The distance, y, Miranda travels while cross-country skiing, y, her distance traveled, varies directly with the amount of time, x, that she skis. Suppose Miranda skis 10 miles (the y coordinate) in 2 hours (the x coordinate).
A. What is the speed in miles per hour that Miranda is traveling?

B. Use your answer for (A) to write a direct linear variation equation relating this information.

C. How far will Miranda go in 3 hours?

D. If she travels 20 miles, how long did she ski? This one is worked out backward, be careful!

Answers

Answer 1

Using the principle of direct variation, the solution to the problem given are :

5 miles per hour d = 5t15 miles 4 hours

Given the Parameters :

Distance = d

Amount of time = t

d α t ; d = kt

We can find k = constant of proportionality = speed of travel ;

d = 10 miles ; t = 2 hours

10 = 2k

k = 10/2

k = 5

Hence, speed = 5 miles per hour

B.) The direct linear variation expression becomes ;

d = 5t

C.) Distance traveled in 3 hours :

t = 3 hours

d = 5t

d = 5(3) = 15 miles

D. Time taken to travel a distance of 20 miles

d = 5t

20 = 5t

t = 20/5

t = 4 hours

Therefore, it will take 4 hours to travel a distance of 20 miles.

The area of a bulletin board is 90 ft. The length is nine feet less than four times the width. Find the length and the width, in feet, of the bulletin board.
width
ft
length
ft
+

Answers

Area (A) = 90 ft
Width = x
Length = 4x - 9

A = L*W, so the equation is:
x(4x - 9) = 90

Solve:
4x^2 - 9x = 90
4x^2 - 9x - 90 = 0
(4x + 15)(x - 6) = 0
4x + 15 = 0
4x = - 15
x = -15/4
^^^ reject because distance can’t be negative
x - 6 = 0
x = 6 ft (width)

Length = 4x - 9
L = 4(6) - 9
L = 24 - 9
L = 15 ft

Check:
A = L*W
90 = 15 * 6
90 = 90

Answer: The length is 15 feet and the width is 6 feet.

[tex]y = -3x + 27[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

A parallel line will have the same slope as the given line so we can write the slope-intercept form of the equation as

[tex]y = -3x + b[/tex]

Since the other line goes through the point (9, 0), we can use this to solve for b:

[tex]0 = -3(9) + b \Rightarrow b = 27[/tex]

Therefore, the equation of the parallel line that goes through (9, 0) is

[tex]y = -3x + 27[/tex]

Answer: 41

Step-by-step explanation:

The horizontal line beneath the angle created is always 180 degrees. Because you are given two equations for each angle created, simply write: 180= (3x-3) +(x+19). This gives you 4x+16=180, of which you subtract 16 to 180 which gives you 164. Finally, divide both sides by 4: 4x/4=164/4 and you will get 41. Hopefully I was of aid to you.

and split the numbers in the box - i tried to recreate it as much as possible

oh then in each little box you have to multiply the numbers so

50 x 800 = 40,000 in the box

50 x 20 = 1,000 in the next box

50 x 1 = 50 in the next box

4 x 800 = 3,200

4 x 20 = 80

4 x 1 = 4

then you add all of them which would be 44,334
