Answer:

8 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Sheyna drives to the lake with average speed of 60 mph and

v_1 = 60\ mph

Sheyna drives back from the lake with average speed of 36 mph

v_2 = 36\ mph

It took 2 hours less time to get there than it did to get back.

Let t_1 be the time taken to drive to lake.

Let t_2 be the time taken to drive back from lake.

t_2-t_1 = 2 hrs ..... (1)

To find:

Total time taken = ?

t_1+t_2 = ?

Solution:

Let D be the distance to lake.

Formula for time is given as:

Time =\dfrac{Distance}{Speed }

t_1 = \dfrac{D}{60}\ hrs

t_2 = \dfrac{D}{36}\ hrs

Putting in equation (1):

\dfrac{D}{36}-\dfrac{D}{60} = 2\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{5D-3D}{180} = 2\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{2D}{180} = 2\\\Rightarrow D = 180\ miles

So,

t_1 = \dfrac{180}{60}\ hrs = 3 \ hrs

t_2 = \dfrac{180}{36}\ hrs = 5\ hrs

So, the answer is:

t_1+t_2 = \bold{8\ hrs}

Which of the following equations represents the line that is graphed on the coordinate grid below
vladimir2022 [97]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

the factor of x in the equation is the slope, which is the ratio y/x indicating how many units y changes, when x changes a certain amount of units.

going from the left point to the right point x changes by +3 units, and y changes by -1 unit.

so, the slope (and factor of x in the equation) is -1/3.

and the constant term in the equation is the y (axis) intercept of the line.

this is the y value, when x = 0 (intercepting the y axis).

and we see in the graph, when x = 0, the line goes through y = 2.

so, the equation has to be

y = -1/3 × x + 2

therefore, C is the right answer.

Solve each pair of simultaneous equations by substitution method
WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

x = 1       y = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

- Plug the value of y into the other equation.

x + 3y = -11

x + 3(-4x) = -11

x - 12x = -11

-11x = -11

x = 1

- Now substitute the value of x into any equation.

y = -4x

y = -4(1)

y = -4
