1. Since -4 doesn’t equal -2, we will use the first function. All you have to do is plug in -4 to x, and you should get
-3
2. -2=-2, so we will use the second function to get the answer of
3
3. Once again we will be using the first function, so just plug 5 into the answer to get
-7.5
Hope this helped :)
Answer:
the answer is D.
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Multiply out the brackets</u>
48x - 80 - 40x + 80 = 40 → <em>negative + negative = positive [-10 x -8]</em>
<u>Step 2: Simplify</u>
8x = 40 →<em> collect like terms</em>
<u>Step 3: Solve</u>
x = 
x = 5
42/28 = 1.5
3 times 1.5 = 4.5
he would be able to run 4 and a half miles in 42 minutes
