Let the time that you caught up with your friend be t, then
8.5 - 3.4t = 8 - 3t
3.4t - 3t = 8.5 - 8
0.4t = 0.5
t = 0.5/0.4 = 1.25
therefore, you will catch up with your friend after 1.25 hours.
b.) time it will take you to cross the finnish line = 8.5/3.4 = 2.5 hours
After 2.5 hours, distance covered by your friend = 3 x 2.5 = 7.5 miles
Therefore, when you cross the finish line, you are 8 - 7.5 = 0.5 miles ahead of your friend.
Answer: ab =6
have:
=> a + b + 1 = ab
⇔ a + b + 1 - ab = 0
⇔ b - 1 - a(b - 1) + 2 = 0
⇔ (b - 1)(1 - a) = -2
because a and b are postive integers => (b - 1) and (1 - a) also are integers
=> (b - 1) ∈ {-1; 1; 2; -2;}
(1 -a) ∈ {-1; 1; 2; -2;}
because (b -1).(1-a) = -2 => we have the table:
b - 1 -1 1 2 -2
1 - a 2 -2 -1 1
a -1 3 2 0
b 0 2 3 -1
a.b 0 6 6 0
because a and b are postive integers
=> (a;b) = (3;2) or (a;b) = (2;3)
=> ab = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
11 - 4x
Step-by-step explanation:
-5 - 3x - x - (-16)
Reorder the terms so that like terms are next to each other
-5 - (-16) - 3x - x
Combine like terms
11 - 4x
we have point (-6, - 1)
Now we will put these points in each equation,
y = 4x +23
put x = -6 and y = -1
-1 = 4 (-6) +23
-1 = -24 + 23
-1 = -1
LHS = RHS, so this equation has (-6 , -1) as solution.
y = 6x
put x = -6 and y = -1
-1 = 6 (-6)
-1 not= -36
LHS is not equal RHS, so (-6 , -1) is not a solution for that equation,
y = 3x - 5
put x = -6 and y = -1
-1 = 3 (-6) - 5
-1 = -18 - 5
-1 not= -23
LHS is not equal RHS, so (-6 , -1) is not a solution for that equation,
y= 1/6 x
put x = -6 and y = -1
-1 = -6/6
-1 = -1
LHS = RHS, so (-6 , -1) is a solution for that equation,
Answer: 7
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) 3x+1
f(2) = 3(2) +1
f(2) = 6+1
= 7
