Answer:
1. 24.36
2. Do the same thing (follow the steps in the picture)
Step-by-step explanation:

the equation is a quadratic one, and it has a positive coefficient on the leading term, meaning, is opening upwards, so it has a "burrow" for the vertex.
the minimum or lowest point for a quadratic opening upwards is, well, the vertex point :), the "x" value is the year, the "y" or f(x) value is the population, we're asked for the year, or the x-coordinate of the vertex
well
Answer:
53.33 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
Speed is the rate of change of distance with time. Mathematically,
speed = distance/time
and is measured in miles per hour or meter per second.
To get the average speed over the entire trip, we must get the total time spent on trip and the total distance, then apply the speed formula
Time for the first 300 miles
= 300/60
= 5 hours
Time spent on the last 100
= 100/40
= 2.5 hours
Total time of the trip = 5 + 2.5
= 7.5 hours
Total distance covered
= 300 miles + 100 miles
= 400 miles
Average speed on the trip
= 400/7.5
= 53.33 miles per hour
