Answer:

Let x = the hours needed for Wanda to catch up to Hector.

Hector has already completed 18 miles. Hector travels at 12 miles per hour.

After x more hours, Hector will travel

18 + 12x miles

Wanda travels at 16 miles per hour. In x hours, she travels

16x miles

If Wanda catches up to Hector, then

16x = 18 + 12x

4x = 18

x = 4.5 hours

Answer:  4 hours, 30 minutes (or 4.5 hours)

Hello!


The graph, (2/5)^x is an exponential function.


Since there is not a negative symbol in the front of the function, options A and B are incorrect.


For option 3 to be correct, there would need to be a negative symbol in front of the exponent, x.


So therefore, the answer option 4. (Also, I'll post a graph. :))

Suppose that 10 sophomores, 3 juniors, and 10 seniors are candidates for a prestigious mathematics award of which three will be
faltersainse [42]

Answer:

1771 possible ways

Step-by-step explanation:

In this case, we need to know first how many candidates are in total:

10 + 3 + 10 = 23 candidates in total.

Now, we need to choose 3 of them to receive an award. In this case, we have several scenarios, but as it's an award we can also assume that the order in which the candidates are chosen do not matter, so, the formula to use is the following:

C = m! / n! (m - n)!

Where m is the total candidates and n, is the number of candidates to be chosen. Replacing this data we have:

C = 23! / 3! (23 - 3)!

C = 2.59x10^22 / 6(2.43x10^18)

C = 1771

So we have 1771 ways of choose the candidates.
