Correct question is;

The function f(x) = 6x + 8 represents the distance run by a cheetah in miles. The function g(x) = x − 2 represents the time the cheetah ran in hours. Solve (f/g)(3), and interpret the answer.

Answer:

26 is the cheetahs rate in miles per hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given;

f(x) = 6x + 8

g(x) = x − 2

Thus;

f/g = f(x)/g(x)

> (6x + 8)/(x − 2)

Since we are looking for (f/g)(3), then we have;

> (6(3) + 8)/((3) − 2) = 26

Since f(x) is distance and g(x) is time, then, we know that distance/time = speed. Thus, the interpretation is 26 mph which is the speed of the cheetah.

Determine the measure of each segment then indicate whether the statements are true or false
kupik [55]

Answer:

d_{AB}\ne d_{JK}

d_{AB}\ne \:d_{GH}

d_{GH}\ne \:d_{JK}

Therefore,

Option (A) is false

Option (B) is false

Option (C) is false

Step-by-step explanation:

Considering the graph

Given the vertices of the segment AB

  • A(-4, 4)
  • B(2, 5)

Finding the length of AB using the formula

d_{AB}\:=\:\sqrt{\left(x_2-x_1\right)^2+\left(y_2-y_1\right)^2}

        =\sqrt{\left(2-\left(-4\right)\right)^2+\left(5-4\right)^2}

         =\sqrt{\left(2+4\right)^2+\left(5-4\right)^2}

         =\sqrt{6^2+1}

         =\sqrt{36+1}

        =\sqrt{37}

d_{AB}\:=\sqrt{37}

d_{AB}=6.08 units        

Given the vertices of the segment JK

  • J(2, 2)
  • K(7, 2)

From the graph, it is clear that the length of JK = 5 units

so

d_{JK}=5 units

Given the vertices of the segment GH

  • G(-5, -2)
  • H(-2, -2)

Finding the length of GH using the formula

d_{GH}\:=\:\sqrt{\left(x_2-x_1\right)^2+\left(y_2-y_1\right)^2}

         =\sqrt{\left(-2-\left(-5\right)\right)^2+\left(-2-\left(-2\right)\right)^2}

          =\sqrt{\left(5-2\right)^2+\left(2-2\right)^2}

          =\sqrt{3^2+0}

           =\sqrt{3^2}

\mathrm{Apply\:radical\:rule\:}\sqrt[n]{a^n}=a,\:\quad \mathrm{\:assuming\:}a\ge 0

d_{GH}\:=\:3 units

Thus, from the calculations, it is clear that:

d_{AB}=6.08  

d_{JK}=5

d_{GH}\:=\:3

Thus,

d_{AB}\ne d_{JK}

d_{AB}\ne \:d_{GH}

d_{GH}\ne \:d_{JK}

Therefore,

Option (A) is false

Option (B) is false

Option (C) is false

Solve this system algebraically.
seraphim [82]
From y-2x+3=0 we have y=2x-3
So we can replace y by 2x-3 in the equation: 9x+2y=5
And we have 9x+2(2x-3)=5
Or 9x+4x-6=5
and 13x=5+6
Or x=11/13, then y=2x-3= 2. 11/13-3=22/13-3= -17/13

So we have the answer <span>{(11/13, -17/13)}</span>

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

3      -4    |   2

0      -1     |   7

3/2    -2    |   1

R1/3 ----> R1  (divide Row 1 by 3)

1       -4/3    |  2/3

0        -1      |   7

3/2      -2     |   1

R3 - 3/2  R1 -------> R3 (multiply Row 1 by 3/2 and subtract it from Row 3)

1      -4/3    |   2/3

0       -1      |    7

0       0      |    0

R2 / -1 -------> R2 (Divide Row 2 by -1)

1      -4/3   |  2/3

0        1     |   -7

0        0    |   0

R1 + 4/3 R2 --------> R1 (Multiply Row 2 by 4/3 and add it to Row 1)

1     0     |   -26/3

0    1      |      -7

0    0     |      0
