Answer:

speed of motorcycle = 40 mph

speed of car = 50 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Here is the complete question

A car and a motorcycle leave at noon from the same location, heading in the same direction. The average speed of the car is 30 mph slower than twice the speed of the motorcycle. In two hours, the car is 20 miles ahead of the motorcycle. Find the speed of both the car and the motorcycle, in miles per hour.

Speed = distance / time

This question would be solved using simultaneous equation

let m =  average speed of the motorcycle

c = average speed of the car

c = 2m - 30  equation 1

20 =(c - m) x 2 equation 2

insert equation 1 into equation 2 and divide through by 2

10 = (2m - 30) - m

solve for m

m = 40 mph

substitute for m in equation 1

2(40) - 20 = 50 mph

I'm new to this and I dont really understand this
agasfer [191]

Answer:

So starting off with 1a f(4)

We simply substitute x with 4 for the function

f(4)=2(4)-5

f(4)=8-5

f(4)=3

Next 1b, here it's a little different since you have to multiply the functions I think ( please correct me if I'm wrong).

gf(4), basically means functions g and f are being multiplied and their variables are being substituted with 4.

g(4)=4^2+3

g(4)=16+3

g(4)=19

and we also know from before that f(4)=3, so we'll do 19 times 3 which is 57

For the next two, I may be wrong, but I'm still going to try:

anything to the power of a negative is a fraction so for f^-1(x)=2x-5 we'll have 1/f(x)=x/2+5/2

And then for g^-1, we'll have 1/g(x)=\sqrt{x-3}  \sqrt{x-3}

Hope I helped :)

Find the coordinates of the centroid of triangle RST. SHOW YOUR WORK so I can see if the answer makes sense (no links)
zimovet [89]

Note the coordinates of each point: R(-4, 5), S(5, 1), T(2, -3).

The centroid is the point whose coordinates are the average of the coordinates of R, S, and T.

<em>x</em>-coordinate: (-4 + 5 + 2)/3 = 3/3 = 1

<em>y</em>-coordinate: (5 + 1 - 3)/3 = 3/3 = 1

So the centroid is (1, 1).
