<em><u>Slower car</u></em>

r = r

t = 12 hours

d = ?

<em><u>Faster car</u></em>

r = r + 20

t = 8 hours

d = ?

It doesn't matter what the exact distance is. You just have to know that the 2 distances are equal ie going to the mountains from his home is the same distance as going from the mountains to his home.

d = r * t

r * 12 hours = (r + 20)* 8 hours.   Remove the brackets on the right

r*12 = 8r + 20*8

r*12 = 8*r + 160

r*12 - 8r = 8r - 8r + 160

4r = 160

r = 40 miles / hour

=================

Slower Ride determines the distance.

d = r*t

d = 40 * 12

d = 480

Check

Use the faster rate (r + 20) = 40 + 20 = 60 mph

60 * 8 = 480. Both distances work out to be the same.

What is y=1/2x+4 in standard form?
zhuklara [117]
<h3>Answer:  x-2y = -8</h3>

===========================================

Explanation:

Multiply both sides by 2 to clear out the fraction

y = (1/2)x+4

2y = 2[ (1/2)x + 4 ]

2y = 2*(1/2)x + 2*4

2y = x + 8

Then move the x term over to the left side

2y = x+8

2y-x = 8

-x+2y = 8

Optionally we can multiply both sides by -1

-x+2y = 8

-1*(-x+2y) = -1*8

x-2y = -8

This is in standard form Ax+By = C with A = 1, B = -2, C = -8

The reason why I multiplied both sides by -1 was to make A > 0 which is what some textbooks use as convention. Of course -x+2y = 8 is equally valid too.

Solve 5 tan x = 5√(3) for 0° ≤ x ≤ 180°.<br><br> a. 60°<br> b. 150°<br> c. 30°<br> d. 120°
ladessa [460]

Answer:

\boxed{a.\:\:\:60\degree}

Step-by-step explanation:


The given trigonometric equation is


5\tan(x)=5\sqrt{3} for 0\degree \le x\le 180\degree.


We divide through by 5 to get;


\tan(x)=\sqrt{3}


We take the inverse tangent of both sides to obtain;


x=tan^{-1}(\sqrt{3})


x=60\degree


Since the tangent ratio is positive, it means x could also be in the 3rd quadrant. But this is outside the given range.


Therefore the correct answer is A
