A man travels 20 km by car from Town P to Town Q at an average speed of x km/h. He finds that the time of the journey would be s
yuradex [85]

Answer:

x = 20.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you should remember the relation:

Distance = Speed*Time.

First, we know that a man travels a distance of 20km at a speed of x km/h, in a time T.

We can write this as:

20km = (x km/h)*T

We know that the time is shortened by 12 minutes if the speed is increased by 5km/h

Rewriting these 12 minutes in hours (remember that 60min = 1 hour)

12 min = (12/60) hours = 0.2 hours

Then from this, he can travel the same distance of 20km in a time T minus 0.2 hours if the speed is increased by 5 km/h

We can write this as:

20km = (x + 5 km/h)*(T - 0.2 h)

Then we have a system of two equations, and we want to find the value of x:

20km = (x km/h)*T

20km = (x + 5 km/h)*(T - 0.2 h)

First, we should isolate the variable T in one of the equations, if we isolate it in the first one, we will get:

20km/(x km/h) = T

Replacing that in the other equation we get:

20km = (x + 5 km/h)*(T - 0.2 h)

20km = (x + 5 km/h)*( 20km/(x km/h) - 0.2 h)

Now we can solve this for x.

Removing the units (that we know that are correct) so the math is easier to read, we get:

20 = (x + 5)*(20/x - 0.2)

We only want to solve this for x.

20 = x*20/x - x*0.2 + 5*20/x - 5*0.2

20 = 20 - 0.2*x + 100/x - 1

subtracting 20 in both sides we get:

20 - 20 = 20 - 0.2*x + 100/x - 1 - 20

0 = -0.2*x + 100/x - 1

If we multiply both sides by x we get:

0 = -0.2*x^2 + 100 - x

-0.2*x^2 - x + 100 = 0

This is just a quadratic equation, we can solve it using the Bhaskara's equation, the solutions are:

x = \frac{-(-1) \pm \sqrt{(-1)^2 - 4*(-0.2)*100} }{2*-0.2}  = \frac{1 \pm 9 }{-0.4}

Then the two solutions are:

x = (1 + 9)/-0.4 = -25

x = (1 - 9)/-0.4 = 20

As x is used to represent a speed, the negative solution does not make sense, so we should use the positive one.

x = 20

then the average speed initially is 20 km/h

What is the slope of the line given by the equation y=-1/3x? Entee your answer as an integer or fraction in lowest terms.
Serhud [2]
-1/3

really? it's that easy dude. 

whatever number is next to x, like say, 3x, that number would be the slope, so it would be 3.

hope it helped.

Match the function with its graph.
Oxana [17]

Answer:

The answer is 1D , 2A , 3C , 4B ⇒ answer (c)

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets talk about the transformation

- If the function f(x) reflected across the x-axis, then the new

 function g(x) = - f(x)

- If the function f(x) translated horizontally to the right  

 by h units, then the new function g(x) = f(x - h)

- If the function f(x) translated horizontally to the left  

 by h units, then the new function g(x) = f(x + h)

* Lets explain each function

∵ y = tan(x)

∵ y = -tan(x - π/2)

# (x - π/2) means the graph translated horizontally to

  the right π/2 units

# -tan(x - π/2) means the graph reflected across the x-axis

∴ The graph is (D)

* 1) y = -tan(x - π/2) ⇒ (D)

∵ y = tan(x + π/2)

# (x + π/2) means the graph translated horizontally to

  the left π/2 units

∴ The graph is (A)

* 2) y = -tan(x - π/2) ⇒ (A)

∵ y = -cot(x - π/2)

# (x - π/2) means the graph translated horizontally to

  the right π/2 units

# -cot(x - π/2) means the graph reflected across the x-axis

∴ The graph is (C)

* 3) y = -cot(x - π/2) ⇒ (C)

∵ y = cot(x + π/2)

# (x + π/2) means the graph translated horizontally to

  the left π/2 units

∴ The graph is (B)

* 4) y = -tan(x - π/2) ⇒ (B)

∴ The answer is 1D , 2A , 3C , 4B answer (c)
