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.

Given the function f(x) = 3x, find the value of f−1(81).
Shalnov [3]
Given the function f (x) = 3x, find the value of f-1 (81).
 For this case, the first thing you should do is rewrite the function.
 We have then:
 y = 3 ^ x
 From here, we clear the value of x:
 log3 (y) = log3 (3 ^ x)
 log3 (y) = x
 Then, we rewrite the function again:
 f (x) ^ - 1 = log3 (x)
 Now, we evaluate the inverse function for x = 81:
 f (81) ^ - 1 = log3 (81)
 f (x) ^ - 1 = 4
 Answer:
 the value of f-1 (81) is: 
 f (x) ^ - 1 = 4

What is the perimeter of a triangle with side lengths of 9, 12, and 4x?
ludmilkaskok [199]
The answer is 21 + 4x.


You find this answer by adding up all the sides.
9+12+4x= 21+4x ... you don't add 4x because it has a variable that we do not know of the value.

Find an equation of the line perpendicular to y=4x+5 and that passes through the point (0,-1)
iragen [17]

Answer:

y = -1/4x - 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 4x + 5

The slope of this is 4 so the slope of line perpendicular to this line = -1/4.

Using the formula y - y1 = m(x - x1):

y - (-1) = -1/4(x - 0)

y + 1 = -1/4x

y = -1/4x - 1.
