Answer:
A.) f(x) = 45 - 4(x - 1)
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
It will take Tara 3 hours to get to Nashville. If they meet, it would take them 1 hour and 46 minutes or 1.766 hours.
Step-by-step explanation:
Divide 212 miles by 65 mph: 212÷65=3.2 and 3.2 rounded is 3. They will each drive half the way if they meet in the middle, so 212 miles divided by 2 is 106. Divide that by 60: 106/60=1.766. That is equivalent to 1 hour and 46 minutes.
This involves quite a lot of arithmetic to do manually.
The first thing you do is to make the first number in row 2 = to 0.
This is done by R2 = -3/2 R1 + R2
so the matrix becomes
( 2 1 1) ( -3 )
( 0 -13/2 3/2) (1/2 )
(5 -1 2) (-2)
Next step is to make the 5 in row 5 = 0
then the -1 must become zero
You aim for the form
( 1 0 0) (x)
(0 1 0) (y)
(0 0 1) ( z)
x , y and z will be the required solutions.
