If we set the unknown distance (in miles) as x, then we set up an equation according to the data, we can solve for x.

Time taken to go to resort : x/48
Time taken to return : x/40
Total time = x/48+x/40 = 11
Solve for x
common multiple between 48 and 40 = 240
so 
5x/240 + 6x/240 = 11
(5x+6x)/240 = 11
11x  = 11*240, => x=240
Distance from home to resort is 240 miles

Which one of the following is not closed under the operation being performed
Sergeu [11.5K]
Remember that polynomials are closed under addition, subtraction, and multiplication, but they are not closed under division. The only division you have there is B; therefore the correct answer is B.

A. (14x-2)3(x-2)=14 x^{2} -90x+10. The result is still a polynomial; therefore, answer A is incorrect.

B. \frac{(14x-2)}{3(x-2)} =  \frac{14}{3} with a remainder of 26. The result is not a polynomial anymore; therefore, B is the correct answer.

C. (14x-2)+3(x+2)=17x+4. The result is still a polynomial; therefore, answer C is incorrect.

D. (14x-2)+3(x+2)=17x+4. The result is still a polynomial; therefore, answer D is incorrect.

Y=-4x+6<br> Find an equation for the inverse relation
kherson [118]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

y = -4x + 6.....switch x and y and solve for y

x = -4y + 6 ....subtract 6 from both sides

x - 6 = -4y....divide by -4 on both sides

(x - 6) / -4 = y or y = -1/4x + 3/2 <====
