It would be 10 hours but the distance would be 260 mph.

Answer:

780 miles


Step-by-step explanation:

Before the car started its journey, the truck was already 260 miles ahead of the car.

52 miles per hour for 5 hours is 52*5=260 miles


From then onwards, the car travels at 78mph and truck still 52mph. How much faster is the car?

78-52=26 miles per hour

<em><u>This means the car is catching up on the truck at 26 miles every hour! </u></em>


And we know the distance to catch up is 260 miles.

<em>So at 26 miles every hour, how long would it take the car to catch up 260 miles?</em>

\frac{260}{26}=10 hours.


We want to know how far are they from Amsterdam when the catch up happens. So in 10 hours at 78 miles per hour, the car is  78*10=780 miles from Amsterdam <em>(this is when catch up occurs).</em>


So the distance is 780 miles from Amsterdam

Find the vertex for the equation: y=-2x^2+16x-31
Nutka1998 [239]

Answer:

Vertex is (4,1)

Step-by-step explanation:

x=-b/2a so you need to first divide the b (second term) by the a (first term) so you should get 1 as your new a and -8 as your new b. Negative (-8) is just 8 then divide that by 2(1) which is just 2 which equals 4. That is your x. To find your y, you plug your x back into the original equation and then solve it. Hope this helps!
