The Mason family drove round trip from their house to their son's college campus in 5 in a half hours. If the distance from the

Mason's home to their son's college campus is 154 miles away, what was their average speed?

Average speed is given by total distance traveled divided the total time taken.

Given that the distance from Mason's home to their son's college campus is 154 miles, then a round trip (to and fro) <span>from their house to their son's college campus will be 2 * 154 = 308 miles and the journey took 5 and a half hours.

Therefore, the average speed is given by:

</span>Average\, speed= \frac{308\, miles}{5.5\, hours} =56\, miles/hour<span>
</span>

Simplify the midpoint of PR.<br> Q (2b, 2c)<br> R (2a+2b, 2c)<br> Pl(0,0)<br> S (2a, 0)
Tomtit [17]

Answer:

The midpoint of PR is;

(a + b, c)

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to get the coordinates of the midpoint of PR

To get these, we make use of the midpoint formula

Mathematically, that will be;

(x,y) = (x1+y1)/2, (x2+y2)/2

(x1,y1) = (0,0)

(x2,y2) = (2a+2b, 2c)

The midpoint is thus;

(2a+2b)/2 , 2c/2

= (a + b, c )

Describe the relationship between two variables when the correlation coefficient r is one of the following. (a) near –1 strong
zepelin [54]

Answer:

a) strong negative linear correlation.

b) Weak or no linear correlation.

c) strong positive linear correlation.

Step-by-step explanation:

The correlation coefficient r measures the strength and direction (positive or negative) of two variables. The correlation coefficient r is always between -1 and 1. When the coefficient r is negative then the direction of the correlation is downhill (negative) and when it's positive then it's an uphill correlation (positive). Similarly, as the coefficient is closer to -1 or 1 the correlation is stronger, with zero being a non linear relationship.

Now back to the question:

a) Near -1: as we said before, this means an strong negative (-1) linear correlation.

b) Near 0: weak or no linear correlation (we cannot say if its positive or negative because we don't know it it's near zero from the right (positive numbers) or the left (negative numbers)

c) Near 1: strong positive (close to +1) linear correlation

The sum of the lengths of any two sides of a triangle must be greater than the third side. if a triangle has one side that is 8
BartSMP [9]

1st Side: 8

2nd Side: 2x - 1

3rd Side: x

(8) + (2x - 1) > x            (2x - 1) + x > 8                        (x) + (8) > 2x - 1

       2x + 7 > x                     3x - 1 > 8                                8  > x - 1

            2x > -7                         3x > 9                                9  > x

             x > -3.5 (disregard)       x > 3                                 x < 9

3rd Side: x  ⇒ (3 < x < 9)

2nd Side: 2x - 1 ⇒ 2(3) - 1 < x < 2(9) - 1   ⇒   5 < x < 17

Answer: the 3rd side must be between 3 and 9, the 2nd side must be between 5 and 17

Find x in This equation.<br> 2x+2=-4(x-5)
san4es73 [151]

Hey there!

2x + 2 = -4(x - 5)

2x + 2 = -4(x) - 4(-5)

2x + 2 = -4x + 20

ADD 4x to BOTH SIDES

2x + 2 + 4x = -4x + 20 + 4x

SIMPLIFY IT!

6x + 2 = 20

SUBTRACT 18 to BOTH SIDES

6x + 2 - 2 = 20 - 2

CANCEL out: 2 - 2 because it give you 0

KEEP: 20 - 2 because it help solve for the x-value

NEW EQUATION: 6x = 20 - 2

SIMPLIFY IT!

6x = 18

DIVIDE 6 to BOTH SIDES

6x/6 = 18/6

CANCEL out: 6/6 because it give you 1

KEE: 18/6 because it help solve for the x-value

NEW EQUATION: x = 18/6

SIMPLIFY IT!

x = 3

Therefore, your answer is: x = 3

Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!

Solve the following system:<br> y=1<br> y=-6x-5
Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

x = -1

y = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>Since it gives you "y", plug in the number given into the equation:</em></u>

y = -6x - 5

1 = -6x - 5

<u><em>Then, add 5 to both sides:</em></u>

1 = -6x - 5

+5       + 5

________

6 = -6x

<em><u>Divide both sides by -6:</u></em>

6 = -6x

-1 = x

So now you have, x = -1 and y = 1
