Mathematics

Answer:

53.33 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Speed is the rate of change of distance with time. Mathematically,

speed = distance/time

and is measured in miles per hour or meter per second.

To get the average speed over the entire trip, we must get the total time  spent on trip and the total distance, then apply the speed formula

Time for the first 300 miles

= 300/60

= 5 hours

Time spent on the last 100

= 100/40

= 2.5 hours

Total time of the trip = 5 + 2.5

= 7.5 hours

Total distance covered

= 300 miles + 100 miles

= 400 miles

Average speed on the trip

= 400/7.5

= 53.33 miles per hour

The height of a triangle is 3cm less than twice the base. The area is 10cm2
Kamila [148]

Answer:

The base is 4cm and the height is 5cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a solve the system question. Call H the height of the triangle and B the base. The question tells us:

H=2B-3

and

\frac{B \times H}{2}=10

Sub the first equation into the second (as H is already isolated). You will end up with a quadratic equation - solve that any way you wish (e.g. quadratic formula). I've provided the factored form below which shows you the roots:

\frac{B(2B-3)}{2}=10\\\frac{2B^2-3B}{2}=10\\2B^2-3B=20\\2B^2-3B-20=0\\(2B+5)(B-4)=0\\B= - \frac{5}{2},4

In this question, we take B=4. You can't have a negative side length so the other answer is eliminated. Now sub the value for B into either of the original equations. I'll use the first, again because H is already isolated:

H=2(4)-3\\H=8-3\\H=5

Solve the formula for the area of a triangle A = (1/2) bh for height h
Hitman42 [59]
A = (1/2) bh for height h

2A = bh

first multiply both sides by 2 then divide both sides by b

Area of triangle = (1/2)bh

A = (1/2)bh

2A = bh

h = 2A/b

110 = 1/2(11)h

110 = 5.5h

110/5.5 = 20

The answer Is H = 20

Hope this helps (:

If h(x) is the inverse of f(x). what is the value of h(f(x))?
attashe74 [19]

Option C is correct

The value of h(f(x)) is, x

Inverse function:

An inverse function that undergoes the other function.

For example: if f(x) is the inverse of g(x) then;

for every x.

As per the statement:

If h(x) is the inverse of f(x).

by definition of inverse:

Therefore,  the value of h(f(x)) is, x
