Answer:

Distance from home to store = 4 * 0.5 = 2 miles.

Time taken to return home = (2/12) * 60 =10 minutes.

Total distance traveled = 2 * 2 = 4 miles.

Total time taken = 30 + 10 = 40 minutes.

Average speed for entire trip = total distance / total time in hours.

Distance from home to store = 4 * 0.5 = 2 miles.
Time taken to return home = (2/12) * 60 =10 minutes.
Total distance traveled = 2 * 2 = 4 miles.
Total time taken = 30 + 10 = 40 minutes.
Average speed for entire trip = total distance / total time in hours.
$Average\ speed=\frac{4}{\frac{40}{60}}=\frac{4\times60}{60}=6\ mph$

What is the x in 2/3×-10=-12 answer to 2/3×-10=-12

satela [25.4K]

X= -3

2/3x-10=12

Step 1: Add 10 to both sides.

2/3x=-2

Step 2: Multiply both sides by 3/2.

x= -3

Solve 4e^2x-3=12 please help

Anestetic [448]

$4*e^{2x} -3 = 12$

Step 1:

Here we have -3 in subtraction on the left side, so when we take it to the right we apply opposite operation of subtraction that is addition.

$4*e^{2x} = 12+3$

$4*e^{2x} = 15$

Step 2:

Next we have 4 in multiplication on left side, so dividing right side by 4,

$e^{2x} = 15/4$

$e^{2x} = 3.75$

Step 3:

taking log on both sides

$ln ( e^{2x}) = ln(3.75)$

${2x} =ln 3.75$

Step 4:

Dividing right side by 2,

x= ln (3.75) /2 = 0.66088

Answer : x = 0.66088..

In January. The temperature in Fargo, North Dakota is -2 F. On the same day, the temperature in Cheyenne, Wyoming was 1 F. Write

zaharov [31]

Answer:

(a) $1 > -2$ or $-2 < 1$

(b) $2 > 1$ or $1 < 2$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$N = -2F$ --- North Dakota

$C = 1F$ --- Cheyenne, Wyoming

Solving (a): Inequality to compare both temperatures

From the given temperatures, we can conclude that:

$C > N$ or $N < C$

Because

$1 > -2$ i.e. 1 is greater than -2

or

$-2 < 1$ i.e. -2 is less than 1

Solving (b): Inequality to compare the absolute values of the temperatures

We have:

$N = -2F$

$C = 1F$

The absolute values are:

$|N| = |-2|$

$|N| =2$

$|C| = |1|$

$|C| = 1$

By comparison:

$|N| > |C|$ or $|C| < |N|$

Because

$2 > 1$ i.e. 2 is greater than 1

or

$1 < 2$ i.e. 1 is less than 2
