X - Linda's speed
(x+8 )- Colleen's speed

8x - Linda's distance for 8 h
8(x+8) = 8x+64  - Colleen's distance for 8 h

8x + 8x + 64 = 176 - distance between Colleen and Linda after 8 h


8x + 8x + 64 = 176 
16x +64 = 176
16x = 176 - 64
16x = 112
x= 7 mph Linda's speed
x+8
= 7+8 = 15 mph Colleen's speed

The ground temperature at an airport is 10 °C. The temperature decreases by 5.4 °C for every increase of 1 kilometer above the g
Paraphin [41]

The temperature outside a plane flying at an altitude of 5 kilometers is -17°C.

Given that,

  • The ground temperature at the airport is 10 °C.
  • The decrease in temperature is 5.4°C for each & every rise in 1 kilometer.

Based on the above information, the temperature outside should be

The decrease in the temperature should be

= 5.4×5

= 27°C

Now the final temperature is

= 10 - 27

= -17°C

Therefore we can conclude that the temperature outside a plane flying at an altitude of 5 kilometers is -17°C.

Write an equation of a parabola that passes through the point (2,4) with vertex (-1,-1) in vertex form.
quester [9]
An applicable equation of a vertical parabola in vertex form is:

y-k = a(x-h)^2

Let x=2, y=4, h=-1 and k=-1, where (h,k) is the vertex.  Then,

4-(-1) = a(2-[-1])^2, which becomes 5 = a(9).  Therefore, a = 5/9, and the 
equation of the parabola is

y+1 = (5/9)(x+1)
