Answer:

The leading coefficient of the polynomial is -9.

Step-by-step explanation:

9 is the leading coefficient of this polynomial because if you rearrange the exponents from greatest to least, you will get this :

-9x3 + 5x2 + 7x -10

Your leading coefficient is the number included with your degree or highest exponent.

Answer:

13 seconds.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$h = -4.9(t - 13)(t + 2).$

Required

Determine a reasonable solution for t

To do this, we equate h to 0.

$h = -4.9(t - 13)(t + 2).$ becomes

$0 = -4.9(t - 13)(t + 2).$

Divide through by -4.9

$0 = (t - 13)(t + 2).$

Reorder the expression

$(t - 13)(t + 2) = 0.$

Split

$t-13 = 0$ or $t + 2 = 0$

This gives:

$t = 13$ or $t = -2$

But time can't be negative, So:

$t = 13$

Sandra normally takes 2 hours to drive from her house to her grandparents' house driving her usual speed. However, on one partic

Rudiy27

Answer:

Her usual driving speed is 38 miles per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that:

$s = \frac{d}{t}$

In which s is the speed, in miles per hour, d is the distance, in miles, and t is the time, in hours.

We have that:

At speed s, she takes two hours to drive. So

$s = \frac{d}{2}$

$d = 2s$

However, on one particular trip, after 40% of the drive, she had to reduce her speed by 30 miles per hour, driving at this slower speed for the rest of the trip. This particular trip took her 228 minutes.

228 minutes is 3.8 hours. So

$0.4s + 0.6(s - 30) = \frac{d}{3.8}$

$3.8(0.4s + 0.6s - 18) = d$

$3.8s - 68.4 = 2s$

$1.8s = 68.4$

$s = 38$

Her usual driving speed is 38 miles per hour.
