Answer:

Option C. 40(1.25 - t)

Step-by-step explanation:

Eduardo's average speed on his commute to work = 55 miles per hour

On the way home his average speed was = 40 miles per hour

Round trip took him 1.25 hours.

Let t be the total time taken by Eduardo for the trip to work.

Then time taken on the way home = Total time for round trip - Time taken from work to home

                                                          = (1.25 - t) hours

Average speed = \frac{\text{Distance}}{\text{Time}}

40 = \frac{\text{Distance}}{(1.25-t)}

Now the distance for his trip home can be represented by

Distance = 40(1.25 - t)

Option C. 40(1.25 - t) will be he answer.

Answer:

40(1.25-t)

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 3 components to consider; time, speed and distance

Time and Speed are given.

The distance has to be calculated.

  • Speed to work = 55 miles per hour
  • Time to work = 1.25-T
  • Speed to home = 40 miles per hour
  • Time to home = 1.25-t
  • Total Time = T + t = 1.25

<u>Distance for trip to home</u>

Speed = Distance/Time

40 = Total Distance/1.25-t

Total Distance = 40(1.25-t)

<em>Therefore, 40(1.25-t) is the correct answer.</em>

( adding and subtracting unlike fractions in word problems)
PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer:

2/3 cup

Step-by-step explanation:

first you need to convert the fractions so that they have the same denominator (1/3 turns into 2/6)

then you just add up the numerators (2+2=4..... 4/6)

you can stop there or you can simplify it (4/6 turns into 2/3)

The inverse, f'(x), of f(x) =
astraxan [27]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

f(x) =  \frac{x + 5}{x}

So

f(2) = \frac{2 + 5}{2}  \\  =  \frac{7}{2}

Now

{f}^{ - 1} (x) =  \frac{5}{x - 1}

So

{f}^{ - 1} (2) =  \frac{5}{2 - 1} \\  =  \frac{5}{ 1}   \\  = 5

Hope it will help :)❤
