Answer:

63 miles per hour

54 miles per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the two buses be represented as bus A and bus B.

bus A and bus B leave a station at the same time and travel in opposite directions.

Let the speed of bus A be A miles per hour.

Let the speed of bus B be B miles per hour.

One bus travels 9 miles/hour slower than the other.

Let bus A be the faster bus.

This means that the speed of bus B is B = A - 9

If the two buses are 585 miles apart after 5hours, this means that after 5hours, the total distance travelled by bus A and bus B is 585 miles.

Distance travelled by bus A in 5 hours = speed × time = 5A

Distance travelled by bus B in 5 hours = speed × time = 5B

5A + 5B = 585 - - - - - -1

Substituting B = A - 9 in equation 1

5A + 5(A - 9) = 585

5A + 5A - 45 = 585

10A = 585 + 45 = 630

A = 630/10 = 63 miles per hour

B = A - 9 = 63 - 9 = 54 miles per hour

F(x)= 3x - 4x2 +6x and g(x)= 5x +2x2 – 3x. What is f(x) g(x)?
goldenfox [79]

f(x)g(x) = 9x² + 10x - 16

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Step 1:

Given f(x) = 3x - 4 × 2 + 6x and g(x) = 5x + 2 × 2 - 3x

f(x) = 9x - 8

g(x) = 2x + 4

f(x)g(x) = (9x - 8)(2x + 4)

= 18x² + 36x - 16x -32

= 18x² + 20x - 32

= 9x² + 10x - 16
