Since he must not exceed 8 hours driving in a day:
Let the distance of the picnic be = x km.

Therefore  time for forward journey  =  x / 60
Return journey                                   =  x / 50

The total trip should not exceed 8 hours.
Therefore:              x / 60 + x / 50  <= 8.      LCM = 300

Taking LCM and multiplying on both sides:
                                5x  +  6x  <=  8(300)
                                       11x    <=  2400
                                           x    <=    2400/11
                                           x   <=  218.18
The picnic spot must be less than or equal to 218.18 km.

What is the graph of the function rule?<br><br> y = 3x - 2<br><br> Choose from the pictures
bulgar [2K]

we have

y=3x-2

we know that

this is the equation of a line, to identify which is the graph we will proceed to determine the points of intersection with the coordinate axes

1) <u>Find the y-intercept</u>

the y-intercept is when the value of x is equal to zero

For x=0

find the value of y

y=3*0-2

y=-2

2) <u>Find the x-intercept </u>

the x-intercept is when the value of y is equal to zero

For y=0

find the value of x

0=3x-2

x=(2/3)

therefore

the answer is the option B ( see the attached figure)

Tom throws a ball into the air. The ball travels on a parabolic path represented by the equation , where represents the height o
tigry1 [53]

Answer:

2.5 second

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation is missing in the question.

The equation is,  h=-8t^2+40t  , where 'h' is the height and 't' is time measured in second.

Now we know to reach its maximum height, h in t seconds, the derivative of h with respect to time t is given by :

\frac{dh}{dt} =0

Now the differentiating the equation with respect to time t, we get

\frac{dh}{dt}=\frac{d}{dt}(-8t^2+40t)

\frac{dh}{dt}=-16t+40

For maximum height,  \frac{dh}{dt} =0

So, -16t+40=0

 \Rightarrow 16t=40

\Rightarrow t=\frac{40}{16}

\Rightarrrow t = 2.5

Therefore, the ball takes 2.5 seconds time to reach the maximum height.
