Lizette ran for 1.25 hours and walked for 3 hours. Her overall distance can be calculated using the formula: distance = speed × time. The total distance covered combines her runs at different speeds, where w stands for her walking speed in mi/h. The problem states that...
19 = (w+5)(1.25) + (w)(3)
19 = 4.25w + 6.25.... combining terms
12.75 = 4.25w....... subtracting 6.25
3 = w............... dividing by 4.25

Thus, Lizette's walking speed is 3 mph and her running speed is 8 mph.

A student writes the equation for a line that has a slope of -6 and passes through the point (2, –8). y -(-8) = -6(x - 2) y -(-8
Zina [12379]
The equation Y - (-8) = -6 (x-2) is accurate, but the rest are not.
This simplifies to y + 8 = -6x + 12.
Then, applying the subtraction of 8 yields y = -6x + 4, which is the correct slope-intercept form.

A bag of garden soil weighs 38 pounds and holds 4 cubic feet. Find the weight of 15 bags in kilograms and the volume of 15 bags
Svet_ta [12734]

Answer:

The total weight of 15 bags is 258.21 kilograms.

The combined volume of 15 bags is 2.222 cubic yards.

Step-by-step explanation:

In terms of dimensions, a pound is equivalent to 0.453 kilograms, and a cubic yard is equal to 27 cubic feet. We'll calculate the weight and volume for 15 bags by utilizing these conversions:

Weight

x = 15\,bags \times \frac{38\,lb}{1\,bag}\times \frac{0.453\,kg}{1\,lb}

x = 258.21\,kg

The total weight of 15 bags equals 258.21 kilograms.

Volume

x = 15\,bags \times \frac{4\,ft^{3}}{1\,bag} \times \frac{1\,yd^{3}}{27\,ft^{3}}

x = 2.222\,yd^{3}

The total volume of 15 bags sums up to 2.222 cubic yards.

You just received an insurance settlement offer related to an accident you had six years ago. The offer gives you a choice of on
AnnZ [12381]

answer:

Detailed explanation:

Option A: $1,565 monthly over 72 months

The total comes to $112,680

Option B: $1,012 each month for 10 years,

which is the same as 120 months

Thus, the total amount received is 1012×120

equaling $121,440.

Option C:

Receive $100,000 in a single payment.

All the details presented are accurate.

However,

As the individual has no preference whether to take the money personally or let it go to an heir, we can disregard the lump sum payment option of $100,000.

Furthermore, as they are willing to wait and are indifferent about who benefits from the insurance payout, the 72-month option can also be overlooked.

Therefore, choosing the second option is advisable since it provides the highest total and the most payments over time.

Waiting for ten years will yield $121,440.
