Medical researchers have determined that for exercise to be beneficial, a person’s desirable heart rate, R, in beats per minute, can be approximated by the formulasR=143-0.65a for women
R=165-0.75a for men,

where a represents the person’s age. What would the desirable heart rate be for a 46 year old woman?
a. 113 beats per minute
b. 172.9 beats per minute
c. 143.7 beats per minute
d. 63 beats per minute

Answer 1

Answer:

Answer:

Option a is correct.

The desirable heart rate be for a 46 year old woman is, 113 beats per minute.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, R represents a person's desirable heart rate(in beats per minute)

and a represents the person's age.

The desirable heart rate of a person's can be approximated by the formulas;

For women:

$R = 143 - 0.65a$ ......[1]

For men:

$R = 165- 0.75a$ ......[2]

To find the desirable heart rate be for a 46 year old woman.

⇒ $a = 46 \text{years old woman}$

Substitute in [1] we get;

$R = 143 - 0.65(46)=143 -29.9 \approx 113$ beats per minute

Therefore, 113 beats per minute would the desirable heart rate be for a 46 years old woman.

Answer 2

Answer: I would say a) 113 beats per minute:
substituting 46 for a in the formula: R=143-0.65a you should get 113.

15 m

Answers

area=1/2 times bas time height
given that area=10
height=5
find base

10=1/2 times base times 5

20=base times 5
divide oth sides by 5
4=base

the base is 4m

A triangle with vertices at A(0, 0), B(0, 4), and C(6, 0) is dilated to yield a triangle with vertices at A′(0, 0), B′(0, 10), and C′(15, 0)-. The origin is the center of dilation. What is the scale factor of the dilation?

Answers

A triangle ABC is similar to a triangle A´B´C´ The scale factor of the dilatation : s.
0 * s =0
4 * s = 10
6 * s = 15
s= 10/4=15/6=2.5
The scale factor of the dilatation is 2.5. It is shown in the attachment.

The number of plastic straws produced by a machine varies directly as the amount of time the machine is operating. If the machine produces 20,000 straws in 8 hours, how many straws can it produce in 50 hours?

Answers

Given is the direct relationship between number of produced straws and the hours of operating machine.

Given that 20,000 straws are produced in 8 hours of machine's operation.

Let's assume that 'x' straws are produced in 50 hours of machine's operation.

Using the concept of proportions, x straws in 50 hours would be proportional to 2000 straws in 8 hours.

$(X \;straws)/(50 \;hours) =(20,000 \;straws)/(8 \;hours) \n\n(X \;straws)/(20,000 \;straws) =(50 \;hours)/(8 \;hours) \n\n(X)/(20,000) =(50)/(8) \n\nCross \;multiplying \n\n8*X = 50*20000 \n\n8X = 1,000,000 \n\n(8X)/(8) =(1,000,000)/(8) \n\nX=125,000 \;straws$

Hence, total 125,000 straws would be produced in 50 hours.

If f(x)=1/2 x-6 what is the equation for f–1(x)? A. f–1(x) = 2x + 6

B. f–1(x) = 2x – 6

C. f–1(x) = 2(x + 6)

D. f–1(x) = 2(x – 6)

Answers

Answer:

Option C $f^(-1)(x)=2(x+6)$

Step-by-step explanation:

we have that

$f(x)=(1)/(2)x-6$

Let

$y=f(x)$

$y=(1)/(2)x-6$

Exchange the variables x for y and y for x

$x=(1)/(2)y-6$

Isolate the variable y

$x+6=(1)/(2)y$

$y=2(x+6)$

Let

$f^(-1)(x)=y$

$f^(-1)(x)=2(x+6)$

The minimum ﬁne for driving in excess of the speed limit is $25. An additional $6 is added to the minimum ﬁne for each mile per hour (mph) in excess of the speedlimit. Rachel was issued a $103 ﬁne for speeding in a 55-mph speed limit zone. For driving at what speed, inmph, was Rachel ﬁned?

Answers

Let the excess speed limit be y.

According to your question,

25 + 6y = 103

6y = 103 - 25 = 78

y = 78/6 = 13

Thus, the excess speed was 13 mph.

Thus, speed of Rachel = 55 + 13 = 68mph

Thus, Rachel was driving at 68 mph.
