The speed limit on a road drops down to 15 miles per hour around a curve. Mr. Gerard slows down by 10 miles per hour as he drives around the curve. He never drives above the speed limit. At what speed (s) was Mr. Gerard driving before the curve? Write and solve an inequality

Answers

Answer 1

Answer Mr. Gerard speed was at most 25 miles per hour before the curve

Step-by-step explanation:

How to solve the speed Mr. Gerard was driving before the curve

Let’s just assume that Gerard went exactly the speed limit 15 miles per hour (mph) after when he slowed down by 10 miles per hour and drove around the curve. The reason why I’m using exactly 15mph is because it’s the max speed he can go. He can go 15 miles per hour and still be safe, but it’s just that he can’t go any faster than that.

Now, you can do 15 + 10 to find the speed he went before he drove around the curve. So, that would be 25mph before he drove around the curve.

You might be asking: What if he went slower than 25mph before he drove around the curve, and what if he went faster than 25mph?

-When he drives exactly 25mph and slows down by 10mph when he makes the turn around the curve, he’s going exactly 15mph which it safe for him because it’s not faster than 15mph.

-It could be possible that he went slower than 25mph before he drove around the curve, but he still will be safe because when he makes the turn around the curve and slows down by 10 miles per hour, now he’ll reach below 15 miles per hour which is even safer for him. Here’s an example for you to understand: Let’s say he drove 23mph before the curve (which is less than 25mph). As soon as he makes the turn around the curve, he slows down by 10mph. So after he goes around the curve, he’s going 13mph, which is less than the speed limit 15mph. You can take any number less than 25mph and he’ll still be safe because it will be less than 15mph.

-Now, if he went faster than 25mph, he wouldn’t be safe anymore because after when he slows down by 10mph and goes around the curve, he’ll be above the speed limit of 15mph. Here’s an example for you to understand: Let’s say he drove 27mph before the curve (which is faster than 25mph). As soon as he makes the turn around the curve, he slows down by 10mph. So after he goes around the curve, he’s going 17mph, which is faster than the speed limit 15mph.

Answer: Mr. Gerard speed was at most 25 miles per hour before the curve

Graphing it

A way to graph this is to write out a compound inequality. You can write it as:

0 < y ≤ 25  ⇒ Where any speed has to be less than or equal to 25 miles per hour, because 25 miles per hour is the most/biggest speed Mr. Gerard can drive. But it has to be greater than 0 because you can’t go negative miles per hour, or 0 miles per hour

The graph is shown below ↓

I don’t know what graph you want, or how your teacher wants you to graph it. So I put two options for you :)

I hope you understand and that this helps with your question! :)

Given that,
Which equation represents a line parallel to the line whose equation is 2y - 5x = 10 is to be determined.

What is the slope of the line?

The slope of the line is a tangent angle made by line with horizontal. i.e. m =tanx where x in degrees.

Here,
The property of the parallel line state that the slope of the parallel line are always equal.
So the slope of line given in B 4y - 10x = 12 is m = 5 and slope of the given line is m = 5 which are equal.

What is the equation of a line that is parallel to 2x +3y = 3 and passes through the point (3, -4) ?

Answers

Answer:

2x + 3y = -6

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the new line will be identical to that of the given line except that the constant term will differ.

Start with the given 2x + 3y = 3 and replace x with 3 and y with -4.  We get:

2(3) + 3(-4) = C, and C = 6 - 12 = -6

The equation of the new line is therefore 2x + 3y = -6

A bridge spans a distance of 1012m. Large cables are attached to the tops of the towers, 45 m above the road. The road is suspended from the large cables by many smaller vertical cables. The smallest vertical cable measures about 1.5m. Determine a quadratic equation for the large cables.

Answers

Answer:

A quadratic equation for the large cables is [tex]f(x) = \dfrac{87 }{512072} \cdot x^2 + 1.5[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The shape of the quadratic equation representing the large cables is a parabola

Taking the point of the smallest vertical cables as the vertex, (h, k) with coordinates, (0, 1.5), we have;

h = -b/(2·a)

∴ 0 = -b/(2·a), from which we have, b = 2·a × 0 = 0

k = 1.5 = c - (b²/(4·a) = c - (0/(4·a)) = c

∴ c = 1.5

The standard form of the quadratic equation, a·(x - h)² + k is therefore, given as follows;

f(x) = a·(x - 0)² + 1.5 = a·x² + 1.5

At the towers which are on either side of the bridge, when x = 1012/2 = 506, f(x) = y = 45

Therefore, we have;

45 = a·506² + 1.5

a = (45 - 1.5)/506² = 87/512072 ≈ 1.699 × 10⁻⁴

The quadratic equation for the large cables, f(x), can therefore be presented as follows;

[tex]f(x) = \dfrac{87 }{512072} \cdot x^2 + 1.5[/tex]

A company has offices in 3 different cities and a rotal of 480 workers there are 90 workers in newyork and 130 workers in denver the rest of the workers are in san diego

Answers

Answer:

Workers in San Diego = 260 workers

Step-by-step explanation:

Total workers = 480

Number of offices = 3

In each office in different cities

New york = 90 workers

Denver = 130 workers

San Diego = x workers

Find x

Total number of workers = workers in New York + workers in Denver + workers in San Diego

480 = 90 + 130 + x

480 = 220 + x

480 - 220 = x

260 = x

x = 260 workers

Workers in San Diego = 260 workers

translated to the right 5 units and up 50 units.

Answers

Answer:

f(x) = -100(1.05)^(x+5) + 50

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to write an equation that represents the transformation

5 units right means 5 units on the positive x-axis

50 units up means we add this to the total y value

So the resulting equation will be;

f(x) = -100(1.05)^(x+5) + 50

Two students are reading a book. Keith reads 6 pages a day. Tameka reads 5 pages a day, but he starts sooner and has already read 15 pages. Write a system of equations to represent the situation, using d for days and p for pages.

Answers

Answer:

P = 6d ; P = 5d + 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Keith = 6 pages per day

Tameka = 5 pages per day

Tameka has already read 15 pages

If d = Number of days ; p = pages read

Keith :

Pages read, p = pages read per day * Number of days, d

P = 6d

Tameka :

Pages read, p = (pages read per day * Number of days, d) + pages read already

P = 5d + 15

The system of equations to represent the number of pages read per day by Keith and Tameka, using d for days and p for pages are,

[tex]\\P=6d[/tex]

[tex]P=5d+15[/tex]

What is the system of equation?

A system of equation is the set of equation in which the finite set of equation is present for which the common solution is sought.
