The length of hours Gilbert drove is 7.5 hours.

The length of hours Brian drove is 4.1 hours.

<u>Step-by-step explanation</u>:

  • Gilbert averaged = 45 miles per hour
  • Brain averaged = 65 miles per hour
  • Total hours = 11.6 hours
  • Total distance = 604 miles

Let 'x' be the hours Gilbert drove.

Let 'y' be the hours Brian drove.

x+y = 11.6  -----(1)

45x+65y = 604 -----(2)

Multiply (1) by 45 and subtract (2) from (1)

 45x+45y = 522

-(<u>45x+65y = 604</u>)

 <u>      -20y = -82 </u>

y = 82/20

y = 4.1 hours

The length of hours Brian drove = 4.1 hours

Substitute y=4.1 in (1)

x+4.1 = 11.6

x = 7.5 hours

The length of hours Gilbert drove = 7.5 hours

Which statement about the polynomial function g(x) is true?
yKpoI14uk [10]

When leading coefficient is 1 , the root will be an integer for g(x) = 0

Option 4 is the right answer.

<h3>What is a Polynomial Function ?</h3>

Functions of independent variable in which the variable can appear more than once with different powers.

\rm g(x) = a_n x^n + a_{n-1}x^{n-1} + ................+ a_o

Let this represents the polynomial function

where \rm a_n \; is\;the \;leading \; coefficient \; a_o \; is \;the\;last \;term

Then the according to rational root theorem ,

The root of the function is given by

\rm \dfrac{p}{q} = \dfrac{factor \;of\; the\; last\; term}{factor \;of \;the\; leading coefficient}

So when leading coefficient is 1 , the root will be an integer for g(x) = 0

Option 4 is the right answer.

If the first chapter of a certain book is 40 pages long and makes up 20% of the book, how many pages does the entire book have?
Setler [38]

Answer:

200

Step-by-step explanation:

20% of a book = 40 pages

100% of a book = x pages

20/100 = 40/x                Cross multiply

20x = 100*40                 Combine the right

20x = 4000                    Divide by 20

20x/20 = 4000/20         Do the division

x = 200                           Answer
