Answer:

Bicycle: 30 miles/hour

Scooter: 40 miles/hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the speed of the bicycle be s,

Then the speed of the scooter is:

s + 10

Distance = speed × time

Distances covered:

Bicycle: (s)(5½) = 5.5s

Scooter: (s + 10)(3) = 3s + 30

Total:

5.5s + 3s + 30

8.5s + 30

8.5s + 30《285

8.5s《255

s《30

s + 10《40

Which is the graph of the function f(x) = -√x?
Virty [35]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The last (fourth) graph is that of the parent function y = √x.  The negative sign in front of √x leads to reflection of this parent function graph in the x-axis.  Thus, the correct graph of f(x) = -√x is the first one.

One of the five cards is chosen at random. Find the probability of choosing a card with a number that
svetoff [14.1K]

Answer:

<h2>Zero.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Well, assuming that the cards are numbered 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5, then the probability of getting 6 is zero, because there's no card with such number.

Remember that a simple probability is a ratio between the possible events and the total number of outcomes. In this case, the total number of outcomes is 5 and the events are zero, because there's no card with 6.
