Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

let speed of Stephen=x mph

speed of Diana=x+4

then

6x+6(x+4)=276

divide by 6

x+x+4=276/6=46

2x=46-4=42

x=42/2=21

Stephen is traveling at  21 mph.

Diana is traveling at 21+4=25 mph.

Answer:

  yes

Step-by-step explanation:

There are several ways to go at this.

My first choice is to use a graphing calculator. It shows the function has a zero at x=5, so x-5 is a factor.

Another good choice is to use synthetic division (2nd attachment). If the remainder is zero, then x-5 is a factor. It is and it is.

__

You can also evaluate the function at x=5. The remainder theorem tells you that if the value is zero, then x-5 is a factor. Evaluating the polynomial written in Horner form is a lot like synthetic division.

  (((x -4)x -15)x +58)x -40 for x=5 is ... (-10·5 +58)5 -40 = 40-40 = 0

The value of h(5) is zero, so x-5 is a factor of h(x).

Serjik [45]

Answer:

We can measure 4 gallon by successively.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that you have an 8-gallon jug of water and two empty jugs with capacities of 5 gallons and 3 gallons, respectively. We are asked to prove or disprove that you can measure 4 gallon by successively pouring some of or all of the water in a jug into another jug.

First of all, we will pour 5 gallons of water from 8 gallon jug. Then we will pour 5 gallons of water from 5 gallon jug to 3 gallon jug. That will result in 2 gallons of water in 5 gallon jug.

Now, we will pour 3 gallons of water from 3 gallon jug to 8 gallon jug and pour 2 gallons from 5 gallon jug into 3 gallon jug. That will give us 6 gallons in 8 gallon jug and 2 gallons in 3 gallon jug and empty 5 gallon jug.

In our last step, we will fill 5 gallons jug from 8 gallon jug. After filling 5 gallon jug, we will fill 3 gallons jug from 5 gallon jug. Since 3 gallon jug already contains 2 gallons water, so it can only take one more gallon.

After pouring one gallon from 5 gallon jug, we will get 4 gallons water in 5 gallon jug.

Therefore, we can measure 4 gallon by successively pouring some of the water in a jug into another jug.

Fantom [35]

Answer:

Danielle earns $1.20 more than Mackenzie (per hour)

Step-by-step explanation:

To find out how much money per hour each person earns, you would divide the earinings by the number of hours;

Danielle: $36.80/4 = $9.20 per hour

MackKenzie: $50.40/6 = $8.40 per hour

To find out how much extra Danielle earns, you would subtract 8.40 from 9.20;

9.40 - 8.20 = $1.20

Thus, Danielle earns $1.20 more than Mackenzie per hour.
