Barbara, Mark, and Carlos participated in the third heat of “The Big Race”. Barbara thought she could win with a 3 meter head st

art even though she only pedaled 3 meters every 2 seconds. Mark began at the starting line and finished the 20-meter race in 5 seconds. Meanwhile, Carlos rode his tricycle so that his distance (y) from the starting line in meters could be represented by the equation y = x + 1, where x represents time in seconds. Who would win in a 20 meter race?

Distance to travel = 20 m.
Let us determine the time, t, that each participant took to complete 20 m.

Barbara:
Average speed = (3 m)/(2 s) = 1.5 m/s
t = 20/1.5 = 13.3 s

Mark:
t =  5 s

Carlos:
y = x + 1
where
y = 20 m
x = time, t
Therefore
t =x = y - 1 = 20 - 1 = 19 s

Summary:
Barbara:  13.3 s
Mark:       5 s
Carlos:     19 s

Answer:
The winner is Mark

10.9 + (-15.6) + 2.1 write as a decimal​
Delvig [45]

Answer:

-2.6

Step-by-step explanation:

10.9 + (-15.6) becomes 10.9 - 15.6 which equals -4.7. The last step is to add the 2.1 to the -4.7: -4.7 + 2.1 = -2.6

Therefore the answer is -2.6

Suppose f(x)=x^2 what is the graph of g(x)=f(2x)
Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

Since g(x) = f(2x), this means we substitute 2x in place of x for f(x):

g(x) = f(2x) = (2x)² = 4x²

Graphing this, the parabola is not moved from the parent graph f(x) = x², but the graph is compressed horizontally by a factor of 4.Step-by-step explanation:

fenix001 [56]

Answer:

Equation of a line is y = mx + c

where

m = slope

c = y intercept

y = 1/6x - 3

Comparing with the above formula

m = 1/6

Since the lines are parallel their slope are also the same

So the equation of the line using point (-4,2) is

y - 2 = 1/6( x + 4)

y - 2 = 1/6x + 2/3

y = 1/6x + 2/3 + 2

y = 1/6x + 8/3

Hope this helps

A

Step-by-step explanation:

The triangles aren't similar.

The triangles share a side so we cant use anything involving SSS SAS.

The triangles has only known congruent angle so we cant use AA.
