So last week Paul worked 2.5x this week's hours, so he worked a total of 2.5x15= 37.5 hours last week.
The notation just means
(f/g)(-4) = f(-4) / g(-4)
If f(x) = x² + 2 and g(x) = 1 - 3x, then
f(-4) = (-4)² + 2 = 16 + 2 = 18
g(-4) = 1 - 3 (-4) = 1 + 12 = 13
and so
(f/g)(-4) = 18/13
Answer:
The area of the trapezoid is 57.5 square inches
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
The trapezoid QRST can be divided into a rectangle QRDT and an isosceles right triangle RSD
see the attached figure to better understand the problem
step 1
The area of rectangle is given by the formula

we have
----> altitude

substitute

step 2
Find the area of the isosceles right triangle
The area of triangle is given by the formula

we have
---> because is an isosceles triangle
substitute

step 3
Adds the areas

Answer:
the second one is the answer
1 hour = 50 km
3 hours = 50 x 3 = 150 km
Answer: The car would go for 150 km in 3 hours.
