A lost turtle - swimming 13 feet below the surface of the water - begins to ascend at 0.5 foot per second. In hopes of (harmlessly) capturing the turtle, a diver jumps into the water to a depth of 4 feet before descending at a rate of 0.25 foot per second.

a) Write an equation to model the position of the turtle at any given time.



b) Write an equation to model the position of the diver at any given time.



c) After how long will the diver be able to catch the turtle?



d) At what depth will the diver be able to catch the turtle?

Answer:

  a) T(t) = -13 +0.5t

  b) D(t) = -4 -0.25t

  c) 12 seconds

  d) 7 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

a) The turtle starts at -13 feet and increases its elevation relative to the water's surface by 0.5 ft/second. After t seconds, the turtle will be 0.5t feet closer to the surface, so its depth will be ...

 T(t) = -13 +0.5t

__

b) The diver starts at -4 feet and decreases their elevation relative to the water's surface by 0.35 ft/second. After t seconds, the diver will be 0.25t lower than the initial position, so their depth will be ...

  D(t) = -4 -0.25t

__

c) The diver and turtle will be at the same depth when ...

  T(t) = D(t)

  -13 +0.50t = -4 -0.25t

  0.75t = 9 . . . . . . . . . . . . add 13+0.25t

  t = 12 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 0.75

The diver and turtle will be at the same depth after 12 seconds.

__

d) That depth will be ...

  T(12) = -13 +0.5(12) = -13 +6 = -7

The diver and turtle meet at a depth of 7 feet.

Tristan is selling plastic and wooden picture frames. He sells 7 frames total. The number of plastic frames Tristan sells is 5 less than twice the number of wooden frames. How many of each type of frame does Tristan sell?

Answers

Answer:

4 wooden and 3 plastic

Step-by-step explanation:

4 (wooden) × 2 - 5 = 3 plastic

3 (plastic) + 4 (wooden) = 7 total

The number of plastic frames is 4 and the number of wooden frames is 3.

What is equation?

A formula known as an equation uses the equals sign to denote the equality of two expressions.

Given statement:

The number of plastic frames Tristan sells is 5 less than twice the number of wooden frames.

The total number of frames sold by Tristan is 7.

Write the equation for the above statement,

p = 2w - 5

Here, p is a plastic frame and w is a wooden frame,

p + w = 7

Solve the equation by using the elimination method,

p = 4 and w = 3

Explain how you can find the volume of the figure below. Then, solve- what is the volume of the figure? Make sure to include your units

Answers

Answer: a) The figure can be reasonably divided into two geometries:

• a rectangular prism

• a hemisphere.

b) The volume of the rectangular prism is given by

  V = lwh

  V = (10 cm)(5 cm)(4 cm) = 200 cm³

The volume of the hemisphere is given by

  V = (2π/3)r³

  V = (2π/3)(3 cm)³ = 18π cm³

c) The total volume of the figure is

  total volume = (prism volume) + (hemisphere volume)

  V = 200 cm³ + 18π cm³

  V ≈ 256.549 cm³

solve the system of equations using elimination.
X-Y=3
2x+2y=50

Answers

Answer:

abcdefg

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

x = 14

y = 11

Step-by-step explanation:

x - y = 3

2x + 2y = 50

multiplty x - y = 3 by two so we can get an equal value

2x - 2y = 6

2x + 2y = 50

-2y and 2y can be cancled out. That means we don't need to change any signs and we can add everything exept 2y and -2y becuase they will be cancled out.

4x = 56

Divide each side by 4 to leave x alone.

x = 14

Now that we know the x value, take one of the equations in the question and plug it in. I am going to use the equation x - y = 3 to make it easier.

14 - y = 3

-y = 3 - 14

-y = -11

y = 11

Now we know that y = 11.

−15x−40=23−8x
What does x =

Answers

Answer:

x = -9

Step-by-step explanation:

-15x - 40 = 23 - 8x  

Add 8x to both sides

-15x + 8x - 40 = 23

          -7x - 40 = 23

Add 40 to both sides

                - 7x = 23 + 40

                  -7x = 63

 Divide both sides by (-7)

            x = 63/-7

x = -9

Answer:

x = -9

Step-by-step explanation:

-15x - 40 = 23 - 8x

add 8x to both sides to bring -8x to the left side

-15x + 8x - 40 = 23

add 40 to both sides to bring -40 to the right side

-15x + 8x = 23 + 40

add the common terms

-7x = 63

for x to be alone divide -7 to both sides

x = -9

y= -3x - 2

Step-by-step:
The points graphed are (0,-2) and (-1,1)
We can see that the point goes up by 3 and left by 1. Because the line is in hemispheres 2 and 4 mostly, it is a negative line.

The equation to find the coefficient of the variable x is rise/run. The line rises up three, and runs left negative. This makes that equation 3/-1, or simply -3 when simplified.

To find the term, we have to find where the line crosses the y axis. That’s when the x value of the point is 0. (0,-2) is where the line crosses the x axis, making the term -2.

So, y= -3x - 2

============================================

Explanation:

The outer term -2 is multiplied by each term inside

-2 times 4r = -8r-2 times -6 = 12

Then those results are added to get -8r + 12 as our final answer. We cannot combine these terms because they are not like terms.

I used the distribution property, also known as the distributive property.

That says a*(b-c) = a*b - a*c

In this case, a = -2, b = 4r, and c = 6.
