Answer:

24/35 hours  or 0.69 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The speed is equal to divide the distance by the time

Let

x-----> distance traveled by John

(24-x) ----> distance traveled by Ramona

The time is equal to divide the distance by the speed

so

x/20=(24-x)/15

15x=20(24-x)

15x=480-20x

15x+20x=480

35x=480

x=480/35 miles

the time is equal to

t=x/20

t=480/(20*35)=24/35=0.69 hours

Write an equation in slope-intercept form that goes through (12, 4) and (20,8).
spayn [35]

Answer:

Equation in slope-intercept form that goes through (12, 4) and (20,8) is: y = \frac{1}{2}x-2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given two points are:

(x_1,y_1) = (12,4)\\(x_2,y_2) = (20,8)

Slope intercept form of line is given as:

y = mx+b

Here m is the slope of the line and b is the y-intercept.

Slope of a line is calculated by the formula:

m = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

Putting the values

m = \frac{8-4}{20-12}\\m = \frac{4}{8}\\m=\frac{1}{2}

Putting the value of slope in slope-intercept form we get

y = \frac{1}{2}x+b

To find the value of b, any one point will be put in the equation

Putting the first point (12,4) in the equation

4 = \frac{1}{2}(12) + b\\4 = 6+b\\b = 4-6\\b = -2

Putting the value of b

y = \frac{1}{2}x-2

Hence,

Equation in slope-intercept form that goes through (12, 4) and (20,8) is: y = \frac{1}{2}x-2

Write the square of the binomial as a polynomial: (-1 1/3p + 6q)^2
Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer:

\frac{16}{9}p² -16pq + 36q²

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

(- \frac{4}{3}p + 6q)²

= (- \frac{4}{3}p + 6q)(- \frac{4}{3}p + 6q)

Each term in the second factor is multiplied by each term in the first factor, that is

- \frac{4}{3}p(- \frac{4}{3}p + 6q) + 6q(- \frac{4}{3}p + 6q)

= \frac{16}{9}p² - 8pq - 8pq + 36q² ← collect like terms

= \frac{16}{9}p² - 16pq + 36q²

The function p(x) = 25x represents the number of pages p(x) a printer can print in x minutes. How many pages can the
Rashid [163]

Answer:

7,500 Pages

Step-by-step explanation:

So this printer can prink 25 pages in 1 (x) minute.

There are 60 minutes in an hour and we are waiting 5 hours, so 5x60 = 300 minutes.

Then you take the 300 and plug it in for x because that is how many minutes we are waiting for.  Now your equation should look like this:

p(x) = 25(300)

Next you multiply 25 x 300 and you get 7,500 pieces of paper
