7.60. When Paul crossed the finish line of a 60-meter race, he was ahead of Robert by 10 meters and ahead of Sam by 20 meters. Suppose Robert and Sam continue to race to the finish line without changing their rates of speed. By how many meters will Robert beat Sam?
Hint: By how many meters would Robert beat Sam if the race were 50 meters? 100 meters? 150 meters?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The number of meters Robert will beat Sam is 12 meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

When Paul crossed the finish line of a 60-meter race, he was ahead of Robert by 10 meters and ahead of Sam by 20 meters. Suppose Robert and Sam continue to race to the finish line without changing their rates of speed.

Find:

the number of meters by which Robert will beat Sam

Step 1 of 1

When Paul finishes, Robert has run 60-10=50 meters and Sam has run 60-20=40 meters.

Therefore, when Robert and Sam run for the same amount of time, Sam covers \($\frac{40}{50}=\frac{4}{5}$\) of the distance that Robert covers. So, while Robert runs the final 10 meters of the race, Sam runs \($\frac{4}{5} \cdot 10=8$\) meters.

This means Robert's lead over Sam increases by 2 more meters, and he beats Sam by 10+2=12 meters.

If triangle ABC is translated 2 units up and 2 units right, that means that all the vertices of the triangle are translated by the same units 2 up and 2 right.

The angle sum property of a triangle;

80 + 26 + B = 180

B = 180 - 106

B = 74

So, the answer is 74  degrees.

Michelle has a fair number cube. Each face has a different number from 1 through 6. She will roll the number cube twice. What is the probability that she will roll an even number on the first roll and a 5 on the second roll?

Answers

Probability is 1/12.

Explanation:

So the chance that she will roll an even number on her first roll is 3 out of 6, or simplified 1 out of 2. On her second roll, the probability that she will roll a 5 is 1 out of 6. To roll these both as a pair consecutively, you would need to multiply their probabilities. You do \(\frac{1}{2}\) x \(\frac{1}{6}\)  which is equal to \(\frac{1}{12}\) .

TYVM!!

Answers

Answer:

81

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the relationships \(a \propto y^2\) and \(b \propto \frac{1}{y}\), let's solve for the proportionality constants and then use them to find \(x\) when \(y = 4\).

From the given values:

1. When \(x = 18\) and \(y = 2\), we have \(a + b + 4 = 18\).

2. When \(x = -3\) and \(y = 1\), we have \(a + b + 4 = -3\).

We can set up two equations using the given proportionalities and the given values:

Equation 1: \(a = ky^2\)

Equation 2: \(b = \frac{c}{y}\)

Substituting these into the first given condition:

\(ky^2 + \frac{c}{y} + 4 = 18\)

Substituting these into the second given condition:

\(ky^2 + \frac{c}{y} + 4 = -3\)

Solving these two equations will allow us to find the constants \(k\) and \(c\), and then we can use them to find \(x\) when \(y = 4\).

Let's solve the equations:

From the first equation:

\(k(2^2) + \frac{c}{2} + 4 = 18\)

\(4k + \frac{c}{2} + 4 = 18\)

\(4k + \frac{c}{2} = 14\)

From the second equation:

\(k(1^2) + \frac{c}{1} + 4 = -3\)

\(k + c + 4 = -3\)

\(k + c = -7\)

Now we have a system of two equations:

1. \(4k + \frac{c}{2} = 14\)

2. \(k + c = -7\)

Solve the second equation for \(k\): \(k = -c - 7\)

Substitute this into the first equation:

\(4(-c - 7) + \frac{c}{2} = 14\)

\(-4c - 28 + \frac{c}{2} = 14\)

\(-8c - 56 + c = 28\)

\(-7c = 84\)

\(c = -12\)

Substitute \(c\) back into \(k + c = -7\):

\(k - 12 = -7\)

\(k = 5\)

Now that we have \(k\) and \(c\), we can determine the values of \(a\) and \(b\) using the given proportionalities:

\(a = 5y^2\)

\(b = \frac{-12}{y}\)

Finally, substitute these values of \(a\), \(b\), and \(y\) into the equation \(x = a + b + 4\) to find \(x\) when \(y = 4\):

\(x = 5(4^2) + \frac{-12}{4} + 4\)

\(x = 80 - 3 + 4\)

\(x = 81\)

So, when \(y = 4\), \(x\) is 81.
