x+y = 4

x=4-y

52x+50y=204

52(4-y)+50y=204

208-52y+50y=204

208-2y=204

-2y=-4

y=2

x= 4-2=2

check 52*2=104

50*2 = 100

104+100=204

so he traveled 2 hours at both 50 and 52 mph

Answer:

$t= 6\ s$

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the equation that models the height of the ball as a function of time is $h(t) = -16t ^ 2 + 80t + 96$ .

Where the initial speed is 80 feet.

When the ball lands on the ground, its height will be $h(t) = 0$ .

So to know how long it will take the ball to reach the ground, equal h (t) to zero and solve for t.

$-16t ^ 2 + 80t + 96 = 0$

To solve this quadratic equation we use the quadratic formula.

For an equation of the form:

$at^2 +bt +c$

The quadratic formula is:

$t=\frac{-b\±\sqrt{b^2 -4ac}}{2a}$

In this case

$a =-16\\b = 80\\c =96$

Then

$t=\frac{-80\±\sqrt{80^2 -4(-16)(96)}}{2(-16)}$

$t_1=-1\\\\t_2=6$

We take the positive solution

$t= 6\ s$

What is the fraction decimal for 1/8 show answer figured out

ArbitrLikvidat [17]

You can cross-multiply to convert fractions into percentages.

1 x
— = —
8 100

(100)1 = x(8)

100 = 8x

Isolate x by dividing both sides of the equation by 8.

100 8x
— = —
(8) (8)

100
— = x
8

Simplify.

12.5 = x

So one out of eight equals 12.5 out of a hundred, or

12.5 %

Here is another question that i need help on 600= 6 hundreds+ how many tens+ 0 ones

mariarad [96]

<span>Since you gave two different equations I will solve both.

(1) 600 = 6 hundreds+ how many tens+ 0 ones
600 = 600 +<u> 0 </u>+ 0
</span><span>_____________________________________________________________
(2) 600 = how many tens + 0 ones
600 =<u> 60 </u>tens + 0 ones
600 = (60 x 10) + 0
600 = 600 + 0

</span>Answers:
<span><u>(1) 600 = 600 +</u><em> 0 </em><u>+ 0 ones</u>
<u>(2) 600 =</u><em> 60 </em><u>+ 0 ones </u></span>
