1140/240 = 4.75 hours

The speed is the ration of the distance to time

speed=240 m/h
distance=1140 mile

so the time elapsed= distance ÷ speed = 1140 / 240 = 4.75 hours

Suppose x represents an objects weight on Earth. Write two expressions: one that you can use to find the objects weight on Mars

tatyana61 [14]

The weight of an object is the product of its mass and the acceleration of gravity.
If g[e] is the acceleration of gravity on earth, and g[M] the same for Mars and g[m] the same for the moon,
then m[M]=m[e]g[M]/g[e] and m[m]=m[e]g[m]/g[e] where m[ ] denotes mass. Note that weight=mg (measured in newtons) while mass is in kilograms.
If g[M]=g[e]/3 and g[m]=g[e]/6 approximately. Then the weight of an object on Mars will be about a third of what it is on earth, while on the moon it would be about a sixth of what it is on earth.

Find the absolute maximum and absolute minimum for f (x )equals x cubed minus 2 x squared minus 4 x plus 2 on the interval 0 les

sineoko [7]

Answer:

maximum: 2
minimum: -6

Step-by-step explanation:

The extrema will be at the ends of the interval or at a critical point within the interval.

The derivative of the function is ...

f'(x) = 3x² -4x -4 = (x -2)(3x +2)

It is zero at x=-2/3 and at x=2. Only the latter critical point is in the interval. Since the leading coefficient of this cubic is positive, the right-most critical point is a local minimum. The coordinates of interest in this interval are ...

f(0) = 2

f(2) = ((2 -2)(2) -4)(2) +2 = -8 +2 = -6

f(3) = ((3 -2)(3) -4)(3) +2 = -3 +2 = -1

The absolute maximum on the interval is f(0) = 2.

The absolute minimum on the interval is f(2) = -6.
