<span>Chris' average speed is 3.5mph:
Lets take Chris' brother speed = B
then Chris speed = (B+ 1) mph-------given in the question
and:
The average speed for covering 18 miles= chris' average speed + his brother's
average speed = (B+ 1) + B
since Speed = Distance covered / time taken
then average speed for 18 miles can also be found by: 18 miles/3 hours = 6 miles per hour
then we have; (B+ 1) + B = 6mph
(B +1) = (6-B)
B+B = 6-1=5
2B=5
B=5/2=2.5 mph (this is Chris' brother average speed)
Hence Chris' average speed is = B+1= 2.5+1= 3.5mph</span>
2,500 subtracted by 372 equals 2148. 2148 dollars is how much savings he has left.
You had the right idea using the Pythagorean theorem to solve for b.
Problem is for that triangle to work, the 5 and the 2√2 would have to switch places. The length of a leg cannot be larger than the length of the hypotenuse for it to truly be a right triangle.
Pythagorean theorem only works for the right triangles. Only way to "solve this problem would be to bring in complex numbers.
5² + b² = (2√2)²
25 + b² = 2²(√2)²
25 + b² = 4(2)
25 + b² = 8
b² = 8 - 25
b² = - 17
b = √-17
b= (√17i)
Then the problem with THIS is a measurement/distance cannot be negative... which goes against exactly what that complex number i is.
Answer:no
Step-by-step explanation: No, because all the ratios of y to x are not equal.
