a driver of a car took a day trip around the coastline driving at two different speeds. he drove 50 miles at a slower speed and 300​ miles at a speed 20 miles per hour faster. if the time spent driving at the faster speed was thrice that spent driving at the slower​ speed, find the two speeds during the trip.

Answers

Answer 1

The slower speed is 20 miles per hour and the higher speed is 40 miles per hour.

time is calculated using the formula

[tex]Time=\frac{Distance}{Speed}[/tex]

In the given question

driver drove 50 miles at slower speed.

Let the slower speed be x miles per hour.

So the time taken to cover 50 miles at slower speed = [tex]\frac{50}{x}[/tex]    ...(i)

driver drove 300 miles at faster speed.

given speed is 20 miles per hour faster i.e. speed = (x+20) miles per hour So the time taken to cover 300 miles at (x+20) mph speed = [tex]\frac{300}{(x+20)}[/tex]....(ii)

According to the question

the time spent driving at the faster speed was thrice that spent driving at the slower​ speed.

From equation (i) and (ii) we get

[tex]3*(\frac{50}{x} )=\frac{300}{x+20}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{150}{x} =\frac{300}{x+20}[/tex]

Cross Multiplying we get

[tex]150(x+20)=300x\\ \\ 150x+3000=300x\\ \\ 300x-150x=3000\\ \\ 150x=3000\\ \\ x=20[/tex]

Slower speed = x = 20mph.

Faster speed = (x+20) = 20+20 = 40mph.

Therefore , The slower speed is 20 miles per hour and the higher speed is 40 miles per hour.

ln e³

Answers

ln e³ = 3, by definition and properties of logarithm.

What is Logarithm?The opposite of exponentiation is the logarithm.This indicates that the exponent to which a fixed number, base b, must be raised in order to obtain a specific number x, is represented by the logarithm of that number.A number's natural logarithm is its logarithm to the base of the transcendental and irrational number e, which is roughly equivalent to 2.718281828459.

Now,

As seen by the definition of logarithms, [tex]log_b(a)=x[/tex]

In case of natural logarithm, b = e, i.e., [tex]log_e(a)[/tex] = ln (a) = x

In the question, ln (e)³, a = e

By property of logarithms, [tex]log_b(a^m) = m(log_b(a))[/tex] ,

=> 3 (ln (e)) = 3 [tex]log_e(e)[/tex]

Since, [tex]log_e(e)[/tex] = 1, ln (e)³ = 3 (1) = 3.

Hence, ln e³ = 3, by definition and properties of logarithm.

Answers

Values of x are 0, 6 + 48i/2 and 6 - 48i/2.

3 + [tex]{(4 - x)}^{3/2}[/tex]= 11

Subtracting 3 on both sides of the equation, we get

3 + [tex]{(4 - x)}^{3/2}[/tex]- 3 = 11  - 3

[tex]{(4 - x)}^{3/2}[/tex]  = 8

Squaring both the sides of the equation, we get

[tex] {(4 - x)^{3/2 \times 2} }[/tex] = 8²

(4 - x)³ = 64

Using the identity (a - b)³ = a³ + b³ + 3a²b - 3ab², we get

4³ + x³ + 3×4²x - 3×4×x² = 64

64 + x³ + 48x - 12x² = 64

x³ - 12x² + 48 = 0

Taking x common from the above equation, we get

x(x² - 12x + 48) = 0

x = 0 and x² - 12x + 48

Sovling the quadratic equation x² - 12x + 48, we get

x = -b+✓(b² - 4ac)/2a and  -b-✓(b² - 4ac)/2a

x =  -(-12)+✓((-12)² - 4(1)(48))/2(1) and -(-12)-✓((-12)² - 4(1)(48))/2(1)

x = 12+✓(144-192)/2 and 12-✓(144-192)/2

x = 12+✓-48/2 and  12-✓-48/2

x = 12+✓48i/2 and 12-✓48i/2

x = 6+✓48i/2 and 6-✓48i/2

Thus, the values of x are 0, 6+✓48i/2 and 6-✓48i/2

Answers

The scale factor from shape B to shape A is 4.

Step 1: To determine the scale factor, we need to know the dimensions of the shape before scaling and its dimensions after scaling. From the given diagram, figure A has a base length of 36 units and another base of length  28 units. Figure B has a base length of 9 units and another base length is 7 units.

Step 2: To find the scale factor, we divide a particular dimension from figure B with the same dimension in figure A.

Based on the triangle midsegment theorem, the length of HI is: 8 units.

What is the Midsegment of a Triangle?

Every triangle has three midsegments. A midsegment of a triangle can be described as the segment that intersects two sides of a triangle at their midpoint.

For example, in the diagram given, the midsegments in triangle GHI are segments JL, KL, and JK.

What is the Triangle Midsegment Theorem?

According to the triangle midsegment theorem:

JL = 1/2(HI)

KL = 1/2(HG)

JK = 1/2(GI)

Given that, JL = 4 units, applying the triangle midsegment theorem, we would have:

JL = 1/2(HI)

4 = 1/2(HI)

Multiply both sides by 2

2(4) = 1/2(HI)(2) [multiplication property]
