Two towns are 1300 miles apart. A group of hikers starts from each town and walks down the trail toward each other. They meet af

ter a total hiking time of 240 hours. If one group travels 2 1/2 miles per hour slower than the other group, find the rate of each group.

240(v+2.5)=1300-240v

240v+600=1300-240v

480v=1900

v=95/24

v-2.5=v-5/2

95/24-60/24=35/24

So the faster group travels at 95/24 mph (≈3.96 mph) and the slower group travels at 35/24 mph (≈1.46mph)

check...

240(95/24)=950 miles from the origin...

1300-240(35/24)=950 miles from the origin...

Shawndra said that it is not possible to draw a trapezoid that is a rectangle, but it is possible to draw a square that is a rec
ICE Princess25 [194]

Shawndra is correct

 

She made two statements, and both are true:

 

1. It is not possible to draw a trapezoid that is a rectangle.

This is true because a trapezoid<span> is a quadrilateral that has exactly one pair of parallel sides, whereas a rectangle is a parallelogram (i.e. it has two pairs of parallel sides)</span>

 

2. It is possible to draw a square that is a rectangle.

This is true because a rectangle refers to any parallelogram with right angles. A square is also a parallelogram (has two pairs of opposite sides) with right angles. In fact, all squares are rectangles; only that they are a special kind of rectangle, where all the sides are equal in length.

Explain the difference between function and relation and the relationship between the domain and the range of a function.
Kazeer [188]

Given two sets X and Y, a relation between X and Y freely associates elements of X with elements of Y, with no restrictions.

A function is a relation with some restrictions: there must be exactly one element of Y connected with each element of X.

The set X is called the domain of the function, and it represents all the possible inputs that we can feed the function with. As we just said, every element of the domain must have a correlated element in Y.

The set Y is called the range of the function, and it represents all the possible outputs that the function can return.

Graph the solution to this inequality on the number line.
Svetach [21]

Given the inequality expression:

w−0.8>−2.4

Inequalities are expressions separated by an unequal sign.

According to the given question, we need to find the solution for "w"

w−0.8>−2.4

Add 0.8 to both sides

w−0.8+0.8>−2.4 + 0.8

w > -2.4 + 0.8

Simplify the result by adding to have:

w > -1.6

Find the number line representing the solution attached;
