Answer:

the speed of the bicyclist heading south 14

the speed of the bicyclist heading north  20

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x is the speed of the bicyclist heading south

Let x+6 is the speed of the bicyclist heading north

Because, they are heading in opposite directions, so the relative speed is:

x + x + 6 = 2x+6

  • Start time: 9:00 until 10:15 is 1 hour and 15 mins = 1\frac{15}{60}= \frac{5}{4}
  • they are 42.5 km apart, that is the distance between them

As we know:

\dfrac{Distance}{time}=Speed

<=> \dfrac{42.5}{\dfrac{5}{4}}=2x+6

<=> 170 = 10x + 30

<=> x = 14 km/hour

=> Speed of bicyclist heading north would be 14+6=20 km/hr

Hope it will find you well.

Write an equation that is parallel to y=-4x+5 and passes through the point (-2,-1)
marta [7]

The equation of line parallel to y=-4x+5 is y = -4x-9

Further explanation:

Given equation of line is:

y = -4x+5

Comparing it with the standard form of equation

y=mx+b\\Then\\m = -4

As the slopes of parallel lines is equal, the slope of the line parallel to given line will be same. Putting the value of slope in standard equation.

y = mx +b\\y = -4x +b

To find the value of b, the given point will be put in the equation

-1 = -4x -2\\-1 = -4(-2) +b\\-1 = 8 +b\\-1 -8 = b\\-9 = b

Putting the values of b and m in standard form

y = -4x -9

So, the equation of line parallel to y=-4x+5 is y = -4x-9

You volunteer to help drive people home from an event. There are 18 people who need rides, but you can only fit 7 of them in you
PilotLPTM [1.2K]
18 choose 7 
=C(18,7)
=18!/(7!(18-7)!)
=31824
OR
18 choices for first passenger,
17 choices for second passenger,
....
12 choices for 7th passenger,
so total = 18*17*16...12
but there are 7! ways to order the 7 passengers, so
number of groups
=18*17*16...12/7!
=31824   as well
