Answer:

16.364 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Speed of Claire = 6 miles per hour

Speed of Megan= 5 miles per hour

Distance from camp site to out post = 18 miles

Time for Claire to travel=18/6= 3 hours

Time for Megan to travel = 18/5 = 3.6 hours

The time they meet will be equal

Claire distance= 18 + x

Megan distance = 18-x

Claire time =( 18+x)/6

Megan Tim =( 18-x)/5

(18+x)/6 =(18-x)/5

5(18+x)= 6(18-x)

90 +5x = 108-6x

11x=18

X=18/11

X=1.636 Miles

So the distance from the Outpost to where they meet = 18-1.636

= 16.364 miles

2(x-3)-8< -4 I need a explanation and the answer please.
tresset_1 [31]

Answer:

The solution to the inequality is:

x

The number line solution graph is also attached below.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the inequality

2(x-3)-8< -4

Add 8 to both sides

2\left(x-3\right)-8+8

2\left(x-3\right)

Divide both sides by 2

\frac{2\left(x-3\right)}{2}

x-3

Add 3 to both sides

x-3+3

x

Thus, the solution to the inequality is:

x

The number line solution graph is also attached below.

PLEASE HELPP I AM FAILING AND I NEED THIS ASAP!!! TYSM
Lana71 [14]

Answer:

See below for answers

Step-by-step explanation:

Do you mean f(x)=2sin(x-1) or f(x)=2sin(x) -1?

Use the formula f(x)=asin(bx+c)+d where |a| is the amplitude, -\frac{c}{b} is the phase shift, d is the vertical shift, and the period is \frac{2\pi}{|b|}.

Assuming your first case is true, the amplitude would be |a|=|2|=2, your period is \frac{2\pi}{|1|}=2\pi, and your midline/vertical shift is d=0.

Assuming your second case is true, everything but the vertical shift stays the same. It would be d=-1 in this case.

Mr. Hammond is the volunteer coordinator for a company that puts on running races. Last year, the company organized 7 short race
worty [1.4K]

Answer:

28 short race volunteers

76 long race volunteers

Step-by-step explanation:

Let :

Short races = a

Long races = b

LAST YEAR:

7a + 8b = 804 - - - - (1)

THIS YEAR:

11a + 5b = 688 - - - (2)

Multiply (1) by 5 and (2) by 8

35a + 40b = 4020

88a + 40b = 5504

Subtract

-53a = - 1484

a = 1484 / 53

a = 28

Put a = 28 in equation (1)

7(28) + 8b = 804

196 + 8b = 804

8b = 804 - 196

8b = 608

b = 76

28 short race volunteers

76 long race volunteers
