Clayton drove at a constant rate on the highway for a trip to the beach. He did not make any stops along the way. The distance Clayton had driven at any given time describes a linear function. At 3:00 p.m., he had driven 90 miles. At 4:30 p.m., he had driven 180 miles. Which statement about Clayton’s trip is true?1.Clayton started driving at 1:30 p.m., and he drove 60 miles per hour.


2.Clayton started driving at 3:00 p.m., and he drove 60 miles per hour.



3.Clayton started driving at 1:30 p.m., and he drove 90 miles per hour.


4.Clayton started driving at 4:30 p.m., and he drove 90 miles per hour.

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

The answer is the first 1 !!

Here is how we see if it is true!

If Clayton drives 60 miles per hour, that means, that after one hour has passed, they should have traveled 60 miles!

If we look at the number of hours that have passed between 1:30 and 4:30, it is 3 hours.

If someone travels 60 miles every hour that has passed, and they traveled for 3 hours. To find how far they have traveled we just need to multiply 60 miles by 3 hours!

Let's solve that!

60 × 3 = 180 miles!

Clayton started driving at 1:30 pm and went 60 miles per hour.

The volume of the sphere : ( r = 4.8 m )
V = 4/3 r³ π = 4/3 · ( 4.8 m )³ · 3.14 = 4/3 · 110.592 · 3.14 = 463.01 m³
Answer: A ) 463.01 m³
What is the exact volume of the sphere?

Answer: since you did not provide the sphere in order to find the volume there is no way to find the volume. In order to find the volume if a sphere we simply have to use the following formula : v = ¾(Pi)r³.

On a Saturday, the ratio of the amount of water used by household A to the amount of water use by household B was 13 : 5. Household A used 260 gallons of water for that day. Find the total amount of water used by the two household on that Saturday.

Answers

Answer:the total amount of water used by the two households on that Saturday is 360 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the total amount of water used by the two households on that Saturday. On that Saturday, the ratio of the amount of water used by household A to the amount of water use by household B was 13 : 5. The total ratio is 13 + 5 = 18

The amount of water used by household A would be

13/18 × total amount of water.

The amount of water used by household B would be

5/18 × total amount of water.

Since household A used 260 gallons of water for that day, it means that

13/18 × x = 260

13x = 260×18 = 4680

x = 4680/13 = 360

Solve for x: 45>4x+9 53≤4x+9

Answers

Answer:

The system of inequalities 45 > 4x + 9 and 53 ≤ 4x + 9 doesn't have any solution, because the restrictions on x are contradictory (x can't be both less than 9 and greater than or equal to 11).

Step-by-step explanation:

These are a set of compound inequalities. Let's solve these equations step by step. The first inequality 45 > 4x + 9, we start to solve it by subtracting 9 from both sides of the inequality, which gives us 36 > 4x. Then, we divide each side by 4 to get x < 9.

The second inequality is 53 ≤ 4x + 9. We solve this by subtracting 9 from both sides to get 44 ≤ 4x. Then, we divide each side by 4 to find x ≥ 11.

However, these two results are contradictory (as x cannot be both less than 9 and greater than or equal to 11 simultaneously). So, there is no solution to this system of inequalities.
