Answer:

32 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to find the patrolman's rate in miles per hour during the shift. Since we want to find miles per hour, we must divide the miles he drove by the number of hours.

rate = miles / hours

He drove 272 miles.

rate = 272 miles / hours

He drove for 8 hours and 30 minutes. There are 60 minutes in 1 hour. One half of 60 is 30. Therefore, we can also say he drove eight and a half, or 8.5 hours.

rate= 272 miles / 8.5 hours

rate = 32 miles / hour

rate= 32 mph

His average rate during the shift was 32 miles per hour.

Let f(x)=6/5x−1/2. Describe the transformations from the graph of f to the graphs of g(x)=−f(x) and h(x)=f(−x).
aivan3 [116]

Answer:

g(x)=-6/5x+1/2

h(x)=-6/5x-1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

1).   g(x)=−f(x) ?

f(x)=6/5x−1/2

g(x)=−(6/5x−1/2)

<u>g(x)=-6/5x+1/2</u>

2). h(x)=f(−x) ?

f(-x)=6/5(-x)−1/2

f(-x)=-6/5x-1/2

h(x)=-6/5x-1/2

Math homework help please thanks!
trapecia [35]

Answer:

x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

I already answer this on another question you actually made, but here it is again:

To do this, you need to use the Thales theorem.

You can actually apply this theorem and choose two sides of the figure to do it.In this case, I will choose segment LM and MN and look for a ratio with DE and EF like this:

LM/MN = DE/EF

This theorem states that you can stablish a ratio between two segments assuming that you have at least two paralels lines, like DL || EM || FN

Therefore, it's time to replace the values of those segments and solve for X:

LM/MN = DE/EF

14/16 = 6x -9 / 4x + 4

7/8 = 6x - 9 / 4x + 4

7(4x+4) = 8(6x-9)

28x + 28 = 48x - 72

72 + 28 = 48x - 28x

100 = 20x

x = 100/20

x = 5

Determine the payment to amortize the debt. (Round your answer to the nearest cent.) Quarterly payments on $19,500 at 3.9% for 6
Olin [163]

Answer:

$925.20

Step-by-step explanation:

Loan Amount, P = $19,500

Rate of interest, r = 3.9%

Time, t = 6 years

Payment mode, n = Quarterly (4)

payment to amortize, EMI = ?

Formula: EMI=\dfrac{P\cdot \frac{r}{n}}{1-(1+\frac{r}{n})^{-n\cdot t}}

where,

n = 4 , Rate of interest , r = 0.039

Put the values into formula

EMI=\dfrac{19500\cdot \frac{0.039}{4}}{1-(1+\frac{0.039}{4})^{-4\cdot 6}}

EMI=915.20

Hence, The payment to amortize the debt is $915.20
