The question is missing the graph. So, the graph is attached below.

Answer:

The maximum speed of the train is V=240\ km/h

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Distance travelled is 100 km.

Time interval is 30 minutes.

We know that, area under the curve of a speed-time graph gives the total distance travelled by the train.

The area under the curve is the area of the given trapezium shape shown in the graph below.

The height of the trapezium is equal to the maximum speed of the train represented by 'V' km/h. The parallel sides are of lengths equal to (25 - 5 =) 20 min and (30 - 0 =) 30 min.

Converting the units of parallel sides from minutes to hours we get:

30\ min=\frac{30}{60}=\frac{1}{2}\ h\\20\ min=\frac{20}{60}=\frac{1}{3}\ h

Now, area of a trapezium is given as:

Area=\frac{1}{2}\times\textrm{Sum of parallel sides}\times \textrm{Height}\\\\Area=\frac{1}{2}(\frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{3})(V)\\\\Area=\frac{1}{2}(\frac{3+2}{6})(V)\\\\Area=\frac{1}{2}(\frac{5}{6})(V)\\\\Area=(\frac{1\times 5}{2\times6})(V)\\\\Area=\frac{5}{12}(V)

Now, area under the curve is equal to the distance travelled. So,

\frac{5}{12}(V)=100\\V=\frac{100\times12}{5}\\V=240\ km/h

Therefore, the maximum speed of the train is V=240\ km/h

There are three consecutive integers. The product of the first and the last is 35 more than 5 times the second number. Find thes
mamaluj [8]

Answer:

8,9,10

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x-1, x and x+1 be the consecutive integers

(x-1)(x+1) = 5x + 35

x² - 1 - 5x - 35 = 0

x² - 5x - 36 = 0

x² - 9x + 4x - 36= 0

x(x - 9) + 4(x - 9) = 0

(x - 9)(x + 4) = 0

x = 9, -4

What is the translation of the point to its image? A (−1, 4)→ A' (3, 3)
Gala2k [10]

Answer:

We validate that the formula to determine the translation of the point to its image will be:

A (x, y) → A' (x+4, y-1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

A (−1, 4)→ A' (3, 3)

Here:

  • A(-1, 4) is the original point
  • A'(3, 3) is the image of A

We need to determine which translation operation brings the coordinates of the image A'(3, 3).

If we closely observe the coordinates of the image A' (3, 3), it is clear the image coordinates can be determined by adding 4 units to the x-coordinate and subtracting 1 unit to the y-coordinate.

Thue, the rule of the translation will be:

A(x, y) → A' (x+4, y-1)

Let us check whether this translation rule validates the image coordinates.

A (x, y) → A' (x+4, y-1)

Given that A(-1, 4), so

A (-1, 4) → A' (-1+4, 4-1) = A' (3, 3)

Therefore, we validate that the formula to determine the translation of the point to its image will be:

A (x, y) → A' (x+4, y-1)
