Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Both cars, X and Y travelled 80 miles each.

Speed = distance/time

If car X took 2 hours to travel 80 miles, it means that the speed at which car X travelled is

80/2 = 40 mph

If car Y traveled at an average speed that was 50 percent faster than the average speed of car X, it means that the speed at which car X travelled is

40 + 0.5 × 40 = 60 mph

Time = distance/speed

Therefore, time taken by car Y to travel 80 miles is

80/60 = 1.33 hours

Given the piecewise function shown below select all the statements that are true
Rina8888 [55]
The piecewise function tells us specific rules he should execute based on the input x we put in. For example for answer A is true since we use the top function f(x) = -x + 1 since the input is -1 which is less than 0 (x < 0). We check to make sure the equation comes out true:

f(-1) = -(-1) + 1

f(-1) = 2 ✓

What is the angle measure of an arc bounding sector with an area of 5pie square miles?
Snowcat [4.5K]

if the diameter is 20, the its radius must be half that or 10.

\textit{area of a sector of a circle}\\\\ A=\cfrac{\theta \pi r^2}{360}~~ \begin{cases} r=radius\\ \theta =\stackrel{degrees}{angle}\\[-0.5em] \hrulefill\\ A=5\pi \\ r=10 \end{cases}\implies \begin{array}{llll} 5\pi =\cfrac{\theta \pi (10)^2}{360}\implies 5\pi =\cfrac{5\pi \theta }{18} \\\\\\ \cfrac{5\pi }{5\pi }=\cfrac{\theta }{18}\implies 1=\cfrac{\theta }{18}\implies 18=\theta \end{array}
