Mom drove for 11 hours.

Dad drove for 3 hours.

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

  • Total hours = 14 hours
  • Total distance = 895 miles
  • Mom drove a speed of 65 mph
  • Dad drove a speed of 60 mph

Let 'x' be the number of hours drove by mom.

Let 'y' be the number of hours drove by dad.

x + y = 14     ---------------(1)

65x + 60y = 895  ---------(2)

Multiply eq(1) by 60 and subtract eq(2) from (1),

60x + 60y = 840

-(<u>65x + 60y = 895</u>)

 <u> -5x   = -55    </u>

x = 55/5

x = 11

∴ Mom drove for 11 hours.

Substitute x=11 in eq(1)

11+y = 14

y = 3

∴ Dad drove for 3 hours.

Eduardwww [97]

Answer:

-2 \geq w \geq 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

|-w| \geq 2

Required

Solve for w

|-w| \geq 2

In absolution functions;

|-w| = |w|

So, the given expression can be rewritten as

|w| \geq 2

Removing the absolute sign, will gibe

w \geq 2 or w \leq -2

When the second inequality os rewritten, it gives

w \geq 2 or -2 \geq w

Reorder both inequalities

-2 \geq w or w \geq 2

Lastly, both inequalities are combined

-2 \geq w \geq 2

Tanzania [10]

Answer: chord

Step-by-step explanation:

A chord is a straight line that's typically drawn from one particular edge of a circle to another.

In this case, the diameter is 14cm while the length of the line drawn is 11cm, therefore the diameter isn't a chord. It's not a radius as well as the diameter divided by 2 gives the radius which should be 7cm.

Therefore, it's a chord.
