Ruben is driving along a highway that passes through Barstow. His distance d, in miles, from Barstow is given by the equation
d = |210 − 60t|,
where t is the time, in hours, since the start of his trip and
0 ≤ t ≤ 5.
When will Ruben be exactly 90 miles from Barstow?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

after 2 hours, andafter 5 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that Ruben's distance from Barstow is d = |210 -60t|, you want to know the time t when he is exactly 90 miles from Barstow.

Setup

The absolute value will be 90 when the argument of the function is either -90 or +90.

The question resolves to two equations:

210 -60t = -90210 -60t = 90

Solution

These two-step linear equations can be solved in the usual way:

-60t = -300 . . . . subtract 210-60t = -120

Then ...

t = -300/-60 = 5 . . . . divide by the coefficient of tt = -120/-60 = 2

Ruben is 90 miles from Barstow after driving 2 hours, and again after driving 5 hours.

The mural in the art gallery is 7 meters tall. It's 69 centimeters taller than the marble sculpture. How tall is the sculpture?

Answers

Mural Height = 7 meters

Find the height of the marble sculpture if the mural is 69 centimeters taller.

Solution:

Convert the height of the mural into centimeters to easily calculate how tall it is from the marble sculpture.

1 meter = 100 cm

7 meters = 700 cm

Subtract 69 cm from 700 cm in order to get the height of the marble sculpture.

700cm - 69 cm = 631 cm

Convert 631 cm into meters by dividing it with 100.

=631 /100

= 6.31 m

The height of the mural is 6.31 m

Answer:

  C.  1889

Step-by-step explanation:

Given fixed weekly costs of $3778 and a variable cost per handle of $1, you want to know how many handles must be produced weekly for sale at $3 each to break even.

Contribution margin

The "contribution margin" of each handle is the difference between its variable cost and its selling price:

  $3 -1 = $2

Break even

The enterprise will break even when the sum of contribution margins is equal to the fixed costs. If h is the number of handles produced and sold, then to break even, we must have ...

  2h = 3778

  h = 1889

1889 handles must be molded weekly to break even.

__

Additional comment

You get the same result if you write the profit equation and solve for the number of handles that makes profit be zero.

  profit = revenue -cost

  0 = (3h) -(3778 +1h)

  3778 = 2h . . . . . as above

  1889 = h

A dish containing bacteria has a diameter of 0.0001 kilometer. The diameter of a bacterium is 10^-16 How many times larger is the diameter of the dish than the diameter of the bacterium

Answers

For a dish that is containing bacteria has a diameter of 0.0001 kilometer. The diameter of a bacterium is 10^-16, the number of times that the diameter would be larger is 10¹² times.

How to solve for the diameter

We have the diameter of the dish to be 0.0001

This is the same as 10⁻⁴

The bacterium has the diameter at 10^-16

The difference between the diameter of the dish than the bacterium would be solved by

1 x 10⁻⁴ / 10^-16

= 10¹²

Hence we would have to say that for a dish that is containing bacteria has a diameter of 0.0001 kilometer. The diameter of a bacterium is 10^-16, the number of times that the diameter would be larger is 10¹² times.

In this given sum we are provided with the values of principal , rate of interest , and the number of years , we are asked to calculate the amount payable after 4 years that is the matured amount which is calculated with the addition of the principal amount and the simple interest. For that we had to first find out the amount of interest and then we need to add that with the principal amount to get the matured amount or the amount that is payable at the end of 4 years.

here we have to apply the formulla of simmple interest :

(principal × rate of interest × no. of years )/ 100

In the given sum principal (p) = 350 , rate of interest (r) = 4% pa , no. of years (n) = 4

Calculate the percent of each type of snake. Use the percent that you find and multiply each times 360° to
find the number of degrees for each sector.

I need help solving the percent and degree

Answers

Percent of vipers is 20% and its degree is 72 degrees.

Percent of colubrids is 46% and its degree is 165.60 degrees.

Percent of elapids is 18% and its degree is 64.80 degrees.

Percent of giant snakes is 16% and its degree is 57.60 degrees.

How we do calculate the percent and degree?

The percent can be calculated as follows:

Percent of vipers = (Number of vipers / Total number of snakes) * 100 = (10 / 50) * 100 = 0.20 * 100 = 20%

Percent of colubrids = (Number of colubrids / Total number of snakes) * 100 = (23 / 50) * 100 = 0.46 * 100 = 46%

Percent of elapids = (Number of elapids / Total number of snakes) * 100 = (9 / 50) * 100 = 0.18 * 100 = 18%

Percent of giant snakes = (Number of giant snakes / Total number of snakes) * 100 = (8 / 50) * 100 = 0.16 * 100 = 16%

The degrees can be calculated as follows:

Degree of vipers = Percent of vipers * 360 = 20% * 360 = 72 degree

Degree of colubrids = Percent of colubrids * 360 = 46% * 360 = 165.60 degree

Degree of elapids = Percent of elapids* 360 = 18% * 360 = 64.80 degree

before leaving to visit Mexico, Levant traded 270 American dollars and received 3,000 Mexican pesos. when he returned from Mexico, he had 100 pesos left. How much will he receive when he exchanges these pesos for dollars?.​

Answers

He will receive $ 9 when he exchanges 100 pesos for American dollars.

We are given that:

Levant received 3000 Mexican pesos for 270 American dollars.

So, by using the unitary method, we will calculate the rate of 1 Mexican pesos for American dollars.

So, we get that:

3000 Mexican pesos = $ 270

1 Mexican Peso = $ 270 / 3000

1 Mexican Peso = 0.09

Now, we are also given that Levan has 100 pesos left.

So,

100 pesos = $ 0.09 × 100

100 pesos = $ 9

Start with the graph of the absolute value function. Stretch it by a factor of 3 and shift 2 units up.

Answers

The absolute value function of the given expression is g(x) = 3*Ix + 2I.

What is the role of absolute value?

The absolute value function is often assumed to provide the number's distance from zero on a number line. Algebraically, the output is really the value without respect to sign regardless of what the input value is.

According to the given data:

Let's define transformations in broad strokes.

A vertical stretch with scale factor A is denoted by:

g(x) = A*f(x)

A vertical shift in A units is denoted by:

g(x) = f(x) + A

If A is positive, the shift is positive; if A is negative, the shift is negative.

A horizontal shift in A units is denoted by:

g(x) = f(x - A)

If A is greater than zero, the shift is toward the right.

The shift  to the left if A is negative.

Then we begin with the maximum value parental function f(x) = IxI.

"The graph of both the absolute value parent function has been stretched vertically by a factor of three."

we can start with:

g(x) = 3*f(x)

"then shifted two units left"

g(x) = 3*f(x - (-2))

and since f(x) = IxI, they have:

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We know from the question that Fatoumata pays a flat cost of $59 per month and $3 per gigabyte.

If we consider [tex]x[/tex] to be the number of gigabytes she uses in a month, then her bill every month can be represented by the following expression:

[tex]59 + 3x[/tex] .

We are told that the bill has to be kept under $75. Therefore:

[tex]59 + 3x < 75[/tex]

This inequality can be used to solve for [tex]x[/tex], and so we can use it to find the maximum number of gigabytes she can use while keeping the bill under $75.

The inequality for the maximum number of gigabytes Fatoumata can use while staying within her budget will be equal to $59 + $3(x) < $75.
