Hello there! Your answer should be 4 mph. Reasoning:
2 = (20 - x) * t 
<span>3 = (20 + x ) * t </span>
Time is the same for both equations. Solve for T.
2/(20-x) = 3/(20+x)
<span>the answer is 4 mph.
Please tell me if I was right!</span>

Let wind speed = x mph 

when she rode 2 miles against the wind we have:-
speed = distance / time so
20 - x  = 2 / t -------(1)      where t is the time she took.

when riding with the wind we have 

20 + x = 3 / t--------(2)   adding equations (1) and (2):-

40  =  2/t + 3/t
40 =  5/t
t = 5/40 = 1/8 hr 

x = 20 - 2 / 1/8  = 20 - 16 = 4

Wind speed was 4 mph Answer

Write a formula for fogoh, where f(x) = x + 1, g(x) = - 3x, and h(x) = 5 - X.<br> (fogoh)(x) =
Marina86 [1]

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = x + 1

g(x) = -3x

h(x) = 5-x

find fogoh

first we find fog

f(g(x)) = -3x + 1

then we find fogoh = -3(5-x ) +1

= -15 + 3x +1

= 3x -14

Answer:

<h2>CYLINDER</h2>

Surface Area = 471.2 cm^2

<h2>TRIANGULAR PRISM</h2>

Surface Area = 60.75 m^2

Step-by-step explanation:

<h2>CYLINDER</h2>

The surface area formula for a cylinder is π x diameter x (diameter / 2 + height), where (diameter / 2) is the radius of the base (d = 2 x r), so another way to write it is π x radius x 2 x (radius + height). ( π =3.14 )

FORMULA:

π x 5 x 2 x 15

WORK:

π x 5 = 15.7

15.7 x 2 = 31.4

31.4 x 15 = 471

<h2>TRIANGULAR PRISM</h2>

The surface area formula for a triangular prism is 2 * (height x base / 2) + length x width1 + length x width2 + length x base.

FORMULA:

2 x (2.5 x 1.5/2) + (6 x 4) + (6 x 4) + (6 x 1.5)

WORK:

(2.5 x 1.5) = 3.75/2 = 1.875

1.875 x 2 = 3.75

(6 x 4) = 24

(6 x 4) = 24

(6 x 1.5) = 9

3.75 + 24 + 24 + 9 = 60.75

Find a number that is between 2/7 and 4/11 .
Furkat [3]
To answer this problem, one way is to use the calculator and add directly the two numbers and get the average between the two. The answer is 25/77. We can also get this number by getting the LCM of the denominators which is 77. 2/7 is equal to 22/77 while 4/11 is equal to 28/77. 0.5*(22 +28) is equal to 25. Hence the answer is 25/77.

If a new car is valued at $26,000 and 10 years later it is valued at $7000, then what is the average rate of change
frez [133]

Answer:

The change in value is 19,000 altogether and 1900/year

Step-by-step explanation:

Change in value:

initial value - final value

= $26,000 - $7000

= $19,000

Change in value/year:

change in value/time

= $19,000/10

= $1900/year

Anestetic [448]
First you need to know some rules 2 numbers that are the same with coefficients divided : you differentiate those coeff
and multyplied :you sum up them

12x^8/3x^3= 4x^8-3=4x^5

20^2x=20^x*20^x

m^5*m^-7=m^5-7=m^-2
