Answer:

[0.25, 2]

Step-by-step explanation:

We have

4t² ≤ 9t-2

subtract 9t-2 from both sides to make this a quadratic

4t²-9t+2 ≤ 0

To solve this, we can solve for 4t²-9t+2=0 and do some guess and check to find which values result in the function being less than 0.

4t²-9t+2=0

We can see that -8 and -1 add up to -9, the coefficient of t, and 4 (the coefficient of t²) and 2 multiply to 8, which is also equal to -8 * -1. Therefore, we can write this as

4t²-8t-t+2=0

4t(t-2)-1(t-2)=0

(4t-1)(t-2)=0

Our zeros are thus t=2 and t = 1/4. Using these zeros, we can set up three zones: t < 1/4, 1/4<t<2, and t>2. We can take one random value from each of these zones and see if it fits the criteria of

4t²-9t+2 ≤ 0

For t<1/4, we can plug in 0. 4(0)²-9(0) + 2 = 2 >0 , so this is not correct

For 1/4<t<2, we can plug 1 in. 4(1)²-9(1) +2 = -3 <0, so this is correct

For t > 2, we can plug 5 in. 4(5)²-9(5) + 2 = 57 > 0, so this is not correct.

Therefore, for 4t^2 ≤ 9t-2 , which can also be written as 4t²-9t+2 ≤ 0, when t is between 1/4 and 2, the inequality is correct. Furthermore, as the sides are equal when t= 1/4 and t=2, this can be written as [0.25, 2]

s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer:

In 4 months, they will both have 132 stamps.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = # of months

52 + 20x = 68 + 16x

4x = 16

x = 4

Plug x value into both expressions and see if it checks out

52 + 20(4) = 68 + 16(4)

52 + 80 = 68 + 64

132 = 132

jennifer walks 8 miles in the same time she can jog 13 miles. if her jogging speed is 8mph faster than her walking speed, how fa
Elanso [62]

Answer:

12.8mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Let 'w' represent her walking speed

->if her jogging speed is 8mph faster than her walking speed

Jogging speed=  w+8

Using the time equation i.e time = dist/speed

For walking when distance is 8miles

time = dist / speed= 8/w hrs

For jogging when distance is 13miles

time = dist / speed= 13/(w+8) hrs

Equating the time

jog time = walk time

13/(w+8) = 8/w

By cross multiplying it

13w = 8w + 64

5w = 64

w=64/5

w=12.8mph

Therefore, 12.8mph is her walking speed.
