Answer:

80mph

Step-by-step explanation:

you add the time which is 3 and 2 1/4 hours. Then you look at the equation d = r/t. d = distance, r = rate, and t = time. Then you put them in there places like this, 420 = (2 1/4 + 3)/ r. 2 1/4 + 3 = 5.25. Then 420/5.25 to get 80 mph

Train A:

Distance (s) = 420 miles
Time (t) = 3 hours
Speed (v) = distance ÷ time = 420 ÷ 3 = 140 miles/hour

Train B: 

Distance (s) = 420 miles
Time (t) = 2.25 hours
Speed (v) = distance ÷ time = 420 ÷ 2.25 = 186.7 miles/hour

A tourist in France wants to visit 8 different cities. If the route is randomly selected, what is the probability that she will
Harlamova29_29 [7]

Answer:

Probability p( selecting 8 cities alphabetically) = 2.48×10^-5

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of possible ways of choosing 8 cities=Permutation P(n,k) = n!/(n-k)!

P(8,8)= 8!/(8-8)! = 8! = 40,320

Probability (selecting 8 cities alphabetically) = 1/40320 = 2.48×10^-5

How do you solve this? Show work and answer
Naddik [55]

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

2b+1=16−3b

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.

2b+1=16−3b

2b+1=16+−3b

2b+1=−3b+16

Step 2: Add 3b to both sides.

2b+1+3b=−3b+16+3b

5b+1=16

Step 3: Subtract 1 from both sides.

5b+1−1=16−1

5b=15

Step 4: Divide both sides by 5.

5b/5=15/5

<em>answer: b=3</em>

Show all work to identify the asymptotes and zero of the faction f(x) = 4x/x^2 - 16.
Reptile [31]

Answer:

  • asymptotes: x = -4, x = 4
  • zeros: x = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

The vertical asymptotes of the rational expression are the places where the denominator is zero:

  x^2 -16 = 0

  (x -4)(x +4) = 0 . . . . . true for x=4, x=-4

  x = 4, x = -4 are the equations of the vertical asymptotes

__

The zeros of a rational expression are the places where the numerator is zero:

  4x = 0

  x = 0 . . . . . . divide by 4
