Your plan was to be on the road by 9 A.M. but you did not leave the garage until 10 A.M. You then drove with the cruise control

Wittaler [7]

Answer:

The average speed over the time interval from 9 A.M. to noon was of 33.33 mph.

Step-by-step explanation:

The average speed is given by the following equation:

$v = \frac{d}{t}$

From 10A.M. to noon.

You traveled at 50mph during 2 hours. So how long you traveled?

$50 = \frac{d}{2}$

$d = 50*2$

$d = 100$

You traveled 100 miles.

What was your average speed over the time interval from 9 A.M. to noon

From 9 A.M. to 10 A.M, you did not travel.

From 10 P.M. to noon, 100 miles.

So 100 miles during 3 hours.

$v = \frac{d}{t} = \frac{100}{3} = 33.33$

The average speed over the time interval from 9 A.M. to noon was of 33.33 mph.

Find the value of x so that the line passing through the points will have the given slope: (x,6) and (10,-3) with a slope of -3/

Lana71 [14]

$(x,6) \\
x_1=x \\
y_1=6 \\ \\
(10,-3) \\
x_2=10 \\ y_2=-3 \\ \\
\hbox{the slope: } m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}=\frac{-3-6}{10-x}=\frac{-9}{10-x} \\ \\
m=-\frac{3}{2} \\
\Downarrow \\
-\frac{3}{2}=\frac{-9}{10-x} \\
-\frac{3}{2}(10-x)=-9 \\
10-x=-9 \times (-\frac{2}{3}) \\
10-x=3 \times 2 \\
10-x=6 \\
-x=6-10 \\
-x=-4 \\
\boxed{x=4}$
