To solve the problem:

<span>Let f = distance one way distance on level ground</span>

<span>
Let h = distance rode on the hill</span>

<span>
Write a time equation; where Time = distance/speed:</span>

<span>

level time + uphill time + downhill time + level time = 1hr</span>

<span>
</span>

<span>f/9 + h/6 + h/18 + f/9 = 1 hr</span>

<span>

Multiply equation by 18 to get rid of the denominators</span>

<span>
</span>

 

2f + 3h + h + 2f = 18


4f + 4h = 18


Simplify by dividing this by 4


<span>f + h = 4.5 miles is took her to get to Jon’s house.</span>

Igoryamba

Answer:

The weight need to lose in final weeks is 1.8 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

we are given

A boxer needs to lose 3 1/2 kg in a month to be able to compete as a flyweight

so, weight need to lose

=3\frac{1}{2}kg

so, lost weight is

=55.5-53.8kg

=1.7kg

So,

weight need to lose in final weeks = (weight need to lose)-( lost weight)

we can plug values

and we get

weight need to lose in final weeks is

=3.5-1.7

=1.8kg

Answer:

x = 79

Step-by-step explanation:

This is an isosecles triangle so the bottom angles have equal measure

and since the sum of interior angles in a triangle is equal to 180

2x + 32 = 180 subtract 32 from both sides

2x = 158 divide both sides by 2

x = 79

Each output value is equal to the square of the input value minus<br> five
Ivenika [448]

i think that A pair of an input value and its corresponding output value is called an ordered pair and can be written as (a, b). In an ordered pair the first number, the input a, corresponds to the horizontal axis and the second number, the output b, corresponds to the vertical axis.

We can thus write our values as ordered pairs

(0, 0) - This ordered pair is also referred to as the origin

(1, 2.5)

(2, 5)

(3, 7.5)

These ordered pairs can then be plotted into a graph.
