Chicago to KC

d = ??

v = 440 knots

t = t - 3

KC to Chicago

d = ?? But it is the same distance as the givens above.

v = 110 knots

t = t hours

Equation

d = r * t

Solve

Since the distances are the same you can equate the r * t

440 * (t - 3) = 110 * t The numbers would be a lot smaller if you divided both sides by 110

[440 * (t - 3)] / 110 = 110 t / 110

4*(t - 3) = t Remove the brackets.

4t - 12 = t Subtract t from both sides

3t - 12 = 0 Add 12 to both sides

3t = 12 Divide by 3

t = 12/3

t = 4 The time to fly for the slower plane = 4 hours.

Solve for distance.

d = r * t

d = 110knots / hr * 3 hr

d = 440 knots. You should get exactly the same thing for t if you do not divide by sides by 110 knots

440 * (t - 3) = 110*t

440 f - 440 * 3 = 110*t

440t - 1320 = 110t Subtract 110t

440t - 110t - 1320 = 0

330t - 1320 = 0

330t = 1320

t = 1320 / 330

t = 4 Same answer.

Which graph best represents the function f(x)=2x ?
yan [13]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

The best - well, only way- is to check a few points.

Namely -1 (unless your eyesight is really poor!), 0, 1, 2, and 3.

f(x) = 2^x\\f(-1) = 2^-^1 = \frac12\\f(0) =2^0 =1\\f(1)= 2^1=2\\f(2)=2^2=4\\f(3)=2^3= 8

Now you can mark all these points in each graph (well, you could if they were on paper and not on a screen) and see which one of the lines passes through all of them. Spoiler alert, it's the B graph.

A represents 2(2^x) = 2^{x+1}, B is the one you want, C is \frac{2^x}2 = 2^{x-1} and D looks like 4^x = 2^2^x

Cressida decided to save a part of her income in a savings account that compounds interest every four months. Her account balanc
Bogdan [553]

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

account balance on compound interest = principal amount (1+rate/100)^time

here there are t years  so toat months are 12t and ad interest is after each 4 months so time is 12t/4 =3t

now total balance = 3545(1.045)^3t

here 3545 is principal amount , rate is( 1.045-1)×100 =4.5% per 4 months and 3t is time so clearly 3t or 3 is a growth factor hence option A

aliya0001 [1]

Answer:

112

Step-by-step explanation:

Define the variables:

x = number of French students sent by the school

Write the equation:

x / 21 = 1 / 3

Solve:

x = 7

The school sent 7 French students and 21 German students, for a total of 28 students.

The other 3 schools also sent 28 students.  So the total number of students sent is:

4 × 28 = 112
