Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Each city is exactly 120 miles from the other two.
Average rate from city A to city B = 60 mi/hr
Average rate from city B to city C = 40 mi/hr
Average rate from city c to city A = 24 mi/hr
We need to find the Dale's average rate for the entire trip.
Solution:
First we find the total time and total distance by following way.
Time taken to travel from A to B =
Time taken to travel from B to C =
Time taken to travel from C to A =
So, total time taken =
Total distance = 120 + 120 + 120 = 360 miles
Using average speed formula.
Therefore, the average rate for the entire trip

If the roots to such a polynomial are 2 and 
, then we can write it as
courtesy of the fundamental theorem of algebra. Now expanding yields
which would be the correct answer, but clearly this option is not listed. Which is silly, because none of the offered solutions are *the* polynomial of lowest degree and leading coefficient 1.
So this makes me think you're expected to increase the multiplicity of one of the given roots, or you're expected to pull another root out of thin air. Judging by the choices, I think it's the latter, and that you're somehow supposed to know to use
as a root. In this case, that would make our polynomial
so that the answer is (probably) the third choice.

Answer:
1) Photographer B (4%)
2) Photographer D (27%)
3) Photographer C (29%)
4) Photographer A (40%)

<u><em>The correct question is</em></u>
Four photographers are taking pictures at a school dance. Photographer A takes 2/5 of the pictures, Photographer B takes 4% , Photographer C takes 0.29 , and Photographer D takes 27/100 . Which choice lists the photographers in order from least to greatest by the amount of pictures they take?
we know that
1) Photographer A takes 2/5 of the pictures
That means
the amount of pictures take by photographer A in percent form is equal to multiply the fraction by 100
---> percentage form
2) Photographer B takes 4%
3) Photographer C takes 0.29
That means
the amount of pictures take by photographer C in percent form is equal to multiply the decimal number by 100
---> percentage form
4) Photographer D takes 27/100
That means
the amount of pictures take by photographer D in percent form is equal to multiply the fraction by 100
---> percentage form
Lists the photographers in order from least to greatest by the amount of pictures they take
1) Photographer B (4%)
2) Photographer D (27%)
3) Photographer C (29%)
4) Photographer A (40%)
