If it was 60 miles round trip, each way was therefore 30 miles.
Let x represent the hours taken on the dry road.  Slippery road was then 2x.  2x + x = 3x.  35 / 3 = 11.66… = x.
So, on the dry road, the car took 11.66…  hours.
For the slippery one, 2 * 11.66… or 23.33…  hours.
Convert to mph, shall we?
Dry road:
30 miles / 11.66… hours = 2.57… mph.
Slippery road:
30 miles / 23.33… hours = 1.28… mph.
If that’s what you’re looking for — you never quite asked.

Simplify: –3(x – 5) – 8(y + 2) + (–3)(6 – 4b)
Paha777 [63]
-3 (x - 5) - 8 (y + 2) + (-3) (6 - 4b)

First, simplify your brackets. / Your problem should look like: -3 (x - 5) - 8 (y + 2) + -3 (6 - 4b)
Second, simplify. / Your problem should look like: -3 (x - 5) - 8 (y + 2) - 3 (b - 4b)
Third, expand your problem. / Your problem should look like: -3x + 15 - 8y - 16 - 18 + 12b
Fourth, simplify. / Your problem should look like: -3x - 8y + 12b - 19

Answer: -3x - 8y + 12b - 19 (D)

Nina knows that the average of the x-intercepts represents the line of symmetry for a quadratic function through the x-axis. Whi
Dafna1 [17]
To get the x-intercepts of the function, f(x) = 4x2 – 24x + 20

It has to be equated to zero and the values of x are the x-intercepts. So,
4x2 – 24x + 20 = 0
The resulting equation is a quadratic equation which can be solved by different methods. The solution is
x = 5, 1
The average therefore is:
(1+5/)2 = 3

The diagram shows 5 ft student standing near a tree. The shadow of the student and the shadow of the tree
mariarad [96]

Answer:

x = 25 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

here we see the student standing and creating a small triangle that is equivalent to the big triangle since it has the same angles, the only difference is that its smaller, so what we have to do is make a proportion of both triangles, so since 8 ft correspond with the 40 ft they're going to be in the same part of the proportion and the other measurements, including x, on the other part, so itll be 5/8 and x/40, see how the 8 and 40 are both on the bottom? thats because they correspond, so now all you have to do is cross butterfly, so you can set up an expression on 8x= 5*40 or you can just multiply 5*40 and then divide by 8, your answer will be x= 25 ft

The axis of the sphere below is 16 units in length. What is the surface area of the sphere?.
Nataly_w [17]
There are enough information's already given in the question. Based on those information's that answer can be easily deduced.
Radius of the sphere = 8 units
Then
Surface area of the sphere = 4 *pi * r^2
                                            = 4 * pi * (8)^2
                                            = 4 * pi * 64
                                            = 256pi
I hope that this answer has come to your help.
