Two passenger trains 190 miles apart are headed toward each other on the same track—one at 50 mph and the other at 80 mph. Ironm

an responds to the danger by flying back and forth between the trains, hoping to stop them before disaster strikes. Unfortunately, when he reaches each train, an invisible force repulses him back, jolting him in the opposite direction (toward the other train).  If Ironman maintains a constant speed of 150 mph the entire time—while flying back and forth between the trains—how far will he have flown when the trains collide?

190-(50+80)t=0

190-130t=0

130t=190

t=19/13  so the trains will remain apart for 19/13 hours.

Since ironman is flying at a constant rate of 150mph he will fly:

150(19/13)≈219.23 miles in that time period while the trains are apart.

On a coordinate plane, a solid straight line has a positive slope and goes through (negative 4, 0) and (0, 2). Everything to the
Paha777 [63]

Answer:

y\le\dfrac{1}{2}x+2

Step-by-step explanation:

On a coordinate plane, a solid straight line has a positive slope and goes through (negative 4, 0) and (0, 2). This line has the equation

y-0=\dfrac{2-0}{0-(-4)}(x-(-4))\\ \\y=\dfrac{1}{2}(x+4)\\ \\y=\dfrac{1}{2}x+2

The origin belongs to the shaded region, so its coordinates must satisfy the inequality. Since

\dfrac{1}{2}\cdot 0+2=2\ge 0,

then the correct inequality is

y\le\dfrac{1}{2}x+2

If y = -x² + 14x + 7 , then x = 10 is a counterexample for which conjecture?
Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

The correct answer is B

Step-by-step explanation:

If we plug in x=10 to the equation, we get y=47

Since y is positive, A is not an counterexample

Since y is a function of x, C is not an counterexample

Since the graph of y is a parabola, D is not an counterexample

Solve each linear equation for x. (A) –12x + 9 = –15x x = (B) 4.5x + 11.5 = 8.5x + 3.5 x = (C) 23x – 9 = 13x x =
mojhsa [17]

Answer:

A. x = -3

B. x = 2

C. x = 9/10

Step-by-step explanation:

(A) –12x + 9 = –15x

Collect like terms

9 = -15x + 12x

9 = -3x

x = 9 / -3

x = -3

(B) 4.5x + 11.5 = 8.5x + 3.5

4.5x - 8.5x = 3.5 - 11.5

-4x = -8

x = -8 / -4

x = 2

(C) 23x – 9 = 13x

-9 = 13x - 23x

-9 = -10x

x = -9 / -10

x = 9/10

Answer:

Lin =    8.2 m/s  x  25 s =<u> 205 m  </u> (<em>Finish Point)</em>

Elena =  V = 250 m / 28 s     <u>V = 8.93/s </u> (<em>Velocity</em>)

Diego = -8.1 m/s x 32 s =<u> -259.2 meters</u>  (<em>Finish Point</em>)

Andre =  V = -285 m /35 s     V= -8.14ms  (<em>Velocity</em>)
