On the number line, a bug A is moving in the positive direction from the point 0, and a bug Bis moving in the negative direction from the point 0. The speeds of both bugs are constant. Both leave 0 at the same time, and three seconds later A has reached 18 and B has reached –15.

If x is the point reached by A after t seconds, and y is the point reached by Bafter t seconds, express x and y in terms of t.

Answer from: QueenBlumple6598

x=st

y=-5t

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The speed is equal to divide the distance by the time

The distance is equal to multiply the speed by the time

Let

s ----> the speed in units per second

d ---> the distance in units

t ---> is the time in seconds

BUG A

we have

$d=18\ units$

$t=3\ sec$

The speed is equal to

$s=\frac{d}{t}$

substitute

$s=\frac{18}{3}=6\ units/sec$

If x is the point reached by A after t seconds

then

Multiply the speed by the time

x=st

x=6t

BUG B

we have

$d=-15\ units$

$t=3\ sec$

The speed is equal to

$s=\frac{d}{t}$

substitute

$s=\frac{15}{3}=5\ units/sec$

If y is the point reached by B after t seconds

then

Multiply the speed by the time

y=st

y=-5t ----> is negative because B is moving in the negative direction

Answer from: glander2

x = 6t

y = 5t

Step-by-step explanation:

We know the distance formula:

D = RT

Where

D is distance

R is speed

T is time

Bug A went 18 units after 3 seconds, so the speed is:

18 = R(3)

R = 18/3

R = 6 unit/sec

Bug B went 15 units in 3 seconds, so the speed is:

15 = R(3)

R = 15/3

R = 5 units/sec

x is reached by A after 3 seconds, so

x = 6t

y is reached by B after 3 seconds, so

y = 5t

Answer from: Quest

Okay so for every triangle has three angles that always add up to 180 degrees. and to tell the difference between whether they are secure, right or obtuse is that acute: has one angle that is less than 90 degrees. right triangle means there is at least one angle that is exactly 90 degrees. and an obtuse angle has an angle that is bigger than 180 degrees. i’ll do #13 as an example: 13. 40 and 50 so if every triangle has 180 degrees 40+50= 90 degrees then180-90= 90 degrees so the third angle is 90 degrees and because this triangle has a 90 degree angle it means it is a right triangle

Answer from: Quest

d, x=8

step-by-step explanation:

simplifying

4x + -5 = 2x + 11

reorder the terms:

-5 + 4x = 2x + 11

reorder the terms:

-5 + 4x = 11 + 2x

solving

-5 + 4x = 11 + 2x

solving for variable 'x'.

move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

add '-2x' to each side of the equation.

-5 + 4x + -2x = 11 + 2x + -2x

combine like terms: 4x + -2x = 2x

-5 + 2x = 11 + 2x + -2x

combine like terms: 2x + -2x = 0

-5 + 2x = 11 + 0

-5 + 2x = 11

add '5' to each side of the equation.

-5 + 5 + 2x = 11 + 5

combine like terms: -5 + 5 = 0

0 + 2x = 11 + 5

2x = 11 + 5

combine like terms: 11 + 5 = 16

2x = 16

divide each side by '2'.
