Answer:
System of equations:
20x + 30y = 650
x + y = 25
Time underwater = 10 hours
Time at the surface = 15 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x = time underwater at 20 km/h.
Let y = time on the surface at 30 km/h.
speed = distance/time
distance = speed * time
distance underwater: 20x
distance on the surface: 30y
total distance: 650
20x + 30y = 650
total time: x + y
total time: 25
x + y = 25
20x + 30y = 650
x + y = 25
20x + 30y = 650
-20x - 20y = -500
--------------------------------
10y = 150
y = 15
x + y = 25
x + 15 = 25
x = 10
Answer:
x = -26
Step-by-step explanation:
Multiply both sides by the lowest common multiple of 4 and 3, which is 12.
3(x+2) = 4(x+8)
3x + 6 = 4x + 32 --- distribute the 4 and 3
6 = x + 32 --- subtract 3x from both sides
-26 = x --- subtract 32 from both sides
x = -26
Answer:
a) False. Because you can live in California AND watch American Idol at the same time
b) True. Because the number of patients is a whole number, like 1, 2 or 3. There is no 1.5 patient
c) False. The actual probability should become closer to the theoretical probablity
d) True
5B + B = 20
6B = 20
B = 20 / 6
= 10/ 3 hrs
A = 5 ( 10/3 + 2)
= 5 (16/3)
= 80 / 3 hrs
Brian traveled 10/3 hours and Annie traveled 80/3 hours.
