You travel 80 km in the first 1.00 hour of a trip, 50 km in the next 0.50 hours, and 40 km in the final 0.25 hours. Calculate yo

ur average speed for the entire trip?

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}}

(Adding and Subtracting Polynomials)
andrey2020 [161]

Adding and subtracting big polynomials like these are pretty easy. You just need to combine like terms. For example:

1.)

{5x}^{2}  +  {3x}^{2}  =  {8x}^{2}

2.)

({3x}^{2}  + 5xy) + (7xy + 2) =

{3x}^{2} + 12xy + 2

(The 3x^2 and the 2 stay intact while the 5xy and 7xy combine together)

All you have to do is combine the numbers that have the same powers of x and y with each other. x^2 will combine with x^2 and xy^2 wil combine with xy^2 exc. If there is no other number with the same x and y's, then you just leave it as it is in the answer.

Now with the original question, I see a -9xy^3, and thats gonna combine with the 3xy^3 in the second polynomial and the 2xy^3 in the third one.

- 9x {y}^{3}  + 3x {y}^{3}  + 2x {y}^{3} = \\  - 4x {y}^{3}

So far we have -4xy^3, the next term is going to be a -9x^4y^3, and that's gonna combine with the 3x^4y^3 in the third one.

- 9 {x}^{4} {y}^{3}  + 3 {x}^{4}  {y}^{3}  =  - 6{x}^{4}  {y}^{3}

We now finished adding the like terms that were in the first polynomial, we will move onto the second polynomial. The first term in this one is 3xy^3, in which we already added in the first step. At this point, it doesn't look like there are any other terms that have the same x and y behind them. So we can move on and write the final answer:

- 4x {y}^{3} - 6 {x}^{4} {y}^{3}  + 7 {y}^{4}  \\ - 8 {x}^{4} {y}^{4}

(All on the same line of course)

Also, for your second question, the order does not matter in which you write the terms. I could write the 7y^4 behind the -8x^4y^4 and it would still be the same answer.

If you have any other questions let me know :) while I double check my work.

What is the answer to 7 (10-3x) = 5(10-4x
astra-53 [7]

Answer: 70-27x = 50-20x

Step-by-step explanation: First you do 7 x 10 which equals 70 then 7 x -3x equals -27x. Next you do 5 x 10 which is 50 next you do 5 x -4x equals -20x. So your answer is 70-27x = 50-20x

The price p (in dollars) and the demand X for a particular clock radio are related by the equation X = 3000 -10p. Find and answe
alukav5142 [94]

The price p based on the equation given is p = 3000 - 0.1x.

<h3>How to express the price?</h3>

The equation given in the question is x = 3000 - 10p. The price(p) will be:

x = 3000 - 10p.

Make p the subject of the formula

x + 10p = 3000

10p = 3000 - x

p = (3000 - x)/10

p = 3000 - 0.1x

The revenue will be price multiplied by quantity. This will be:

= (3000 - 0.1x) × x

= 3000x - 0.1x²

The marginal revenue will be calculated after differentiating. This will be:

= 3000x - 0.1x²

= 3000 - 0.2x

The demand which is the quantity based on the information will be:

3000 - 0.2x = 0

0.2x = 3000

x = 1500

for a short time after a wave is created by wind the height of the wave can be modeled using y= a sin 2pit/T where a is the ampl
dangina [55]

Answer:

y = 4 sin(t/2 + 4π/3) − 2

Step-by-step explanation:

General form:

y = a sin(2π/T t)

Given a = 4 and T = 4π:

y = 4 sin(2π/(4π) t)

y = 4 sin(t/2)

Add horizontal shift of -4π/3 and vertical shift of -2:

y = 4 sin(t/2 − (-4π/3)) − 2

y = 4 sin(t/2 + 4π/3) − 2
