Time = distance/speed

The distance between the walkers increases at the rate of (8 mph) -(2 mph) = 6 mph. That distance will be 4.5 mi after ...
  (4.5 mi)/(6 mi/h) = 4.5/6 h = 3/4 h

In 3/4 hour they will be 4.5 miles apart.

Determine which statement is true about the zeros of the function graphed below
crimeas [40]
We see that the points of the graph of the function never attain a y-value of 0. Thus f is never equal to 0 for real numbers, hence we can disqualify all the necessary answers already (only answer not against this is 2). Nevertheless, we can show that this is the right answer. The graph is called a parabola, so it is represents a second order polynomial. These polynomials have either 2 real or 2 complex solutions. Since this does not have real solutions (at the lowest point of that polynomial the y-value is 4) the correct answer is b).

How many ways can 12 swimmers finish in first , second, and third place?
Burka [1]

Answer:

1320

Step-by-step explanation:

This can be solved using something called a permutation. There are 12 possible swimmers that can be in first place. After that, there are 11 swimmers left to be in second place. Finally there are 10 swimmers left for third place. Multiplying these together, you get 12*11*10=1320 ways. Hope this helps!
