Answer:

The rate at which the distance between the two cars is increasing is 30 mi/h

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

speed of the first car, v₁ = 24 mi/h

speed of the second car, v₂ = 18 mi/h

Two hours later, the position of the cars is calculated as;

position of the first car, d₁ = 24 mi/h  x 2 h  = 48 mi

position of the second car, d₂ = 18 mi/h  x 2 h = 36 mi

The displacement of the two car is calculated as;

displacement, d² = 48² + 36²

                        d² = 3600

                        d = √3600

                        d = 60 mi

The rate at which this displacement is changing = (60 mi) / (2h)

                                                                                 = 30 mi/h

The midpoint of UV is (5, -10). The coordinates of one endpoint are U(3,6). Find the coordinates of endpoint V.
Grace [21]

The answer is (7, -26) for The second endpoint.  

We'll call the midpoint M. In order to find this, we must first note that to find a midpoint we need to take the average of the endpoints. To do this we add them together and then divide by 2. So, using that, we can write a formula and solve for each part of the k coordinates. We'll start with just x values.

(Ux + Vx)/2 = Mx

(Vx + 3)/2 = 5

Vx + 3 = 10

Vx = 7

And now we do the same thing for y values

(Uy + Vy)/2 = My

(Vy + 6)/2 = -10

Vy + 6 = -20

Vy = -26

This gives us the final point of (7, -26)

H(t) = 4t+20 What is h(_____)=4?
kaheart [24]

Answer:  h(-4)  

Step-by-step explanation:

If h(x) something is equal to 4  then set the equation equal 4  and solve for t.

4t +20 = 4

    -20    -20  

4t = -16

t = -4  

So h(-4) = 4

Anyone know this please???
Kazeer [188]

Answer: Choice A

The triangles are congruent because both the corresponding sides of the triangles and the corresponding angles of the triangles are congruent.

==============================================

Explanation:

Congruent triangles are identical copies of one another. This means the corresponding pieces must be the same.

It's like saying two houses are identical, so that means the all the various parts (eg: front door, windows, etc) must be identical. If let's say the two front doors were different, then the houses wouldn't be completely identical.

Going back to the triangles, we know that the sides are congruent by the tickmarks

  • side MN = side RS (single tickmark)
  • side NP = side ST (double tickmarks)
  • side MP = side RT (triple tickmarks)

That takes care of the first part of choice A.

And similarly, the angle markers tell us which angles are congruent

  • angle M = angle R  (single arc)
  • angle N = angle S (90 degree angle marker)
  • angle P = angle T (double arc)

That concludes the second part of choice A.
