Ricardo and John start swimming from the same location. Ricardo starts 15 seconds before John and swims at a rate of 3 feet per second. John swims at a rate of 4 feet per second in the same direction as Ricardo. which equation could you solve to find how long it would take John to catch up with Ricardo?A. 4t+3=3t
B. 4t+60=3t
C. 3t+3=4t
D. 3t+45=4t

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: speed=distance / time; ⇒distance=speed *  time
Distance traveled by Ricardo
Distance (Ricardo)= (3 ft / s) * 15s+3 ft/s * time=45 ft+3 ft/s*t=45+3t

Distance traveled by John:
Distance(John)=(4 ft/s) * time=4t

Distance traveled by Ricardo=Distance traveled by John
3t+45=4t

Answer: D.  3t+45=4t

Answers

Subtract 2m on both sides, which leaves you with 7m=-28, divde -28 with 7 and equals to -4
-4=M
9m-28=2m
9m-28-2m=2m-2m
(9m-2m)-28=0
7m-28=0
7m-28+28=0+28
7m=28
(7m)/7 = 28/7

Answers

I'll teach you how to distribute −2x(−10x+1)

----------------------------------------------------

−2x(−10x+1)

Apply the distributive law:

Ex. of distributive law:

a(b+c)= ab+ac

-2x(-10x)+(-2x)*1

Apply minus/plus rule:

2*10xx-2*1*x

Simplify 2*10xx-2*1*x:

2*10xx= 20x^2

2*1*x= 2x

20x^2-2x

Your Answer Is 20x^2-2x

Jordan made a wooden square box, all sides of the wooden box are 6cm. If he wants to increase the length of all sides by 1.6, what will be perimeter and area of the new box? thanks so much:)

Answers

Answer:

Perimeter of the new box is 30.4 cm

Area of the new box is 57.76 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

Jordan made a wooden square box, all sides of the wooden box are 6cm. If he wants to increase the length of all sides by 1.6, what will be perimeter and area of the new box?

From the question; all the side of the wooden box is 6 cm, if she increases all  side by 1.6, then the sides become; 6 cm + 1.6 cm = 7.6 cm

Since all the sides are 7.6 cm, then perimeter =  L + L + L + L

                                                                =7.6cm +7.6cm +7.6cm+7.6cm

                                                                  =30.4cm

or                                                          

perimeter of a square = 4L

                 = 4 × 7.6cm

                  = 30.4 cm

Therefore the perimeter of the new box is  30.4 cm

To find the area;

l = 7.6 cm

Area of a square = l × l

                           = 7.6 cm × 7.6 cm

                          =57.76 cm²

Therefore area of the new box is  57.76 cm²

6 + 1.6 = 7.6 

perimeter = 7.6 x 4 = 30.4

Area = 7.6 x 7.6 = 57.76
