Brady rode his bike 70 miles in 4 hours. He rode at an average speed of 17 miles per hour for t hours and at an average rate of

speed of 22 miles per hour for the rest of the time. How long did Brady ride at the slower speed? Use the variable t to represent the time, in hours, Brady rode at 17 miles per hour.

Answer:

Brady rides at slower speed which is 17 miles/hours for <em><u>3 hours and 36 minutes.</u></em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Brady rode 70 miles in 4 hours.

For t hours he rode at the average rate of 17 miles/hour

For rest of the time he rode at the average rate of 22 miles per hour.

To find the time Braady rode at the slower speed.

Solution:

Total time of riding = 4 hours

Time for which Brady rides at 17 miles/ hour = t  hours

Distance covered in t hours = Speed\times time=17\times t =17t\ miles

So, time for which Brady rides at 22 miles/ hour = (4-t) hours

Distance covered in (4-t) hours = Speed\times time=22\times(4-t) =(88-22t)\ miles

Total distance can be given as:

⇒ 17t+88-22t

Simplifying.

⇒ -5t+88

Total distance given =70 miles.

Thus, the equation to find t can be given as:

-5t+88=70

Subtracting both sides by 88.

-5t+88-88=70-88

-5t=-18

Dividing both sides by -5.

\frac{-5t}{-5}=\frac{-18}{-5}

∴ t=3.6 hours

3.6\ hours = 3\ hour+ (0.6\times 60)\ minutes = 3\ hour\ 36\ minutes

Thus, Brady rides at slower speed which is 17 miles/hours for 3 hours and 36 minutes.

How do i solve 2+49x4+x
qaws [65]

Answer:

Step by step solution :

STEP1:Equation at the end of step 1

((49 • (x4)) - (2•7x2)) + 1 = 0

STEP 2 :

Equation at the end of step2:

(72x4 - (2•7x2)) + 1 = 0

STEP3:Trying to factor by splitting the middle term

 3.1     Factoring  49x4-14x2+1 

The first term is,  49x4  its coefficient is  49 .

The middle term is,  -14x2  its coefficient is  -14 .

The last term, "the constant", is  +1 

Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant   49 • 1 = 49 

Step-2 : Find two factors of  49  whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is   -14 .

     -49   +   -1   =   -50     -7   +   -7   =   -14   That's it

Step-3 : Rewrite the polynomial splitting the middle term using the two factors found in step 2 above,  -7  and  -7 

                     49x4 - 7x2 - 7x2 - 1

Step-4 : Add up the first 2 terms, pulling out like factors :

                    7x2 • (7x2-1)

              Add up the last 2 terms, pulling out common factors :

                     1 • (7x2-1)

Step-5 : Add up the four terms of step 4 :

                    (7x2-1)  •  (7x2-1)

             Which is the desired factorization

Step-by-step explanation:

A side of the triangle below has been extended to form an exterior angle of 128°. Find the value of x.
denis23 [38]

Answer:

x = 104

Step-by-step explanation:

The exterior angle is equal to the sum of the opposite interior angles

24+x = 128

Subtract 24 from each side

24+x-24 =128 -24

x =104
