On a town map, each unit of the coordinate plane represents 1 mile. Three branches of a bank are located at A(−3, 1), B(1, 4), a

nd C(5, −2). A bank employee drives from Branch A to Branch B and then drives halfway to Branch C before getting stuck in traffic. What is the minimum total distance the employee may have driven before getting stuck in traffic? Round to the nearest tenth of a mile if necessary. The minimum total distance the employee may have driven before getting stuck in traffic is?​

Answer: 8.6 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance between Branch A and Branch B is given by the Pythagoras theorem

AB² = (Vertical Distance)² + (Horizontal Distance)²

AB² = (4-1)² + (1 - -3)²

AB² = 3² + 4²

AB² = 9 + 16

AB² = 25

AB = 5

BC² = (Vertical distance)² + (Horizontal distance)²

BC² = (-2 - 4)² + (5-1)²

BC² = (-6)² + (4)²

BC² = 36 + 16

BC² = 52

BC = 7.21

Half way of BC = 7.21 ÷ 2 = 3.6 miles

Total distance travelled from A to B and then halfway from B to C is 3.6+5 = 8.6 miles

Find the average rate of change of f(x)=2x^2-7x from x=2 to x=6
scoundrel [369]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The average rate of change of a function f between a and b (a< b) is :

R =[f(b)-f(a)] ÷ (a-b)

●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●●

Let R be the average rate of change of this function

f(6) = 2×6^2 - 7×6 = 72-42 = 30

f(2) = 2×2^2 - 7×2 = 8-14 = -6

R = [f(6) - f(2)]÷ (6-2)

R = [30-(-6)] ÷ 4

R = -36/4

R = -9

■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■

The average rate of change of this function is -9

Write the formula to calculate how much dough is prepared in x hours.
spin [16.1K]

Answer: D(x) = 2kg/h*x

where x is the number of hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

The information that we have is:

in 5 hours, we can prepare 10kg of dough.

With this, we can find the rate per hour, to do this we find the quotient:

R = 10kg/5h = 2kh/h

This meeans that in one hour, we can make 2kg of dough.

Then, in x hours, we can make x times 2kg of dough, then the equation will be:

D(x) = 2kg/h*x

where x is the number of hours.

the system of equations is graphed on the coordinate plane y=-1/2x-1 and y=1/4x-4 enter the coordinates of the solution to the s
pochemuha

Answer:

The coordinates are ( 4, -3).

Step-by-step explanation:

We can find the coordinates by solving the 2 equations

y =  1/4x-4

y = -1/2x-1

As both left sides of the equation are y we can say:

-1/2x-1 = 1/4x-4

-1/2x - 1/4x = -4 + 1

-3/4 x = -3

x = -3 * -4/3

x = 4.

- and y = 1/4(4) - 4 = -3.
