Answer:

The average speed of the trip there is <u>86 mph.</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Time taken to reach Portland = 3 hours

Time taken to come beck from Portland = 6 hours

Average speed for the returning trip = 43 mph

Distance traveled for the returning trip can be obtained by multiplying the returning speed by returning time. Therefore, distance for returning trip is:

D=speed\times time=43\times 6=258\ miles

Now, distance traveled for the return trip is same as going to the trip.

So, distance traveled by Jessica going to Portland = 258 miles.

Time taken to go there = 3 hours

Therefore, speed of the trip there is given as the ratio of distance and time and is given as:

\textrm{Average speed}=\frac{Distance}{Time}\\\textrm{Average speed}=\frac{258}{3}=86\ mph

Therefore, the average speed of Jessica's car to go to Portland is 86 mph.

What is the vertex of the absolute value function defined by ƒ(x) = |x - 2| - 7?
inn [45]
<h3><u>Explanation</u></h3>
  • Modulus Function

y = a |x  - h|  + k

The structure or equation is similar to a quadratic function.

The value of a determines the slope of graph.

Tthe value of h determines the horizontal shift of graph.

The value of k determines the vertical shift of the graph.

From the given equation,

f(x) =  |x - 2|  - 7

We can say that the graph shifts to the right 2 units and shifts down 7 units. Hence the vertex would be at x = 2 and y = -7. It can be written in coordinate form as (2,-7).

<h3><u>Answer</u></h3>

<u>\large{(2,-7)}</u>
