Answer:

Cathy was driving at a speed of 67 miles per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

Fined $15 for each mile per hour over the speed limit. Cathy was given a ticket for $105.

We solve this using a rule of three.

1 mile - $15

x miles - $105

Applying cross multiplication:

15x = 105

x = 105/5 = 7.

Cathy was 7 miles above the speed limit.

How fast was Cathy driving?

7 miles above the speed limit of 60 miles per hour, so 60 + 7 = 67 miles per hour.

Cathy was driving at a speed of 67 miles per hour.

Use the discriminant to determine how many real number solutions exist for the quadratic equations -4j+3j-28=0
aleksandr82 [10.1K]
<span>the correct equation is
- 4j² + 3j - 28 =0

 ax² + bx + c,
 a = -4, b=3  c =- 28.
The discriminent D = b² - 4.a.cD = 3² - 4(-4)(-28)D = -439 
If D ≥ 0 there are either 2 roots or one double if = 0)if D< 0, there are no real roots (but 2 imaginary roots)Since D < 0, then there is no real roots
 The answer there is no real roots</span>

Without actually carrying out the steps of multiplication, determine whether the product of 15.1 and 0.9 will be larger or small
yan [13]

Answer: Smaller

Step-by-step explanation: The product of 15.1 and 0.9 will be smaller than 15.1. This is because 0.9 is smaller than 1 and since 15.1 * 1 is 15.1, we know that anything smaller than 1 will result in the product of it and 15.1 being smaller.

Would appreciate brainly <3
