Answer:

36 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Maya can bike 9 miles in one hours, meaning that she can bike 27 miles in 3 hours. Since Maya can run 18 miles in 3 hours, and half of 3 is 1.5, she can run 9 miles in 1.5 hours.

Biking Miles + Running Miles= Total Miles

27 + 9= 36 total miles

Answer:

$\displaystyle C=\left(\frac{26}{9}, 2\right)$

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find the equation of the tangent lines of Points A and B.

Differentiate the equation:

$\displaystyle \frac{dy}{dx}=3x^2-3$

Point A has an x-coordinate of -1. Hence, the slope of its tangent line is:

$\displaystyle \frac{dy}{dx}\Big|_{x=-1}=3(-1)^2-3=0$

Find the y-coordinate of Point A using the original equation:

$y(-1)=(-1)^3-3(-1)=2$

Hence, Point A is (-1, 2).

Thus, the tangent line at Point A is:

$y-2=0(x-(-1))$

Simplify:

$y=2$

Point B has an x-coordinate of 4. Hence, the slope of its tangent line is:

$\displaystyle \frac{dy}{dx}\Big|_{x=4}=3(4)^2-3=45$

Find the y-coordinate of Point B:

$y(4)=(4)^3-3(4)=52$

Thus, Point B is at (4, 52).

So, the tangent line at Point B is:

$y-52=45(x-4)$

Simplify:

$y=45x-128$

Point C occurs at the intersections of the tangent lines of Points A and B. Set the two equations equal to each other and solve for x:

$2=45x-128$

We acquire:

$\displaystyle x=\frac{26}{9}$

Since one of our equations is y = 2, the y-coordinate is 2.

Hence, Point C is:

$\displaystyle C=\left(\frac{26}{9}, 2\right)$

How do you use the additive inverse to evaluate an expression that uses subtraction?

Harlamova29_29 [7]

You use additive inverse to combine like terms that are on opposite sides of the equation.
ie.
3x + 1 = 6x -12
You use additive inverse to move -12 to the +1
