I HAVE A QUESTION!
TYPE OF QUESTION:Algebra II
YOUR QUESTION:A fishing boat left Port 32 and traveled west at an average speed of 8 km/h. A cruise ship left seven hours later and traveled in the same direction but with an average speed of 22 km/h. Find the number of hours the fishing boat traveled before the cruise ship caught up.

First calculate the distance between the boat and cruise ship at the time when the ship starts sailing. That's 8 (km/hr) * 7 he = 56 km.

Next is to find out how much time it would take for the ship to catch up to the boat. Let's call this t (in hours). After t hours have passed, the ship will have travelled: 22(km/hr) * t(hr) = 22t km
The boat will have travelled 56km + 8(km/hr) * t (hr) = 56km + 8t km

These distances travelled by the shop and boat must be the same so you are left with solving the equation:
22t = 56 + 8t

(And use standard algebra to do the rest)

YOUR QUESTION:This is sort of more for me to see where I'm at rather than an actual math problem, but basically, if you were to do an extra credit worksheet that was worth 40 points, how many % would that raise your grade??

YOUR QUESTION:This is sort of more for me to see where I'm at rather than an actual math problem, but basically, if you were to do an extra credit worksheet that was worth 40 points, how many % would that raise your grade??

Depends on what grade you get on the worksheet (assuming it's graded), what 40 points means (relative to how many points your other assignments are worth), whether the worksheet counts as an additional assignment (added to all the other assignments) or a bonus assignment (added on top), and the grade you already have. (:

In general, final grade = 100 * Σ(weight of assignment, in decimal form)(grade on assignment, in decimal form)

For example, assignment 1 is worth 12.5% and you get 80%. Assignment 2 is worth 30% and you get 75%. Assignment 3 is the other 57.5% and you get 96%.
Final grade = 100 * (0.125 * 0.8 + 0.3 * 0.75 + 0.575 * 0.96) = 87.7%

The higher the difference between the worksheet grade and the original grade, the bigger the % change after the worksheet.
If I lost you somewhere, add some info to the question and I'll try to give an actual number answer.

(Thanks for letting me procrastinate on studying for a calculus exam, haha.)

TYPE OF QUESTION: History
YOUR QUESTION:Hi there. I really need help before tomorrow night! But my question is about WWI. I'm currently doing an assignment and have to write a 300-500 word essay on what caused WWI and what factors contributed to the outbreak of it; also if the war could have been prevented. I'm not too good at History, so if someone could please link me to possibly a website that gives this information clearly and states it in an easy way, that'd be great. If anyone could help though, that'd also be great! Thanks so much

World War 1 is a hot mess because it had so many causes! The best essays on the topic talk about the varrying causes and how they are interrelated. This site here gives a nice, digestible overview of several causes. You might want to research each of these individually so that you have more information on each.

YOUR QUESTION: Early in its flight, the Apollo 11 spacecraft orbited Earth at an altitude of 120 miles. What was the distance from the spacecraft to Earths horizon, rounded to the nearest mile? (There is a diagram to go with this, it’s right here)

I hope this helps. The red circled numbers are in which order it should be read.
Don’t hesitate to ask if there’s something that’s unclear or are wondering about!
