Answer: 8 hours
Step-by-step explanation: You would first multiply 2 hours by 4 mph, and get 8 miles. You would then subtract 8 miles from 26 miles, and have 18 miles left. You would now divide 18 miles by 3, as he is now traveling 3 miles per hour and needs to travel 18 miles. You would get 6 hours. You would now add 6 hours by the 2 hours initially traveled at 4 mph, and get 8 hours.
Let:
Philadelphia be point a
Pittsburgh be point b
Distance traveled by Michelle be x
Distance traveled by Rich be 305 x
The general formula is:
distance = velocity (time)
substituting the values:
michelle: X = 65(t)
rich: 305 - X = 70 t
substituting both equations gives:
X = 146.562 miles
t = 2.26 hours or 2 hours and 15 mins
We first need to pick the correct piece to use. In this case, we will use f(x) = -x-5 because -5<=-4.
Then, we use direct substitution:
f(-4) = -(-4) - 5
f(-4) = -1
Answer:
(5x+2)(3x-2)
Step-by-step explanation:
Alright so if you have a negative number let's say -5 if you put the absolute value symbols around it like so |-5| then it becomes positive. Whatever is in the lines becomes positive, that's why I call it the positive box. It describes the distance of a number on the number line from 0 without considering which direction from zero the number lies. The number is never negative
