The average speed is the ratio between the distance covered, and the time elapsed to cover that distance.

The total distance is the sum of the three distances covered:

d = 80km+50km+40km = 170km

Similarly, the total time elapsed is

1h + 0.5h + 0.25h = 1.75h

So, althought you didn't always travelled with the same speed, you globally covered 170km in 1.75 hours. This leads to an average speed of

\dfrac{170\text{km}}{1.75\text{h}} \approx 97.14 \dfrac{\text{km}}{\text{h}}

Consider the following set of equations, where s, s0, x and r have units of length, t has units of time, v has units of velocity
Anna11 [10]

Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

For an equation to be dimensionally correct the dimension of quantities on both sides of equation must be same.

Also, two physically quantities can only be added or subtracted only when their dimension are same.

here all option are dimensionally correct except the 5th option where

dimension of t= [T] whereas dimension of a/v is \frac{LT^{-2}}{LT^{-1}}

= T^{-1}

since, the dimension of quantities on either sides of equation are not the same the equation is dimensionally is incorrect.

Ghella [55]

Answer:

8 \sqrt{72}  = 8 \sqrt{3 \times 3 \times 2 \times 2 \times 2}  \\  = 8 \times 3 \times 2  \times \sqrt{2}  = 48 \sqrt{2}

Find the domain and range of the relation and determine whether it is a function.
Sergio [31]
A is the correct answer. A function is defined where every input, x, has only one output. The coordinates are on the graph are (-4,-1), (-1,4), (1,1), and (4,1). As you can see, there is only one output for every input. X is the domain and y is the range.
