Since the distances were the same you can find the average speed directly by adding the speeds then dividing by 2. No need to weight anything.

If we’re considering speed regardless of direction, the average speed is:

(24 + 16) / 2 = 40 / 2 = 20mph

However if direction matters, then one number has to be negative since the directions are opposite:

(24 - 16) / 2 = 8 / 2 = 4mph (in the positive direction)

Depending on the context, either of these could be your answer.

Find the range of y = -3x + 7 for the domain {-8, -6, -3, -2, 2}
svetlana [45]
The domain is the set of x-values of a function. The range is the set of y-values of a function.

You are told that the domain, or x-values, are -8, -6, -3, -2, and 2. To find the range, you just need to plug in each of the x-values into the function <span>y = -3x + 7 and find the value of y.
1) When x = -8:
</span><span>y = -3x + 7
y = -3(-8) + 7
y = 24 + 7
y = 31

2) When x = -6
</span>y = -3x + 7
y = -3(-6) + 7
y = 18 + 7
y = 25

3) When x = -3
y = -3x + 7
y = -3(-3) + 7
y = 9 + 7
y = 16

4) When x = -2
y = -3x + 7
y = -3(-2) + 7
y = 6 + 7
y = 13

5) When y = 2
y = -3x + 7
y = -3(2) + 7
y = -6 + 7
y = 1

The range is {31, 25, 16, 13, 1}.

Answer: 
{31, 25, 16, 13, 1}
