Answer 199987 by Alan3354(31518) on 2010-02-24 16:50:53 (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website!b = boat speed
c = current
-----------
d = rt
0 = (b+c)*0
0 = (b-c)*1
b = c
b = 0
c = 0
-----------
After watching for 1 hour, someone called time.
There's no current and the boat is not moving.

You can put this solution on YOUR website!A telemarketer calls people and tries to sell them a subscription to a daily newspaper. On 16% of her calls, there is no answer or the line is busy.
------------------
84% answer (100% - 16%)
-----------------------
She sells subscriptions to 10% of the remaining calls. For what proportion of calls does she make a sale?
10% of 84% = 8.4% (1/10 of 84)
8.4%

You can put this solution on YOUR website!3x+2< or equal to 6x+3
Treat it the same as equal
-------------
3x+2< or equal to 6x+3
3x<=6x+1
-3x<=1
-x<=1/3
x>=1/3 The polarity changes when you multiply by a negative.
Or, look at like this:
-x<=1/3
Add x
0<=x + 1/3
Subtract 1/3
-1/3<=x
Same as above, x>=1/3

You can put this solution on YOUR website!Circle G has a radius of 22 centimeters. Chord HI is 3 centimeters from the center. What is the length of HI in centimeters?
-------------------
The radius is the hypotenuse
HI/2 = sqrt(22^2 - 3^2) = sqrt(475)
HI = 2*5*sqrt(19) = 10sqrt(19)
HI =~ 43.5889

You can put this solution on YOUR website!How do I find what y is when I have three pints and my slope? Example: find y, (-4,3)and(12,y) slope 1/8
---------------
I see 2 points, no pints.
The slope, m = diffy/diffx
m = (3-y)/(-4-12) = 1/8
(3-y)/-16 = 1/8
3-y = -2
y = 5

Problems-with-consecutive-odd-even-integers/273730: one number 3 times more than an integer is 12 more than a consective integer 1 solutions
Answer 199938 by Alan3354(31518) on 2010-02-24 13:54:19 (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website!one number 3 times more than an integer is 12 more than a consective integer
---------------------
3 times more is 4 times.
4n = n+1+ 12
3n = 13
n = 13/3
---------
3 times more is not 3 times as much.
If you think it is, then 1 time more has to be the same as 1x, so it isn't more.
eg, 1 time more than 5 is 10. 2 times more than 5 is 15.
It's the difference between English and Gibberish.

Mei earns $2 less than three times as much as Olivia. Shane earnes twice as much as Mei. Together they earn $594 per week. How much does each person earn per week? 1 solutions
Answer 199906 by Alan3354(31518) on 2010-02-24 11:26:17 (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website!Mei earns $2 less than three times as much as Olivia. Shane earnes twice as much as Mei. Together they earn $594 per week. How much does each person earn per week?
-------------
L = Olivia's amount, the O could be confused with zero.
M = 3L - 2
S = 2M
L + M + S = 594
----------------
S = 2M --> S = 6L - 4
----------------------
L + M + S = 594
L + (3L-2) + (6L-4) = 594
10L - 6 = 594
10L = 600
L = $60
M = $178
S = $356

b. write and solve an equation to find the four numbers
x + x+1 + x+2 + x+3 = 150
4x + 6 = 150
x = 36
--> 36, 37, 38, 39
-------------------
-------------------
If you have time to waste do it as above.
If not:
150/4 = 37.5, the center of the 4 numbers
--> 36, 37, 38, 39

Linear-equations/273309: Find an equation of the line containing the given pair of points.
(1,4) and (3,5)
I found m first 5-4/3-1 = 1/2
Then through other sources told me to use this formula
y-y^1=m(x-x^1)
y-4=1/2(x-1)
y-4=1/2x(1/2)(-1/1)
y=1/2x-1/2+4
y=1/2x-2
But the answer is y=1/2x+7/2
Where did I go wrong? Please could you show me how do this by step by step?
Thank you

You can put this solution on YOUR website!Find an equation of the line containing the given pair of points.
(1,4) and (3,5)
I found m first 5-4/3-1 = 1/2
Then through other sources told me to use this formula
y-y^1=m(x-x^1)
y-4=1/2(x-1)
---------------
y-4 = x/2 - 1/2
y = x/2 + 7/2
----------------
y-4=1/2x(1/2)(-1/1) ???
y=1/2x-1/2+4 This is y = (1/2)x - (1/2) + 4 = (1/2)x + 7/2
--------------
A better method, after finding the slope, is to use:
y = mx + b and find b. (Use either point)
4 = (1/2)*1 + b
b = 7/2
--> y = (1/2)x + 7/2
--------------------
The lack of parentheses is confusing, even to you.
y=1/2x-2
But the answer is y=1/2x+7/2

Travel_Word_Problems/273180: When it is noon eastern standard time (EST) in New York City, it is 9:00 AM. Pacific standard time (PST) in San Francisco. A plane took off from New York City at noon EST and arrived in San Francisco at 4:00 P.M. PST on the same day. If a second plane left San Francisco at noon PST and took exactly the same amount of time for the trip, what was the plane’s arrival time (EST) in New York City?
(A)10:00 P.M.EST (B) 9:00 P.M. EST (C) 7:00 P.M. EST (D) 6:00 P.M. EST (E) 4:00 P.M. EST

If a second plane left San Francisco at noon PST and took exactly the same amount of time for the trip, what was the plane’s arrival time (EST) in New York City?
-----------------
Step 1, convert all times to GMT, Greenwich Mean Time.
GMT = EST + 5
GMT = PST + 8
----------------------------------
A plane took off from New York City at 1700Z and arrived in San Francisco at 0000Z on the same day. If a second plane left San Francisco at 2000Z and took exactly the same amount of time for the trip, what was the plane’s arrival time in New York City?
------------------
------------------
The plane from NY to SFO took 7 hours (0000 - 1700).
2000 + 700 = 0300Z (the next day), for the arrival in NY.
0300Z = 10 PM EST the same day

(A)10:00 P.M.EST (B) 9:00 P.M. EST (C) 7:00 P.M. EST (D) 6:00 P.M. EST (E) 4:00 P.M. EST
------------------
Aviation does not use local time, they use GMT, and call it "Zulu time" from the Z used to designate it. This keeps all airplanes and ATC (Air Traffic Control) using the same times world-wide.
There's no AM and PM used either, obviously. Most countries in the world use a 24 hour clock, not the AM and PM foolishness.
