filling in our required one with an S, we have six letters left to fill in our other slots, which will give us a result of 6!, which is 720 seven-letter words.

PART C

Now, we have to have A be the first term and H be the last. If we think of the seven letter slots, we have only one choice on the first one, which is A, and only one choice on the last one, which is H. This leaves us with 5! or 120 possibilities, but we also have to divide by two because we have two S's, so there are 60 seven-letter words you can make if the words must begin with A and end with H.

if the edges of the base of a rectangular prism are 8 cm and 6 cm, and the diagonal is 10√2, what is the volume of the solid?

Answers

Answer:

221.12 cm^3

Step-by-step explanation:

Imagine that you have the 6cm side of the prism base facing you, and that you cut the prism in half through the vertex.  Doing this will form two triangles.  The hypotenuse of the triangle is the same as the "diagonal" that is 10√2 cm.  The base of this triangle is half of the 6" side, or 3 cm.

Use the Pythagorean Theorem to determine the height (h) of the prism:

h^2 + 3^2 = (10√2)^2, or

h^2 = 200-9 = 191

Then the height is √191 cm

and the base area is 6cm times 8 cm, or 48 cm^2

and so we end up with the volume V = (1/3)(base area)(height), or

                                                           V = (1/3)(48 cm^2)(√191 cm), or

                                                                  roughly 221.12 cm^3

Answer:

Purple line: 4

Red dashed line: 2

Blue line: 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

The purple line is the steepest line, therefore it has the biggest constant of proportionality or slope. Since 4 is the biggest number among the others, we attribute it to the purple line (the one with the point C on it).

Think of it this way:

[tex]y = ax+b \\[/tex]

here [tex]b = 0[/tex] so [tex]y = ax[/tex]

The greater a is, the greater y is. So for any value of x, y will be become bigger and bigger if we increase the value of a.

Take for example this one:

[tex]y = 2x \\[/tex]

Take [tex]x=2\\[/tex] therefore [tex]y =4[/tex]

Now take [tex]y = 4x[/tex] and take [tex]x =2[/tex] therefore [tex]y = 8[/tex]

When we increased this constant of proportionality, as you can see from 2 to 4, the value of y increase from 4 to 8.

Hope this is helpful. Think of it really carefully, and I'm sure you'll grasp the concept.

thank you <3

Answers

Answer:

92°

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that [tex]\overline{QV}[/tex] is a straight line which means that we know that ∠QTU + ∠VTU = 180

11x+4+∠VTU = 180

∠VTU = 180-11x-4

∠VTU = 176-11x

Then, using the triangle inequality, we know that ∠VTU+∠TUV+∠UVT = 180

3x+14+54+176-11x=180

-8x+244=180

-8x = -64

x=8

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that

Rent  = $100

Groceries and drinks = $1000

Insurance premiums   = $10

Loan interest payment  =$30

Clothes  = $200

Utilities  = $300

Home security fee  = $200​

Fixed cost are costs that does not vary and variable cost are costs that vary with goods and services.

In the given problem, rent , insurance premiums, loans interest payment ad home security fee are fixed cost.

Groceries and drinks, clothes and utilities are variable cost.

So, total variable cost for last month is

[tex]\text{Total variable cost}=\$1000+\$200+\$300=\$1500[/tex]

One student ate 3/20 of all candies and another 1.2 lb. The second student ate 3/5 of the candies and the remaining 0.3 lb. What weight of candies did they each eat? PLEASE HELP!!

Answers

Let the total weight of the candy = x

We know the total weight is:

X = 3/20x + 1.2 + 3/5x+ 0.3

Simplify:

X= 3/20x + 1.2 + 12/20x + 0.3

X = 15/20x + 1.5

Subtract 15/20x from both sides:

5/20x = 1.5

Divide both sides by 5/20:

X = 1.5 / 5/20

X = 6

Total = 6 pounds.

Here, two terms [tex]5s^6t^2[/tex] and [tex]8s^6t^2[/tex] have same power for s and t i.e. they are like terms.

Combine like terms , we get

Degree of [tex]6st^9[/tex]  is 1+9=10;

Degree of [tex]- 3s^6t^2[/tex] is 6+2=8;

Degree of  [tex]- 6t^7[/tex]  is 7.

Since degree of the polynomial = highest degree i.e. 10

Answers

Answer:

39.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's figure out the equations of l and m first.

For line l, we see that the coordinates (0, 5) and (3, 0) are on the line. The equation of a line is y = mx + b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

We can find the slope, which is the difference in the y-coordinates divided by the difference in the x-coordinates:

m = slope = (5 - 0) / (0 - 3) = 5/-3 = -5/3

The y-intercept of a line is the place where the line crosses the y-axis. For line l, it is at (0, 5), so b = 5. Our equation is thus: y = (-5/3)x + 5.

For line m, we see that the coordinates (0, 2) and (7, 0) are on the line. The slope is:

m = slope = (2 - 0) / (0 - 7) = 2/-7 = -2/7

The y-intercept is at (0, 2), so b = 2. Our equation is hence: y = (-2/7)x + 2.

Taking the two equations, let's set 15 equal to y and solve for x:

y = (-5/3)x + 5  ⇒  15 = (-5/3)x + 5  ⇒  10 = (-5/3)x  ⇒  x = -6

y = (-2/7)x + 2  ⇒  15 = (-2/7)x + 2  ⇒  13 = (-2/7)x  ⇒  x = -91/2

Let's find the difference:

-6 - (-91/2) = 39.5

The answer is thus 39.5.

The expression is 8x + 2, and the weight is 50 pounds. E. The expression is 8(x + 2), and the weight is 64 pounds. Reset Next

Answers

Answer: E. The expression is 8(x + 2), and the weight is 64 pounds.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Number of machine parts in a batch = 8

weight of packaging for each part = 2  pounds

Let  x be the weight of each part ( in pounds).

Weight of each part with packaging = x+2

Then, Total weight of the parts and their packaging =  (Number of machine parts) x (Weight of each part with packaging )

= 8(x+2)

If each part weighs 6 pounds, then put x= 6

Total weight of the parts and their packaging =  8(6+2)

= 8 x 8 = 64 pounds

Hence, If each part weighs 6 pounds, then the total weight of the shipment will be 64 pounds .

Here is what we know:

8 machine parts

each part = x pouunds

packaging for each part is 2 pounds so 16 pounds for packaging

If y=total weight wiith that information we can form this equation

y=8x + 16

If each part equals 6 pounds the total shipment will be

y=8x+16

y=8(6) + 16

y= 48 + 16

y=64
