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

Answer:

260 stickers

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Gareth's stickers be x.

Hence Cheryl sticker is 160+x;

If Cheryl gave 185 stickers

to Gareth, it means:

Cheryl has at the moment;

160 + x - 185 = x - 25

At this time when Gareth receives 185 he now has:

x+ 185

Also when he receives x +185, he has 3 times Cherry's meaning:

x+185 =3(x-25)

x + 185 = 3x -75

185 + 75 = 3x-2x

260= x

x = 260.

Hence Gareth has 260 stickers

Determine the intervals on which the function is increasing, decreasing, and constant
max2010maxim [7]
I believe it's increasing on all fronts, because if you start from the right, you see that the y values always increase, hence they are increasing. They do it for when x<0 and when x>0. So, it should be increasing on all real numbers
