Answer:

200 miles

Explaination:

in order to fiind the point of interaction you must put the world problem into an liner equation.

y=mx+b

key:

miles : x

y= 0.70x + 120

&

y= 0.90x + 80

now you put them together

0.70x + 120 = 0.90x + 80

-0.70x. -0.70x

____________________ subtract slope from both sides

120 = 0.20x + 80. ( doesn't matter which one)

-80 - 80

____________________ subtract

40 = 0.20x

_________ Divide each # with the slope

0.20 0.20

200 = x

hope this helps!

Which transformations are needed to change the parent some function to the sine function below?
Marrrta [24]
Beginning with the function y = sin x, which would have range from -1 to 1 and period of 2pi:
Vertical compression of 1/2 compresses the range from -1/2 to 1/2
Phase shift of pi/2 to the left
Horizontal stretch to a period of 4pi, as the crests are at -4pi, 0, 4pi
Vertical shift of 1 unit up moves the range to 1/2 to 3/2
So the first choice looks like a good answer.

Select the property of equality used to arrive at the conclusion <br> if x-3=7 , then x=10
Fantom [35]

Answer:

The addition property of equality  

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the addition property of equality, if we add the same number to each side of an equation, the equality is still true.

We are given the equation

x – 3 = 7, and we must solve for x.

We want to get x by itself, so we <em>add 3 to each side</em>.

x – 3 + 3 = 7 + 3

             x = 10

We have just used the addition property of equality.
