We are trying to find the average speed of the plane, which is mph, or 
. Using proportions, we can find the average speed of the plane in mph:
- Use the information from the problem to create a proportion. Remember that we are looking for mph, so we will call that
.
- Multiply the entire equation by
- Divide both sides of the equation by
to clear both sides of the mile unit
The average speed of the plane is 300 mph.
That would be = -p^2+4p+4
Answer:
The 2nd Graph is a function.
Step-by-step explanation:
You can tell it's a function because if you flatten the individual line segments along the x-axes, they all connect to form one long line.
HOWEVER, if some of the dots at the end of each line segment were empty circles instead, then it would not be considered a function. You can think of these as holes, not allowing the line to connect in those or that area.
Did that help? ;-;
Answer:
The answer is below
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the cost of 1 scoop of ice cream. Since the cost of 2 scoops of ice cream are twice the price of 1 scoop of ice cream, therefore the cost of 2 scoops of ice cream = 2x
Jean buys 4 tubs with 2 scoops in them and 2 tubs with 1 scoop each. Therefore the money spent by Jean is:
Money spent by Jean = 4(2x) + 2(x) = 8x + 2x = 10x
Sarah buys 2 tubs of 2 scoops and 4 tubs of 1 scoop. The money spent by Sarah is:
Money spent by Sarah = 2(2x) + 4(x) = 4x + 4x = 8x
Sarah spends 2.50 € less than Jean. Therefore:
Money spent by Sarah = Money spent by Jean - 2.5
8x = 10x - 2.5
2x = 2.5
x = €1.25
Therefore the cost of 1 scoop of ice cream is €1.25, the cost of 2 scoops of ice cream is €2.50.
Money spent by Jean = 10x = 10(1.25) = €12.5
Money spent by Sarah = 8x = 8(1.25) = €10
