One yardstick for measuring how steadily—if slowly—athletic performance has improved is the mile run. In 1958​, the local record for the running of a certain distance was 3​ minutes, 59.3 ​seconds, or 239.3 seconds. In the​ half-century since​ then, the record has decreased by 0.5 seconds per year.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

They will hit 180 seconds in 118.6 year

Step-by-step explanation:

Let M be the record for the mile (in seconds)

Let x be the year after 1958

So, x=(year)-19548

We are given that In the​ half-century since​ then, the record has decreased by 0.5 seconds per year

So, slope = m = 0.5

Now we will use point slope form

y = mx+c

So, we can express M as,

[tex]M=239.3-0.5 \times x[/tex]

Now we are supposed to find when they will hit 180 seconds

Substitute M = 180 in equation

180=239.3-0.5x

x=118.6

So, they will hit 180 seconds in 118.6 year

Answers

Answer:

The discount is $270

The new price would be $1,530

Step-by-step explanation:

You just multiply 1800 times 0.15 to get how much the discount would be and then if you are trying to find the new price you would subtract the discount or multiply 1800 times 0.85 because 100-15 is 85.

1) 35 = 5 * 7

  14 = 2 * 7

LCM = 2 * 5 * 7 = 70

2)  15 = 3 * 5

    12 = 2 * 2 * 3

LCM = 2* 2 * 3 * 5 = 60

Akiko wants to fence in her [tex]12[/tex] ft by [tex]10[/tex] ft vegetable garden. There will be a path [tex]x[/tex] ft wide between the garden and the fence. The area to be enclosed by the fence will be [tex]360[/tex] sq ft. Write a quadratic function that can be used to determine the value of [tex]x[/tex].

Answers

Answer:

see below

Step-by-step explanation:

The length is 12 + 2x  and the width is 10 + 2x

A = l*w

360 = ( 12+2x) ( 10+2x)

FOIL

360 = 120 + 24x+20x + 4x^2

Combine like terms

360 = 4x^2 +44x+120

Subtract 360 from each side

0 = 4x^2 +44x +120-360

0 = 4x^2+ 44x -240

For fun, lets solve

0 = 4( x^2 + 11x - 60)

0 = 4( x+15) ( x-4)

  Using the zero product property

x= -15  x=4

Since we cannot have negative length

x=4 ft

Answer:

[tex]x^2+11x-60=0[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Refer to the drawing.

We know that the area enclosed by the fence is 360 square feet. Remember that the area for a rectangle is given by the following formula:

[tex]A=bh[/tex]

So, let's substitute 360 for A, (12+2x) for b, and (10+2x) for h. This yields:

[tex]360=(12+2x)(10+2x)[/tex]

We can simplify this. On the right, factor out a 2 from the first term and a 2 from the second. This yields:

[tex]360=2(6+x)\cdot2(5+x)[/tex]

Multiply:

[tex]360=4(x+6)(x+5)[/tex]

Divide both sides by 4:

[tex]90=(x+6)(x+5)[/tex]

Multiply on the right:

[tex]90=x^2+6x+5x+30[/tex]

Add on the right:

[tex]90=x^2+11x+30[/tex]

Subtract 90 from both sides. So, our equation is:

[tex]x^2+11x-60=0[/tex]

And we're done!

For the points A(-3, 2), B(-3, 7), and C(2, 7), find the equation of the line
through B perpendicular to line AC.

Answers

Answer:

The equation of the line perpendicular to AC and passing through point B is y = -x + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

We start by finding the slope and equation of line AC

The equation of a straight line can be given as;

y = mx + c

where m is the slope and c is the y-intercept

Mathematically, the slope is given as;

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m = (7-2)/(2-(-3)) = 5/5 = 1

So the equation becomes ;

y = x + c

We only need the slope since we are trying to get another line perpendicular to this

If two lines are perpendicular, then the product of the slopes of both lines is equal to -1

This means that m1 * m2 = -1

So this means that the slope of the perpendicular line is -1/1 = -1

Thus, the equation of the line we are finding would be;

y = -x + c

since it passes through line B, we can make a substitution of the coordinates of point B

That would be;

7 = -(-3) + c

7 = 3 + c

c = 7-3

c = 4

So the equation of that line is;

y = -x + 4 or simply y = 4-x
