Yes i think it is a function
Answer:
The distance each bus travels is given as d=tr where
- d is distance bus travels
- t is a time bus travels
- r is the speed of the bus
:
Distance first bus travels for 4 hours is d1=4r.
Distance other bus travels for 4 hours is d2=4(r+12).
:
The total distance between them is 480 miles and since they go in opposite directions this distance is the sum of distances each bus travels.
:
d1+d2=480
4r+4(r+12)=480
4r+4r+48=480
8r+48=480
8r=432
r=432/8
r=54 mph, this is a speed of the first bus
:
r+12=66 mph, this is the speed of the second bus
Hope this helps you!!!! :D
2x+4=7 subtract 4 from both sides
2x=3 divide both sides by 2
x=3/2
x=1.5
The absolute value of a number will never be negative because absolute value is the distance from zero, so it will always be positive. For example, you can't be -6 away from 0, you are 6 away from 0.
