Answer: 7 days.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of days agent spent in Australia be x.

Then, Number of days he spent in New Zealand = 3x

and number of days he spent in India = x+5

According to the question we have the following eqauation,

x+3x+x+5=40\\\\\Rightarrow\ 5x+5=40\\\\\Rightarrow\ 5x=40-5\\\\\Rightarrow\ 5x=35\\\\\Rightarrow\ x=\dfrac{35}{5}=7

Hence, he spent 7 days in Australia.

An object is launched from the ground. The object’s height, in feet, can be described by the quadratic function h(t) = 80t – 16t
steposvetlana [31]
Would you like me to help walk you through this with you figuring out the work?
Or would you prefer just an answer in math form with me explaining it along the way?

<span>h(t) = 80t – 16t^2
When you are on the ground we have zero height, h(t) = 0. This is saying that at some amount of time we will call t, the object will hit the ground. Now we solve for t to get that time 
so we sub h(t) for 0.
0=80t-16t^2 move the -16t^2 to the other side
 16t^2=80t   divide both sides by t
16t=80   divide both sides by 16
t=5
Now... it is important to realize that there are going to be 2 answers to this equation as you have a t^2. The other answer is 0. Obviously, unless the object started on the ground, the time to hit the ground is not 0 and that answer is ruled out.

What is the value of w?
solniwko [45]
If you have a no solution choice that will be your answer because w+34=w-22 
you would subtract w from both sides to get 34=-22 and that's not true therefore it would be a no solution equation.
