X+(x+18)=$56
56-18=38
38/2=19

She spent $19 on accessories
19+18= $37 on clothes
$37+$19=$56

The time t required to drive certain distance varies inversely with the speed r. It takes 2 hours to drive the distance at 40 mi

Roman55 [17]

Answer:

$\frac{16}{9}$ hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Whenever 2 quantities (suppose a and b) are inversely proportional to each other, we can write an proportionality equation (with k as proportional constant) as:

$a=\frac{k}{b}$

Since, here t is INVERSELY PROPORTIONAL to r, we can say:

$t=\frac{k}{r}$

Firstly, we have t = 2 hour and r = 40 mph, so we find k:

$t=\frac{k}{r}\\2=\frac{k}{40}\\k=2*40\\k=80$

Now, secondly, we have r = 45 and k = 80, we need to find t:

$t=\frac{80}{45}\\t=\frac{16}{9}$

So, it would take $\frac{16}{9}$ hours

Which expression is a linear factor of x6 +x-66?

Naddik [55]

Answer:

Option D.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression is

$x^6+x-66$

It is a polynomial.

(x-c) is a linear factor of polynomial p(x) if p(c)=0.

Substitute x=-1 in the given expression.

$(1)^6+(1)-66=-64\neq 0$

It means (x+1) is not a linear factor of given expression.

Substitute x=-2 in the given expression.

$(-2)^6+(-2)-66=-4\neq 0$

It means (x+2) is not a linear factor of given expression.

Substitute x=-4 in the given expression.

$(-4)^6+(-4)-66=4026\neq 0$

It means (x+4) is not a linear factor of given expression.

None of the given options are a linear factor of given expression.

Therefore, the correct option is D.
