The slope would be -65 and this would indicate the the car is going 65 miles per hour, as it is being subtracted from the distance.
Your answer would be C

Answer:

m=-65; The car is traveling 65 miles per hour.       Option C

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that, time 't' and distance 'd'.

Equation for distance 'd' in terms of time 't' is given by;

d = 420 - 65t

d = -65t  + 420

We need to find the slope of linear equation.

Slope is coefficient of t, that is -65

So, slope of the line (m) = -65

Here practical definition of slope is, car covered the distance in a hour is 65 miles.

So, m = -65

and the car is travelling 65 miles per hour.

That's the final answer.

It has taken me 32 minutes to drive 48 km. If the total length of my journey is 146 km and I
pentagon [3]
Answer: 1h and 25min

To find how long you can drive in a minute we do 48 divided by 32 = 1.5. So it takes 1 min to drive 1.5km

Then we 146 divided by 1.5 = 97 and a third to find out how long it takes to drive 146km.

Then we convert it to hours to get 1h and 57min.

Then we - 32 because we already drove 32min. 1h and 57min - 32 = 1h and 25min

What is the inverse one to one function of f(x) = square root of x-2???
alexira [117]
f(x) = \sqrt{x - 2} \\y = \sqrt{x - 2} \\y^{2} = (\sqrt{x - 2})^{2} \\y^{2} = x - 2 \\x^{2} = y - 2 \\x^{2} + 2 = y \\x^{2} + 2 = f^{-1}(x)
