Answer: 72 miles.
Step-by-step explanation:
We know the relationship:
Distance = speed*time.
Then we can write the equation for distance as a function of time for Ali as:
A(t) = 12mph*t
where t is time in hours.
Fatimah's equation will be:
F(t) = 18mph*(t - 2h)
where the -2h appears because she starts two hours after Ali.
Fatimah will overtake Ali when F(t) = A(t) (their positions are the same)
Then we need to solve:
12mph*t = 18mph*(t - 2h)
12mph*t = 18mph*t - 18mph*2h
12mph*t = 18mph*t - 36 mi
36 mi = (18mph - 12mph)*t
36mi = 6mph*t
36mi/6mph = t
6h = t
So Ali travels for 6 hours before he gets overtaken, then the total distance that Ali travels is:
A(6h) = 12mph*6h = 72 mi
Answer:
32
Step-by-step explanation:
lets substitute the appropriate values in the equation:
5h+3 - j h= 6 j=1 , so we have:
5*6 +3 -1
30 +3 -1

Answer:
BM: <u>y = (2/3) x + 16/3</u> with segment length of 2.77
Step-by-step explanation:
AC formula: m = (6-0)/(0-4) = -3/2
(y-0)/(x-4) = -3/2 y = (-3/2)x + 6 ... (1)
BM slope: BM⊥ AC m = 2/3
BM formula: (y-4) / (x- -2) = (y-4) / (x+2) = 2/3
y-4 = 2/3 x + 4/3
<u>y = (2/3) x + 16/3</u> ... (2) -2≤x≤0.31
intercept of AC and BM (M) from (1) and (2): (-3/2)x + 6 = (2/3) x + 16/3
(13/6) x = 2/3 x = (2/3) / (13/6) = 4/13 ≈ 0.31
y = (2/3) (4/13) + (16/3) = (8/39) + (208/39) = 216/39 = 72/13 ≈ 5.54
M (4/13 , 72/13) or (0.31 , 5.54)
segment BM = √(4/13 - -2)² + (72/13 - 4)² = √1300/169 = 2.77
IGH because the angles line up
Since there is two negative signs in the original equation, you need two negative signs in the equivalent one as well.
Because one of the negatives if before the fraction, it doesn't matter if the second negative is on the 13 or on the 12.
The answer is A.
