Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The time for each canoe is 3.5 hours

The total distance traveled by the first canoe is not known. Nor is the distance for the second canoe. We do know that the difference is 5.25 miles.

So let the rate of the slower canoe = x

Let the rate for the second canoe = 2x

The first canoe goes a distance of 2*x * 3.5 = 7x

The second canoe goes a distance of 3.5x

The difference = 7x - 3.5x = 5.25

3.5x = 5.25                                       divide by 3.5

x = 5.25/3.5

x = 1.5 which is the rate of the slower canoe

2x = 3  which is the rate of the faster canoe

Please help!!! I can't figure it out​

A) From the given graph, we can see that the point where graph functions p(x) and f(x) intersect is seen to be;

x = 1, y = 5.0125

B) The possible solutions of the given equation will be; x = 3.11 or -3.11

C) The solution to p(x) = g(x) is; x = 0 and y = 0

<h3>How to find the solution to simultaneous equations graphically?</h3>

When we are trying to solve two simultaneous equations, there are three methods we can use namely;

1) Elimination Method

2) Substitution Method

3) Graphical Method

Now, we see that we are to use the graphical method from the given graph.

Now, the solution to the given pair of equation will be the coordinates of the points where both graphs intersect.

A) From the given graph, we can see that the point where graph functions p(x) and f(x) intersect is seen to be;

x = 1, y = 5.0125

B) The possible solutions of the given equation will be the point where f(x) = 0 which is where the line crosses the x-axis and so we have;

x = 3.11 or -3.11

C) The solution to p(x) = g(x) is the coordinate;

x = 0 and y = 0

Heyyyyyyyyyy kinda need help asap sooooooo plz :)
ss7ja [257]

Answer:

A, B, C, and D, all options are correct.

A is correct because,

∠2 and ∠3 are corresponding angles.

B is correct because,

∠5 and ∠7 are corresponding angles.

C is correct because,

∠2 and ∠4 are corresponding angles.

D is correct because,

∠5 and ∠6 are alternate interior angles.

Note,

If two lines parallel, then

  • Corresponding angles are equal.
  • Alternate interior angles are equal.

Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer:

D) Van: 7, Bus: 20

Step-by-step explanation:

Add the amount of students together (455 students in total)

Then I added the amount of buses and vans together (5 Vans and 21 Buses)

Then I plugged in each answer

5 x 7 = 35

455 - 35 = 420

420 / 21 = 20
