You drive from your home to a vacation resort 420 miles away. You return on the same highway. The average velocity on the return

trip is 15 miles per hour slower than the average velocity on the outgoing trip. Express the total time required to complete the round​ trip, T, as a function of the average velocity on the outgoing​ trip, x.

<h2>Time required to complete the round​ trip T=\frac{420}{x}+\frac{420}{(x-15)} where x is average velocity on the outgoing​ trip.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let average velocity of outgoing trip = x mph

The average velocity on the return trip is 15 miles per hour slower than the average velocity on the outgoing trip.

Average velocity of return trip = (x-15) mph

Distance to vacation place = 420 miles

Distance to vacation place = Time for outgoing trip x average velocity of outgoing trip

          420=t_1\times x\\\\t_1=\frac{420}{x}

Distance to vacation place = Time for return trip x average velocity of return trip

          420=t_2\times (x-15)\\\\t_2=\frac{420}{(x-15)}  

We have total time T = t₁ + t₂

That is

                     T=\frac{420}{x}+\frac{420}{(x-15)}

Time required to complete the round​ trip T=\frac{420}{x}+\frac{420}{(x-15)} where x is average velocity on the outgoing​ trip.

Find the missing denominator or numerator of 1/2 = /4
Jet001 [13]
Simply cross-multiply about,

\bf \cfrac{1}{2}=\cfrac{x}{4}\implies 4\cdot 1=2\cdot x\implies 4=2x\implies \cfrac{4}{2}=x\implies 2=x

Functions f(x) and g(x) are shown below:
kondor19780726 [428]
We look for the minimum of each function.
 For f (x) = 3x2 + 12x + 16:
 We derive the function:
 f '(x) = 6x + 12
 We match zero:
 6x + 12 = 0
 We clear the value of x:
 x = -12/6
 x = -2
 We substitute the value of x in the equation:
 f (-2) = 3 * (- 2) ^ 2 + 12 * (- 2) + 16
 f (-2) = 4
 For g (x) = 2sin(x-pi):
 From the graph we observe that the minimum value of the function is:
 y = -2
 Answer:
 
A function that has the smallest minimum y-value is:
 
y = -2

The first term of a geometric sequence is 32, and the 5th term of the sequence is 818 .
sammy [17]

Answer:

32,24,18,\frac{27}{2} ,\frac{81}{8}

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x, y , and z be the numbers.

Then the geometric sequence is 32,x,y,z,\frac{81}{8}

Recall that  term of a geometric sequence  are generally in the form:

a,ar,ar^2,ar^3,ar^4

This implies that:

a=32 and ar^4=\frac{81}{8}

Substitute a=32 and solve for r.

32r^3=\frac{81}{8}

r^4=\frac{81}{256}

Take the fourth root to get:

r=\sqrt[4]{\frac{81}{256} }

r=\frac{3}{4}

Therefore x=32*\frac{3}{4} =24

y=24*\frac{3}{4} =18

z=18*\frac{3}{4} =\frac{27}{2}
