Two trains left the station traveling in opposite directions. The distance Train A traveled is modeled by the function d(t)=81t
stira [4]

Answer:

Option A -  The distance Train A traveled in 1 h is equal to the distance Train B traveled in 1 h.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The distance Train A traveled is modeled by the function d(t)=81t

where d represents distance in miles and t represents time in hours.

To find : How does the distance Train A traveled in 1 hour compare to the distance Train B traveled in 1 hour?

Solution :

Distance traveled by Train A in 1 hour is

d(t)=81t

d(t)=81(1)=81

Distance traveled by Train B in 1 hour is

d(t)=81t

d(t)=81(1)=81

or for B, we have 324 miles in 4 hours. If that is at a constant speed, it travels 324/4 = 81 miles in one hour

Therefore, The distance Train A traveled in 1 h is equal to the distance Train B traveled in 1 h.

Hence, Option A is correct.

IGIVEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE BRAINLILSTTT
Temka [501]

Answer:

first box (x): 10

second box (y): 12

Step-by-step explanation:

HIJ is a translation of HIJ

translation just means you move the whole thing without any rotations dialations ect just moving it

from the blue shape it is asking what do you have to do to the x and y to get to the purple shape

you have to go +_x and take away _y

when you add a digit to x it moves to the right

when you add a digit to y it goes one up

because the HIJ are equaly spaced it dosnt matter which one we choose cause it will have the same answer

im going to use J

on the blue J you can see the x value is -8

the purple J's value is 5

to get from -5 to 5 you add 10

-5+5=0

0+5=5

5+5=10

therefore the first box (x) is 10

same thing for the y value im going to use J again

blue y value of J is 7

purple y value of J is -5

their distance is 12

7-7=0

0-5=-5

7+5=12

second box (y) is 12

i hope this helps
