Answer:

a = - 4, b = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Expand the left side, then compare the coefficients of like terms.

- 3(2x² + ax + b)

= - 6x² - 3ax - 3b, compare to - 6x² + 12x - 15

Compare coefficients of x- terms

- 3a = 12 ( divide both sides by - 3 )

a = - 4

Compare constant terms

- 3b = - 15 ( divide both sides by - 3 )

b = 5

Answer:

2(W - 5) ≤ -29      

Step-by-step explanation:

"Twice the difference of a number and 5 is at most -29" can be expressed symbolically as follows:

2(W - 5) ≤ -29      

Further explanations:

"the difference of a number and 5" is W - 5, and thus "Twice the difference of a number and 5" is 2(W - 5).

"x ≤ -29" states "x is at most -29."

Help,, i'll mark as brainliest

The first question would be distance from the start, as it is steadily going up as time goes on.

The second question would be distance from the end, as it is steadily going down as time goes on.

The third question would be speed, as the speed is staying stable as shown by the straight lines seen within the distance from start/end graphs being linear lines.
