This can be solve by establishing equations.
let x be the miles mrs. storey drove
y be the miles mr storey drovee
 
the first equation is
y = 3x

second equation
x + y = 3200
then substitute equation 1

x + 3x = 3200
4x = 3200
x = 800 miles mrs storey drove
y = 3x = 2400 miles mr storey drove

The sum of Ali and Mel's age is 39. If Mel is 3 years younger than twice Ali's age, how old is Mel?
olga55 [171]

Answer:

Age of Mel is 25 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that,the sum of Ali and Mel's age is 39. If Mel is 3 years younger than twice Ali's age.

Let 'x' be the Ali's age  and 'y' be the Mel's age

<u>To find the value of x and y</u>

sum of Ali and Mel's age is 39

⇒ x + y = 39    ------(1)

  Mel is 3 years younger than twice Ali's age

⇒ y = 2x - 3   -------(2)

⇒  2x - y = 3  -----(3)

(1) + (3) ⇒  

 x + y = 39

2x - y = 3

----------------

3x   = 42

x = 42/3 = 14

y = 2x - 3 = 14*2 - 3  = 25

Therefore the age of Ali = 14

Age of Mel = 25

Please choose answer choice a,b,c or d
dmitriy555 [2]

Answer:

A. -4

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope is rise over run, or y2-y1 / x2-x1.

\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1} = \frac{-4-8}{2--1} =\frac{-12}{3} = -4

<u>The slope is A. -4.</u>

Let's see--does that make sense? A slope of four would be pretty steep, and that matches the graph. It also should be negative because the line goes down and to the right, not up and to the right, so -4 makes sense!

Given h of x equals negative 2 times the square root of x minus 3 end root, which of the following statements describes h(x)?
Yuliya22 [10]

Using translation concepts, it is found that the correct option regarding the function is:

The function h(x) is decreasing on the interval (3, ∞).

<h3>What is a translation?</h3>

A translation is represented by a change in the function graph, according to operations such as multiplication or sum/subtraction in it's definition.

The parent function is given by:

f(x) = \sqrt{x}

Which increases on (0, ∞).

The translated function is given by:

g(x) = -2\sqrt{x - 3}

With the translation, the domain is now (-3, ∞), and the function is decreasing, hence the correct option is given by:

The function h(x) is decreasing on the interval (3, ∞).
