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.

What is the inverse of the function f(x) = 2x - 10?
love history [14]
F(x)=2x-10

y=2x-10

x=2y-10

x+10=2y-10+10 (add both sides by 10)

2y=x+10

2y/2=x+10/2 (divide both sides by 2)

y=1/2x+5

Final Answer: f^-1(x)=1/2x+5

What is the equation for this graph pls help me and pls make sure it’s right:))
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

y = 5x + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

First I found the slope by using the the definition that slope is rise/run so I saw that the y value went up from 4 to 9 which is 5 units and then the x value went up one in that same time. This means that the slope is 5/1. Then I found the y intercept by seeing where x = 0. On the graph you can see the line touches the y - axis at a value of 4 which means that the y - intercept is 4. Plugging these values into the y = mx + b equation you get y = 5x + 4.

Ricardo Gutierrez has a box of coins that he uses when playing poker with friends. The box currently contains 46 coins, consisit
Nonamiya [84]
Let x be the number of pennies which is also equal to the number of dimes. By this representation, the number of quarters is equal 46 - 2x. The total amount is $4.87 or 487 cents. The equation that best represent the given is,
                                  x + 10x + 25(46 - 2x) = 487
The value of x from the equation is 17. Therefore, there are 17 of both pennies and dimes and 12 quarters.

How do you graph y= -3x + 5
ZanzabumX [31]
You first find its intercepts: the x intercept is (5/3,0) and the y intercept is (0,5) (just plot those points). Then make the line connecting those 2 points!
