Distance to the farm is 24 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Step 1: Let the speed of Peggy be x mph. Then the speed of Mike is x + 36 mph. Find the equation of distance for Mike and Peggy to the farm.

Time taken by Mike = 0.5 hr

Time taken by Peggy = 2 hrs

Distance is calculated by the equation Distance = Speed × Time

Distance traveled by Mike = (x + 36) × 0.5

Distance traveled by Peggy = x × 2

  • Step 2: Equate the 2 distances of Mike and Peggy as they are the same and find x.

(x + 36) × 0.5 = 2x

0.5x + 18 = 2x

1.5 x = 18

⇒ x = 18/1.5 = 12 mph

  • Step 3: Find the distance to the farm.

Distance to the farm = 2x = 24 miles

In Lesson 3.05 we discussed comparing the key features of two functions given in different forms. Given the functions below:
vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

a) Compare the y-intercepts of f(x) and g(x). Use complete sentences.

The  functions f(x) and g(x) are different, the y-intercepts  for each function is y-intercepts (0,-1/3) for f(x)= 1/x-3 and y-intercepts  (0,0) for g(x) as shown on the graph.



b) Compare the vertical asymptotes of f(x) and g(x). Use complete sentences.

The  functions f(x) and g(x) have different Vertical Asymptotes, f(x)= 1/x-3 Vertical Asymptotes is x = 3 while g(x) as shown on the graph Vertical Asymptotes is   x = 4. Both functions do have Horizontal Asymptotes that are the same y = 0

Find the half life of a substance which decays according to the function A(t)=600e^-0.05t, where t is time in days. Round to the
Pavel [41]

Answer:

14 days

Step-by-step explanation:

The half life of a substance is the time required until the object has only half of the inicial mass.

So, to find the inicial mass of the object, we use t = 0 in the equation A(t):

A(0) = 600*e^0 = 600

Half of this mass is 300, so we can use A(t) = 300 and then find the time:

300 = 600e^-0.05t

e^-0.05t = 0.5

ln(e^-0.05t) = ln(0.5)

-0.05t = -0.6931

t = 13.862 days

Rounding to nearest day, we have that t = 14 days
