Let x be the distance from Syracuse where they pass. The first car travels a distance of x in time x/65 while the second car travels a distance 240-x in time (240-x)/55. They pass at the same time after leaving their starting points so x/65=(240-x)/55.
Cross-multiplying we get: 55x=65(240-x)=15600-65x, 120x=15600, x=15600/120=130 miles.
They pass 130 miles from Syracuse.
Answer:
C. 8
Step-by-step explanation:
The average rate of change is the slope of the line between the two points of interest. It is given by the formula ...
m = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)
For points (1, 2) and (3, 18), the average rate of change is ...
m = (18 -2)/(3 -1) = 16/2 = 8
The average rate of change between x=1 and x=3 is 8.
Answer:
f(-4) = 72, f(x + 5) = 3x² + 23x + 36
Step-by-step explanation:
f(-4) = 3(-4)² - 7(-4) - 4
= 48 - (-28) - 4
f(-4) = 72
f(x + 5) = 3(x + 5)² - 7(x + 5) - 4
= 3(x + 5)(x + 5) - 7(x + 5) - 4
= 3(x² + 10x + 25) - 7(x + 5) - 4
= 3x² + 30x + 75 - 7x - 35 - 4
f(x + 5) = 3x² + 23x + 36
