Answer:

y = 60x + 22

262 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the car enters the turnpike at 22 miles, his initial starting point, or initial value (b) is 22.  You also know the rate at which the car travels is 60 miles per hour, which is the slope (m).  Using the slope-intercept formula of a linear function: y = mx + b, you can plug in your initial value and rate:

y = 60x + 22, where y = the total miles and x = the number of hours traveled

After 4 hours:

y = 60(4) + 22 = 240 + 22 = 262 miles

In converting 540 inches into yards what unit would you place in the numerator of your ratio?
Lesechka [4]

Answer:

The change division should put the unit to be dispensed with as an afterthought inverse of where it happens in the first inquiry.

540 inches * (1 yard/36 inches)

The inches best and base drop, abandoning you with the outcome in yards.

A circle is shown. Secants S V and T V intersect at point V outside of the circle. Secant S V intersects the circle at point W.
Marat540 [252]

<u>Given</u>:

Secants S V and T V intersect at point V outside of the circle. Secant S V intersects the circle at point W. Secant T V intersects the circle at point U.

The length of TU is (y - 2).

The length of UV is 8.

The length of SW is (y + 4)

The length of WV is 6.

We need to determine the length of line segment SV.

<u>Value of y:</u>

The value of y can be determined using the intersecting secant theorem.

Applying, the theorem, we get;

WV \times SV=UV \times TV

Substituting the values, we have;

6 \times (y+4+6)=8 \times (y-2+8)

   6 \times (y+10)=8 \times (y+6)

          6y+60=8y+48

        -2y+60=48

               -2y=-12

                   y=6

Thus, the value of y is 6.

<u>Length of SV:</u>

The length of SV is given by

SV=SW+WV

SV=y+4+6

SV=6+4+6

SV=16

Thus, the length of SV is 16 units.

Hence, Option D is the correct answer.
