Total distance = 200 miles

Time needed for the first 100 miles
= 100 ÷ 40 = 2.5 hours

Time needed for the second 100 miles
= 100 ÷ 50 = 2 hours

Total time = 2.5 + 2 = 4.5 hours

Average speed = 200 ÷ 4.5 hours = 44.4 miles per hour

Heyo! I need some help, please. What is the x coordinate if (x, 17) is on a line that passes through the points (1, 2) and (-1,
expeople1 [14]

Answer:

  • x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>The line with points (1,2) and (-1,-8). Work out its equation.</u>

  • y = mx + b

<u>The slope is:</u>

  • m = (-8 - 2)/(-1 - 1) = -10/-2 = 5

<u>To find the y intercept, substitute x and y-xoordinates of point (1,2):</u>

  • 2 = 5(1) + b
  • b = 2 - 5
  • b = -3

<u>The line is:</u>

  • y = 5x - 3

<u>Point (x, 17), substitute y-coordinate and solve for x</u>

  • 17 = 5x - 3
  • 5x = 17 + 3
  • 5x = 20
  • x = 20/5
  • x = 4

A company logo is shaped like an equilateral triangle with 6-inch long sides. What is the height of the logo? Round to the neare
blondinia [14]

Answer:

5.2 in

Step-by-step explanation:

An equilateral triangle is a triangle with 3 equal sides

Divide the equilateral triangle into two congruent triangles and use Pythagoras theorem to find the height

The Pythagoras theorem : a² + b² = c²

where a =  height

b = base = 6 in / 2 = 3 in  

c =  hypotenuse = 6 in

6² = 3² + h²

h = 36 - 9 = 27

√27 = 5.196 inch

to the nearest tenth = 5.2 in

the tenth is the first number after the decimal place. To convert to the nearest tenth, look at the number after the tenth (the hundredth). If the number is greater or equal to 5, add 1 to the tenth figure. If this is not the case, add zero

Eight kids got to go to the water park for $60. How many students could go for $195? Explain how you know.
Naddika [18.5K]
60 goes into 195 so 60*3 is 180 and it can't go any higher so 4 is the answer

What is 4(2x-1)= -2(3x+16)
adoni [48]
Divide both sides by -2
-2(2x-1)=3x+16
distribute
-4x+2=3x+16
add 4x to both sides
2=7x+16
minus 16 from both sides
-14=7x
divide both sides by 7
-2=x
