Answer:
B) f(x) = x if x ≤ -2
2 if x > -2
Step-by-step explanation:
B) f(x) = x if x ≤ -2 (The x and y coordinate have the same value)
2 if x > -2
Nice so
remember
t=d/s
a(b+c)=ab+ac
time=distance/speed
lets say s=jamie's normal speed
speed agains wind=s-4
speed with wind=s+4
30 miles is agains wind
distance is 54 with wind
t=d/s
t=30/(s-4)
t=54/(s+4)
since they are both equal to t, set them equal to each other
30/(s-4)=54/(s+4)
multipliy both sides by (s+4)(s-4)
30(s+4)=54(s-4)
distribute
30s+120=54s-216
subtract 30s from both sides
120=24s-216
add 216 to both sides
336=24s
divide both sides by 24
14=s
answer is 14 miles per hour without wind
You can do pencil and paper or use a calculator if necessary
Your answer is <em>3.5</em>
To solve this you need to know Pythagorean theorem.
First, EG is 24, so the halfway points are 12. Knowing Pythagorean triples, you can use 5,12,13 and 12,16,20.
DF = 5+16
DF = 21
If you don't know Pythagorean triples, I have worked it out on the image attached.
