Answer:
-39 2/3
Step-by-step explanation:
t - 122= 2t - 3
subtract 't' from each side to get:
-122 = 3t - 3
add 3 to each side to get:
-119 = 3t
divide each side by 3 to get:
t = -39 2/3
Answer:
x = 30
Step-by-step explanation:
One hundred twenty thousand
Answer:
160 meters
Step-by-step explanation:
Let call dj distance run by Jess and dw distance run by Wes
By Jess courtesy Wes will be 60 meters ahead of Jess
Let call t the time in which both runners are at the same point, which in fact is when both distances are equal
dj = 8 m/sec * t and dw = 60 + 5 m/sec * t
Then we make dj = dw
8*t = 60 + 5*t
3*t = 60
t = 20 sec
Now passed 20 sec dj = 8 * 20 = 160 m
and dw = 60 + 5*20 dw = 160 m
Answer:
Bryan walks faster
Bryan was farther away from home when he started walking.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the following :
Brendon's distance in feet from home 'y' in relation to the number of minutes walked 'x'
y = 7,920 − 270x
For bryan:
Minutes (x) - - - 0 - - - - - 15
Feet ( y) - - 8000 - - - 3800
General form of a linear equation :
y = mx + C
m = gradient / slope
m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
m = (3800 - 8000) / (15 - 0)
m = -4200 / 15 = - 280
Intercept 'c' = 8000 (where line intersect the y axis), (since y = 8000, when x = 0)
Therefore,
Bryan's model:
y = 8000 - 280x
Comparing both functions :
Bryan has a greater speed ( from the gradient)
Bryan was farther away from home when he started walking ( intercept )
