Answer:

She spent 0.5 hrs running to her secret laboratory and 1.5 hrs flying using her jetpacks.

Step-by-step explanation:

Eudora ran from her home to her secret laboratory at an average speed of 12 km/h. The journey with her jet pack to her school has an average speed of 76km/hr. Eudora traveled a distance of 120 kilometers.  This means the total journey when she ran and flew she could cover a distance of 120 km and the entire trip took 2 hours.

The trip can be categories into two

when she ran to her secret laboratory

Speed = 12 km/hr

let the time she ran to her  secret laboratory  = a

speed = distance /time

distance = speed × time

distance = 12 × a

distance = 12a

when she flew to her school

speed = 76 km/hr

The time she flew to her school = 2 - a

speed = distance /time

distance = speed × time

distance = 76 × 2 - a

distance = 152 - 76a

Total distance of her entire trip = 120 km

total time = 2 hrs

Total distance can be represented as

12a +  152 - 76a = 120

-64a = 120 - 152

-64a = -32

divide both side by -64

a = -32/-64

a = 0.5 hrs

she spent 0.5 hrs running to her secret laboratory

Time she flew with her jetpacks = 2 - a = 2 - 0.5 = 1.5 hrs

Determine the average rate of change of the function between the given values of the variable. g(x)=2/x ; x=4, x=a
IrinaK [193]
Average rate of change implies the quotient f(4)-f(a)/4-a which equals (1/2-a/2)/4-a=(1-a)/(8-2a) on (4,a)

Type the correct answer in the box. Write the standard form of the quadratic equation modeled by the points shown in the table b
White raven [17]
Y =ax² + bx +c

1) Point (0,7)

7 = a*0² +b*0 +c
c = 7
y=ax² + bx + 7

2) Point (1,4)
4=a*1² + b*1 + 7, ----> 4 = a +b + 7, ------> a+b= - 3
3) Point (2, 5)
5=a*2² + b*2 + 7, ----> 5=4a+2b +7,---> -2=4a+2b, ----> -1=2a + b

4)  a+b= - 3, ----> b= -3 - a (substitute in the second equation)
    2a+b= -1
2a - 3 - a = -1, ----> a - 3 = -1, a =2

5) a+b= - 3
    2 + b = -3
b = -5

y=2x² - 5x + 7

What is the completely factored from of 9x2+24x+16
dezoksy [38]

Answer:

(3x+4)(3x+4) is factor of given expression.

B is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given an expression 9x^2+24x+16

Formula: a^2+2ab+b^2=(a+b)^2

First we write each term as perfect square as formula.

\Rightarrow 9x^2+24x+16

\Rightarrow (3x)^2+2\cdot 3x\cdot 4+4^2

Using formula , a=3x and b=4

\therefore (3x)^2+2\cdot 3x\cdot 4+4^2=(3x+4)^2

Now we write same number two times.

Hence, (3x+4)(3x+4) is factor of given expression.
