Enrique leaves his house and starts to run at an average speed of 6 miles per hour. Half an hour later, Enrique’s younger (and f

aster) brother leaves the house to catch up to Enrique running at an average speed of 8 miles per hour. How long will it take for Enrique’s brother to run half the distance that Enrique has run?

Answer:

t= 0.8 hr  or 48 min.

Step-by-step explanation:

Speed of Enrique= 6 mph

Half and hour late it means that after 1/2 hr.

Speed of Enrique brother = 8 mph

  Lets take Enrique cover x distance in time t hr .

So

x = 6 t                           ------------ 1

Then his brother will cover x/2 distance in time (t-1/2) hr.

So

x/2 = 8 (t-1/2)                   -----------------2

Now from equation 1 and 2

6 t  = 16 (t-1/2)

6 t = 16 t - 8

So t= 0.8 hr  or 48 min.

It means that his brother will take 0.8 hr to cover half of distance cover by  Enrique .

What’s the equation of a slope of 5/7 and a y-intercept of -3
Drupady [299]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

in y = mx + b form, the slope is in the m position and the y intercept is in the b position.

y = mx + b

slope(m) = 5/7

y int (b) = -3

y = 5/7x - 3 <===

What is the vertical asymptote of this function?
liraira [26]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

If y = log x is the basic function, let's see the transformation rule(s):

Then,

1. y = log (x-a) is the original shifted a units to the right.

2. y = log x + b is the original shifted b units up

Hence, from the equation, we can say that this graph is:

** 2 units shifted right (with respect to original), and

** 10 units shifted up (with respect to original)

<u><em>only, left or right shift affects vertical asymptotes.</em></u>

Since, the graph of y = log x has x = 0 as the vertical asymptote and the transformed graph is shifted 2 units right (to x = 2), x = 2 is the new vertical asymptote.

Answer choice D is right.

dem82 [27]
41/6-5/6 = 36/6
36/6= 6

So 5/6 would need to be subtracted to develop a fraction that divides to 6
