Answer:

Henry's balloon was farther from the town at the beginning and Henry's balloon traveled more quickly.

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance of Tasha's balloon from the town is represented by the function y = 8x+ 20 ............. (1)

Where y is the distance in miles from the town and x represents the time of fly in hours.

So, at the start of the journey i.e. at x = 0, y = 20 miles {From equation (1)} from the town.

Again, Tasha's balloon is traveling at a rate of 8 miles per hour.

Now, Henry's balloon begins 30 miles from the town and is 48 miles from the town after 2 hours.

So, Henry's balloon traveling with the speed of  miles per hour.

Therefore, Henry's balloon was farther from the town at the beginning i.e. 30 miles from the town. And Henry's balloon traveled more quickly i.e at the rate of 9 miles per hour.

(2, –2), slope is 1.4
DaniilM [7]

y = 1.4x - 4.8

the equation of a line in ' slope - intercept form ' is

y = mx + c  ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

the partial equation is y = 1.4x + c

to find c, substitute (2, - 2) into the partial equation

- 2 = 2.8 + c ⇒ c = - 2 - 2.8 = - 4.8

y = 1.4x - 4.8 is the equation in slope- intercept form

If we consider the toss of four coins as an experiment, how many equally likely outcomes does the sample space have?
Arturiano [62]
There are 16 possible outcomes.

This is found by taking the number of possible outcomes for each toss, 2, and raising it to the 4th power (for 4 tosses):

2⁴ = 2*2*2*2 = 16

Solve (x + 5)2 = 48.
natita [175]

Answer:

x = -5  ±4sqrt(3)

Step-by-step explanation:

(x + 5)^2 = 48

Take the square root of each side

sqrt((x + 5)^2) = ±sqrt(48)

x+5 = ±sqrt(16*3)

x+5 = ±4sqrt(3)

Subtract 5 from each side

x = -5  ±4sqrt(3)
