Answer:

r = 28 km/hr

d = 140 km

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance between the two towns is d

We know the formula for distance is d = rt

A biker covered half the distance between two towns in 2 hr 30 min.

Changing the time to hours and calling the rate r

d/2 = r * 2 1/2

For the second part the rate is (r+2)

He covered the second half of the distance in 2 hr 20 min

Changing the time to hours 2 hrs 20 min = 2 1/3 hours

d/2 = (r+2)( 2 1/3)

Since the distances are the same, we can set the two equations equal

r * 2 1/2 = (r+2)( 2 1/3)

Changing to improper fractions

r (5/2) = (r+2) 7/3

Multiplying each side by 6 to clear the fractions

6r (5/2) = (r+2) 7/3*6

15r = (r+2) *14

Distribute

15r = 14r+28

Subtracting 14r from each side

15r-14r = 14r-14r+28

r = 28

Now we want to find the distance

d/2 = r * 2 1/2

d/2 = 28 (5/2)

Multiply each side by 2

d/2*2 = 28 (5/2)*2

d = 28 *5

d = 140

Answer:

Distance: 140 km

Initial speed: 28 km/hr

Step-by-step explanation:

D = speed × time

let S be the Intial speed

And D be the half distance

D = S × 2½

D = (S + 2) × 2⅓

(5/2)S = (S + 2) × 7/3

7/3 S - 5/2 S = 14/3

S/6 = 14/3

S = 28 km/hr

D = 5×28/2 = 70

Total distance = 2×70 = 140 km

HELP PLEASE <br><br> how do i put this into a piecewise function?
Nonamiya [84]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

2 functions start by making a domain

Function 1: -3≤x<1

Function 2: -1≤x≤1

Now come up with equations

Function 1= x+3

Function 2= 5

Now put it all together

f(x)= x+3 for -3≤x<1 and 5 for -1≤x≤1

What is the inverse of the function below?<br><br> f(x) = 2^x + 6
Helen [10]

The inverse of this function would be f(x) = \frac{Log(x - 6)}{Log2}.



You can find the value of any inverse function by switching the f(x) and the x value. Then you can solve for the new f(x) value. The end result will be your new inverse function. The step-by-step process is below.



f(x) = 2^{x} - 6 ----> Switch f(x) and x



x = 2^{f(x)} - 6 ----> Add 6 to both sides



x + 6 = 2^{f(x)} -----> Take the logarithm of both sides in order to get the f(x) out of the exponent



Log(x + 6) = f(x)Log2 ----> Now divide both sides by Log2



\frac{Log(x + 6)}{Log2} = f(x) ----> And switch the order for formatting purposes.



f(x) = \frac{Log(x + 6)}{Log2}



And that would be your new inverse function.
