Problema Solution
Terrance and Jesse are training for a long-distance race. Terrance trains at a rate of 6 miles every half hour, and Jesse trains at a rate of 2 miles every 15 minutes.
How long will each person take to run a total of 50 miles at the given rates?
Answer provided by our tutors
d = 50 mi the distance
t1 = the time of Terrance
t2 = the time of Jesse
Terrance trains at a rate of 6 miles every half hour thus his rate is:
v1 = 6/0.5 = 12 mph
Jesse trains at a rate of 2 miles every 15 minutes thus his rate is:
v2 = 2/(15/60) = 8 mph
since speed = distance/time follows time = distance/speed:
t1 = d/v1
t1 = 50/12
t1 = 4 1/6 hr
t1 = 4 hr 10 min
t2 = d/v2
t2 = 50/8
t2 = 6 1/4 hr
t2 = 6 hr 15 min
Terrance will run 4 hours and 10 minutes.
Jesse will run 6 hours and 15 minutes.
For this case we must find the inverse of the following function:

For this, we follow the steps below:
We change f (x) to y:

We exchange the variables:

We solve for y:

We divide between 8 on both sides of the equation:

We raise both sides of the equation to the square to remove the root:

So, the inverse is:

Option C
Answer:
See explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
Plot the solution sets to both inequalities.
1. For the inequality
First, plot the dotted line
(dotted because sign is without notion "or equal to"), then choose correct part by substitution coordinates of the origin.

so the origin does not belong to the needed part. Shade the part, which does not include origin.
2. For the inequality
First, plot the dotted line
(dotted because sign is without notion "or equal to"), then choose correct part by substitution coordinates of the origin.

so the origin does not belong to the needed part. Shade the part, which does not include origin.
3. Find the common region of these two shaded parts - this is the solution to the system of two inequalities.
