what is the speed of the moving object

Option

A)2miles per unit time

B) 2.5 miles per unit time

C)4 miles per unit time

D)1.5 miles per unit time

definition of speed : Distance travelled by an moving object in unit time is called speed.

here the distance travelled by a moving object is represented by a Stright line

so here the speed of the object is given by the slope of the stright line

formula for the slope of Stright line m= y2-y1/x2-x1 ,where (x1,y1) and (x2, y2) are co-ordinates

of any two points on the Stright line graph

here the co-ordinates of the points on the stright line graph are (1,0), (2,2), (3,4), (4,6), (5,8)

Consider any two points, here i am considering (2,2) and (5,8)

slope m = y2-y1/x2-x1=8-2/5-2=6/3=2

The speed is = 2 miles per unit time

Hello pathu

Helo pathu

Hello pathu

The above equation represent the cost os a certain pen with respect to time.

what is the equation of the graph

Option

A)y=2x-3

B)y=2x+3

C)y=3x-2

D)y=3x+2

solution

General equation of a Stright line y = mx +c

m=y2-y1/x2-x1

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

consider the point (0,-3) and (1.5,0)

substitute the value of x and y co-ordinates from the above points

m= 0- (-3)/1.5=0

m= 3/1.5=, Multiply by 10 both numerator and denominator

m= 3*10/1.5*10=30/15=2

therefore the equation y= 2x +c

to find the value of c ,consider the point (0,-3)

x=0 and y=-3

-3=2*0 +c

-3= c

substitute the value of c= -3

y = 2x -3

8)The equation g(x) is defined as g(x)=5ex-4 in XY- plane .Find the x- intercept of x and y.

Option:

A) 0 and 1

B) 0 and 0

C)1 and 0 D)

Solution:

Let The given equation g(x)= y=5ex-5

To find x- intercepts substitute y=0

Therefore 5ex-5=0

5ex-5=0 (By addind 5 on both side of the equation )

5ex-5+5=5

5ex=5 ( divide both side of the equation 5)

Now the equation 5ex/5=5/5=1

ex=1 (express 1 in exaptational form)

ex=1=e0

Therefore x – intercept is 0

To find Y- intercepts substitute x=0

In the above equation y=5e^x-5

Therefore y=5ex-5 .

Y= 5ex-5 . = 5e0-5

5-5=0

therefore y intercept is 0

IOption:

A)6

B)5

C)-6

D)-5

Spolution:

From the given equation 3+5x=ny

Add -3 on both side

Therefore 3+5x-3=ny-3

5x=ny-3

Substitute the value of 5x in equation

5x-3y=3y+15

So we will get ny-3-3y=3y+15

Add 3y on both side

Now ny-3-3y+3y=3y+3y+15

ny-3=6y+15

Now apply the system of linear equation has no solution

This gives that ny-3≠6y+15

This is true if ny=6y

2)A stationary store selling two types of pens at the rate of $15 and $20 each.

The store sold 35 pens for $600.Find the number of pens sold in each kind.

Option:

A)15,20

B)20,15

C)20,13

D)20,15

Solution:

Let the number of pens sold in each kind are a and b.

Total number sold =35

That is a+b=35.

Tolat cost of sale =600

That is the total cost of a and pens

That is 20a + 15b=600 ( cost pens 420, 15 -given)

consider a+b=35

add -b on both side

a+b-b=35-b

Now a =35-b

Substitute in 20a+15b=600

Then we get 20(35-b)+15b=600

Simply 700-20b+15b=600

Add -700 on both side

700-20b+15b-700=600-700

-20b+15b=-100

-5b=-100

Divide -5 on both side

-5b/-5=-100/16

b=20

Substitute in b= 20 in a+b=35

Then a+20=35

Add -20 on both side

Now a+20-20=35-20

Px=qy=r

From the above equation

The ratio of x coordinates=3/2/p

The ratio of y co-ordidates =-5/3/q

It is given that these equation have no roots

Therefore 3/2/p=-5/3/q

Therefore p=3/2 and q=-5/2

What is length of larger part of the rope in meters.?

Option:

A)240

B)250

C)120

D)180

Solution:

Let p and q are two part of the rope.

P + q = 250. (length of the rope,

Let p the smallest part of the rope.

And q is larger part of the rope.

It is given one part of the rope 10 meters less than the 5 times of the other

Therefore q -10=5p

Add 10 on side

Then q-10 +10=5p+10

q=5p +10

Substitute q value in p+q = 260

Therefore p+5p+10=250

add =10 on both side of the equation

6p+10-10=250-10

6p=240

Divide by 10 on both side

6p/6=240/6

That is 3x=23-7y

Divide 3 0n b0th side

3x/3= (23-7y)/3

X=(23-7y)/3

Substitute the value of x in 7x-3y=15

That is 7((23-7y)/3)-3y=15

Multiply by 3 on both side

7((23-7y)/3)×3-3y×3=15×3

7(23-7y)-9y=45

161-49y-9y=45

161-58y=45

Add -161 on both side.

Solution:

Consider the system of equation 5x + 6y =16 and 10x + 12Y = 32

We can understand that the first equation is multiply by 2 we got the second equation.

So that it is enough given p≠oint can stisfy one of the equation

Consider the point (r+2, (-5r)/6+2)

Substitute x= r+2 and y=(-5r)/6+2

Now 10x + 12 y =32 is equal to 10 (2+r) + 12( (-5r)/6+2)=32

Simplify 20+_10 r +12((-5r)/6)+12×2=32

20+10r + 2(-5r)+24=32

20+10r-10r+24=32

34 ≠32

Consider the point (2-r, r, 5/6 r+1)

Substitute x = 2-r and y = 5/6 r+1

10x + 12y =32

10(2 – r ) + 12 ( 5/6 r+1)=32

20 – 10r + 12 X 5/6 r+1x12=32

11) In a cricket match the winning team scored 10 runs more three times the losing team.

Find the runs score by the winning

team if the total number of runs scored by both team is 450.

Option;

A)300

B)440

C)340

D)240

Solution:

Let x be the runs scored by losing team

And y be the 10 more than three times the runs scored by losing time.

That is y=10+3x

Total number of runs scored by the both team is 450

So x +10 + 3x = 450

4x+10=450

Add -10 on both side

Then 4x+10-10=450-10

4x=440

Divide 4 on both side

4x/4=440/4

X=110

Runs scored by winning team = 3x+10=3x110+10=330+10=340.

Simplify 5x-ax-15 =2ax +5

Add -2ax on both sides then

5x-ax-2ax -15=2ax+5-2ax

5x-3ax-15=5

Add 15 on both side

Then 5x-3ax -15+15=5+15

5x-3ax=20

Simplify x(5-2a)=20

Divide (5-2a) on both side

Then (x(5-2a))/(5-2a) =20/(5-2a)

X=20/(5-2a)

In this equation if 2a =5 the the right side of the equation is undefine

So it has no solution

That is when 2a=5
