Answer:

  2.5 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

The product of speed and time is distance. If the distance is the same, then time is inversely proportional to speed. At 60/50 = 6/5 times the speed, the return trip will take 5/6 times the time:

  (5/6)(3 hours) = 2.5 hours . . . time for return trip

What is the effect on the graph of the function f(x)=x when f(x) is replaced with -1/2f(x)?
Alja [10]

Answer:

The line will change its slope by a factor of -2 (line will now "point down" with twice the original steepness)

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = x    | replace f(x) --> (-1/2)f(x)

(-1/2)f(x) = x

f(x) = -2x
