Average speed for the entire trip, both ways, is
(Total distance) divided by (total time) .
We don't know the distance from his house to the gift store,
and we don't know how long it took him to get back.
We'll need to calculate these.
-- On the trip TO the store, it took him 50 minutes, at 6 mph.
-- 50 minutes is 5/6 of an hour.
-- Traveling at 6 mph for 5/6 of an hour, he covered 5 miles.
-- The gift store is 5 miles from his house.
-- The total trip both ways was 10 miles.
-- On the way BACK home from the store, he moved at 12 mph.
-- Going 5 miles at 12 mph, it takes (5/12 hour) = 25 minutes.
Now we have everything we need.
Distance:
Going: 5 miles
Returning: 5 miles
Total 10 miles
Time:
Going: 50 minutes
Returning: 25 minutes
Total: 75 minutes = 1.25 hours
Average speed for the whole trip =
(total distance) / (total time)
= (10 miles) / (1.25 hours)
= (10 / 1.25) miles/hours
= 8 miles per hour
Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
End behaviour refers to the asymptotes, which both exponential functions have the same one at y = 2. However, they have different y - intercepts. The first one has a y - intercept of 4 and the second one has a y - intercept of 6. Thus, the answer is D.
Answer:
A 7,4.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The given polynomial is :
p(x) = 5-10x
We need to find the zeros of the above polynomial. To find it, put p(x) = 0
5-10x = 0
Subtract 5 from both sides
5-10x-5=0-5
-10x=-5
or
10x=5
Divide both sides by 10.
x = 0.5 = 1/2
Hence, the zeros of the polynomial is 1/2.
"twelve decreased by twice a number" ---> 12 - 2x
"8 times the sum of number and 4" ---> 8(x + 4)
12 - 2x = 8(x + 4)
12 - 2x = 8x + 32 (distributive property)
12 = 10x + 32 (add 2x to both sides)
-20 = 10x (subtract 32 from both sides)
x = -2 (divide both sides by 10)
That's answer.
