PLEASE HELP ME. I NEED TO ANSWER THIS ASAP. I WILL LOVE YOU FOREVER OMG. Okay so the question is - Keith is racing this little sister Pattie and has given her a 15 foot head start. She runs 5 ft/sec and he is chasing at 8ft/sec. For how long can Pattie stay ahead of Keith?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: Keith runs (8 - 5) = 3 ft per sec faster than Pattie, so every second he gets 3 ft closer to her. If they do that for (15/3) = 5 seconds, he'll catch up to her.

A China cup and saucer cost 12$. The cup on its own cost 3$ more than the saucer. Form an eqaution for s and solve it. Find the cost of the cup

Answers

If the cup = S + 3
and the
saucer = S
then

(S + 3) + S = 12
2s + 3 = 12
2s = 9
s = 4.50

So by itself the saucer costs $4.50. To find the cost of the cup look to the beginning of the problem where we learned that

Cup = S + 3
cup = 4.50 + 3
cup = 7.50

So the saucer is $4.50 and the cup is $7.50...

4.50 + 7.50 = $12.00

Need help with a problem. For some reason I can not seem to get it correct. Thinking my formula is wrong. Here's the problem:Assume that there are approximately 140x10^9 stars in our galaxy.Our galaxy is 50,000 light years from the center to the edge, but just 1,000 light years thick. It's shaped like a thin disk or cylinder. If the stars were distributed equally throughout the galaxy, how many stars would you expect to find in one cubic light year?I thought it would be Pi*r^2*l. Then divide that by the number of stars. What am I doing wrong? Thanks, been 20 years since I had to do math like this!

Suppose that a when a cell phone store charges 16$ for a car charger, it sells 92 units. When it drops the price to 15$ it sells 96 units. Assume that demand is a linear function of price. If each phone charger costs 1$ to make, what price should the store charge to maximize its profit? If x is the number of times the price is reduced by one dollar. Find a function for total profit with respect to x. A negative value for x will mean the price is increased.
