Answer:  The total distance for which the bike was tested is (x^2+5x)~\textup{miles}.

Step-by-step explanation:  Given that a sports company conducted a road test of a new model of a geared bike.

The test rider cycled (3x-2) miles on a flat road, (x^2-5) miles uphill and (2x+7) miles downhill.

We are to find the simplified expression that is equivalent to the total distance, in miles, for which the bike was tested.

The total distance for which the bike was tested is given by

D\\\\=(3x-2)+(x^2-5)+(2x+7)\\\\=3x-2+x^2-5+2x+7\\\\=x^2+5x.

Thus, the total distance for which the bike was tested is (x^2+5x)~\textup{miles}.

It would start like this:
(3x-2) + (2x - 5) + (2x+7)
= 7x
Sorry if it's wrong...

1. Over a period of 6 years (from 1980 to 1986) the house gained a value of 12000 dollars (109k-97k). 12000/6 gives you a rate of 2000 dollars per year. Because the initial price at t=0 is 97000, the function is 97000+2000t

The temperature in Quebec City was 5°C at 4 pm. By midnight, the temperature dropped 15 degrees.
TEA [102]

Answer:

Point A.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the temperature dropped 15 degrees, and that it was initially of 5°C. So, by midnight, the temperature will be of -10°C (5-15=-10).

We also know that the distance between points is of 5°C. So, the point that we have to mark is point A, which represents -10°C.

What is the x intercept of -6x-3y=18?
damaskus [11]
<span>-6x-3y=18
Substitute 0 for y
-6x-3(0)=18
Multply -3 by 0
-6x=18
Divide both sides by -6 so that the only thing on the left side is the variable x.
Final Answer: x= -3</span>

Answer:

P = 9 is the max value

Step-by-step explanation:

Sketch

2x + 4y = 10

with x- intercept = (5, 0) and y- intercept (0, 2.5)

x + 9y = 12

with x- intercept = (12, 0) and y- intercept = (0, \frac{4}{3} )

Solve

2x + 4y = 10 and x + 9y = 12 to find the point of intersection at (3, 1)

The region corresponding to the solution of the system of constraints

Has vertices at (0, \frac{4}{3}), (0, 0) , (5, 0) and (3, 1)

Now evaluate the objective function at each vertex.

(0, 0) can be excluded as it will not give a maximum

(5, 0) → P = 5 + 0 = 5

(0, \frac{4}{3}) → 0 + 8 = 8

(3, 1) → 3 + 6(1) = 3 + 6 = 9 ← maximum value

Thus the maximum value is 9 when x = 3 and y = 1
