Answer: Chuck's travel at a rate of 52mph

Step-by-step explanation:

For Chuck's trip:

D=RT

104= (R+4)T

T= 104 / (R+4)

For Dana's trip:

96 = RT

T= 96/R

Set both equation for Chuck's and Dana together

104/(R+4) =96/R

Then we cross multiply

96(R+4) = 104R

96R + 384 = 104R

104R - 96R = 384

8R = 384

To get R, divide both side by 8

8R/8 = 384/8

R= 48mph

This means Dana's speed is 48mph

Chuck's speed will be: 48mph+4mph = 52mph

shutvik [7]

3x-2=26\qquad\text{add 2 to both sides}\\\\3x=28\qquad\text{divide both sides by 3}\\\\\boxed{x=\dfrac{28}{3}}\\\\\text{Put the value of x to the second equation}\ 5x=7y+58\\\\5\left(\dfrac{28}{3}\right)=7y+58\qquad\text{multiply both sides by 3}\\\\(5)(28)=21y+174\\\\140=21y+174\qquad\text{subtract 174 from both sides}\\\\-34=21y\qquad\text{divide both sides by 21}\\\\\boxed{y=-\dfrac{34}{21}}\\\\Answer:\ \boxed{\left(\dfrac{28}{3},\ -\dfrac{34}{21}\right)}

Walt is mixing fruit punch for a party. He combines 1 gallon 2 quarts 3 pints of orange juice, 1 gallon 3 quarts 7 pints of pine
mafiozo [28]
1 gal + 2 qt + 3 pts
1 gal + 3 qt + 7 pts
1 gal + 3 qt + 3 pts
----------------------------add
3 gal + 8 qt + 13 pts

1 gal = 4 qts
1 gal = 8 pts
1 pt = 1/2 qt

13 pts =  6.5 qts
now we have 3 gal + (8 + 6.5) = 3 gal + 14.5 qts
12 qts = 3 gal
now we have : 6 gal + 2.5 qts or 6 gal + 2 qts + 1 pt <=== answer

In a triangle the length of two sides are 1.9m and 0.7m. What is the length of the third side, if you know that it should be a w
monitta

Answer:

their sum: 2.8m

their difference: 1.2m

the third side's length should be smaller than their sum, larger than their difference

it could be: 1.3-1.4-1.5-1.6-1.7-1.8-1.9-2-2.1-2.2-2.3-2.4-2.5-2.6-2.7 but since it has to be a whole number, 2m is the only eligible answer.

Make a conjecture of what the x-intercepts of the function<br> f(x) = (2x - 1)(x + 3) will be.
drek231 [11]

Answer:

x=-3,x1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x)=(2x-1)(x+3)

TI find x intercept/zero substitute

f(x)=0

0=(2x-1)x(x+3)

swap the sides of the equation

(2x-1)x(x+3)=0

when the product of factors equals 0,at least one factor is zero

2x-1=0

x+3=0

solve the equation for x

x=1/2

x+3=0

solve the equation of x

x=-3

The equation has two solution

x=-3

x=1/2
