Answer:

Helen: 60mph and Anne: 50mph

Step-by-step explanation:

3.2r+2.8(r-10)=332 is the equation that we use, given the information we have.

We distribute and combine like terms and add 28 to both sides and divide by 6.

3.2r+2.8(r-10)=332

3.2r+2.8r-28=332

                6r=360

             6r/6=360/6

                  r=60  So, Helen's speed is 60mph.

Next, we'll solve Anne's speed.

r-10=50

60-10=50  So, Anne's speed is 50mph.

Three out of seven students in the cafeteria line are chosen to answer survey questions. How many different combinations of thre
Hatshy [7]

Answer:

35 possible combinations would be there.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have total of seven students we have to choose three out of those seven

^{n}C_r=\frac{n!}{r!\cdot (n-r)!}

n is the total possibilities n =7 in the given case

And r is the chosen ones

Hence, r=3 in the given case.

Substituting the values of n and r in the formula we get

^{7}C_3

\frac{7!}{3!(7-3)!}

\frac{7!}{3!\cdot 4!}

Using n!=n(n-1)----1

\frac{7\cdot 6\cdot 5\cdot 4!}{3\cdot 2\cdot 1\cdot 4!}

Cancel the  common factor we get

35  possible combinations would be there.

9.) List three things vertical and horizontal lines have in common.
12345 [234]

Answer:

Horizontal lines have a slope of zero, and run parallel to the x axis. Vertical lines have a undefined slope, and run parallel to the y axis. The equation for a horizontal line equals y=c, and the equation for a vertical line equals x=c. If a horizontal line crosses a vertical line the two lines would be perpendicular to one another.

Which polynomials have 2 roots
madreJ [45]

Answer:

Option D

Step-by-step explanation:

Option A

x² - 3x² + 2x² = 0

Therefore, the given polynomial has no roots.

Option B

x² + 2x + 8

By quadratic formula,

x = \frac{-2\pm \sqrt{4-32} }{2}

  = \frac{-2\pm \sqrt{-28} }{2}

Therefore, roots are imaginary and for a polynomial with degree 1 or more than 1, both the roots can't be imaginary.

So the polynomial can't have exactly two roots.

Option C

99x³ - 33x + 1

Since the polynomial is of degree 3, so it will have three roots.

Therefore, the polynomial will not have exactly 2 roots.

Option D

√2x - 3x² + 7√2

By quadratic formula,

x = \frac{-\sqrt{2}\pm\sqrt{(\sqrt{2})^2-4(-3)(7\sqrt{2} )}}{2(-3)}

x = \frac{-\sqrt{2}\pm\sqrt{2+84\sqrt{2} )}}{(-6)}

There are exactly two real roots.

Therefore Option D is the answer.

Option E

4x + 11x - 111

Since this polynomial is of a degree 1.

There will be only one root.
