Average speed of Car 1 = 45 mph.Average speed of Car 2 = 65 mph.
Time elapsed between start of Car 1 and start of Car 2 = 18 minutes.

B. 0.53
C. 0.58

Answer: ok, note to a mod who deleted my answer, it would have been nice to ask for correction first (or maybe I wasn't online long enough to see?) so I can improve and see what went wrong



how long before car2overtakes car1,

since car2 is faster than car1, we assume that car1 left first
it left 18 minutes first

find how much distance that is
45 times hours=distance
60minsperhour
45 times 18/45=distance=13.5
headstart of 13.5miles

so

their distances are reprsetned by

45h+13.5=car1distance at h hours AFTER 18 minutes
65h=car2 disstance at h hours AFTER 18 minutes

when will distance be same?
set equal to each other

45h+13.5=65h
minus 45h both sides
13.5=20h
divide oth side by 20
0.675=h
0.675 hours

we round
0.68

answer is 0.68 hours
(note again, if  you want to delete my answer or see something wrong with this answer, tell me what it is so I can improve and learn (or maybe I can show you where you are wrong))

What is the parallel to the line x=15 and contains the point (-1,5)

Answers

Look\ at\ the\ picture.\n\nx=-1\ is\ parallel\ to\ the\ x=15\ and\ contains\ the\ point\ (-1;\ 5)
The line x=15 is the line parallel to the axis OY.
So the paralel lines to the line x=15 are  parallel  to the axis OY, so their equations are  x=a,  where "a"  is a real number. 
Here you've got point (-1,5) so x-coordinate is x=-1, 
So equation this line  is x=-1

What characteristics best describe the graph? Choose all that apply. *

Answers

Answer:

Options (1), (3) and (7)

Step-by-step explanation:

Characteristics of the given graph are as followed.

1). For every input value (x-value) there is a different output values (y-values).

   So the points on the graph represent a function.

2). Coordinates of all the points are distinct and separate (not in fractions or decimals).

    Function given is a discrete function.

3). For every increase in the x-values of the points there is a decrease in y-values.

  Therefore, given function is a decreasing function.

Therefore, Options (1), (3) and (7) are the correct options.

Of the following numbers which one is prime 14 13 21 33

Answers

Answer:

13 is the prime number

Step-by-step explanation:

You must take into account that a prime number is one that is just divisible by 1 and itself. So, let's analyse each number.

Number 14

If you divide 14 by 1 you obtain 14.

If you divide 14 by 14 you obtain 1.

If you divide 14 by 2 you obtain 7.

If you divide 14 by 7 you obtain 2.

14 is not prime because is divisible by 1, 2, 7, and 14

Number 13

If you divide 13 by 1 you obtain 13.

If you divide 13 by 13 you obtain 1.

13 is a prime number because it can't be divided by other number, just 1 and itself

Number 21

If you divide 21 by 1 you obtain 21.

If you divide 21 by 21 you obtain 1.

If you divide 21 by 3 you obtain 7.

If you divide 21 by 7 you obtain 3.

21 is not prime because is divisible by 1, 3, 7, and 21

Number 33

If you divide 33 by 1 you obtain 33.

If you divide 33 by 33 you obtain 1.

If you divide 33 by 3 you obtain 11.

If you divide 33 by 11 you obtain 3.

33 is not prime because is divisible by 1, 3, 11, and 33

Thus, 13 is the prime number

A prime number is a number which is only divisible by itself and 1.
No even numbers can be primes because they are all divisible by 2.
Therefore, 14 is not a prime number. 
21 ÷ 3 = 7
33 ÷ 3 = 11
That leaves 13.

13 is a prime number. 


Line JK passes through points J(–4, –5) and K(–6, 3). If the equation of the line is written in slope-intercept form, y = mx + b, what is the value of b?–21

Answers

If the equation of the line is written in slope-intercept form, y = mx + b, then the value of b is -21 and is denoted as option A.

What is Slope?

This is also referred to as the gradient of a line and measures its steepness and direction.

Slope = (y₂ - y₁) / (x₂ - x₁)

Parameters

J(-4, -5) and K(-6, 3)

= (3 - (-5)) / (-6 - (-4))

= (3 + 5) / (-6 + 4)

= 8 / -2

= -4

Substitute one of the coordinates into the formula to solve for b

y = mx + b

y = -4x + b

3 = -4(-6) + b

3 = 24 + b

3 - 24 = b

b = - 21

#SPJ9

Find the slope that passes between the points.

(y₂ - y₁) / (x₂ - x₁)

J(-4, -5)

K(-6, 3)

(3 - (-5)) / (-6 - (-4))

(3 + 5) / (-6 + 4)

8 / -2

-4

Now slap that slope into the formula and substitute on of the coordinates to the formula to solve for b (I'll take point K's coordinate):

y = mx + b

y = -4x + b

3 = -4(-6) + b

3 = 24 + b

3 - 24 = b

- 21 = b

b = -21

In a class of 60 students, 5 recieved a grade of A. What fraction of the class did not recieve a grade of A. Reduce in lowest terms

Answers

Ok so if 5 people got an a that means 55 did not receive an a so do 55 over 60 ok they both have a 5 in common 5 goes into 55 11 times and5 goes into 60 12 times so your answer is 11/12
60 minus 5 = 55 
55/60 simplified = divide both by 5 = 11/12
