Explain how the number line can

Mathematics

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  points closest to zero will give the least change; those farthest away will give the greatest change. Listing the points in order by distance from 0 will put them in order by amount of change.

Step-by-step explanation:

The amount of change is the absolute value of the number on the number line. That value is the (positive) distance from 0. The numbers will most easily be compared if they are all put on one side of zero. For example, -1.75 and 1.75 are the same distance from zero, as are -3.25 and 3.25.

Listing the points in order by distance from 0 will put them in order by amount of change. In order, least change to greatest change, the numbers are ...

  -1.75, 2.50, -3.25, -3.50, 4.75

Barbara drives between Miami, Florida, and West Palm Beach, Florida. She drives 50 mi in clear weather and then encounters a thu
cluponka [151]

Answer:

<em>Her speed driving in nice weather is 50 mph and in thunderstorm is 32 mph.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Barbara drives 50 miles in clear weather and then encounters a thunderstorm for the last 16 miles.

Suppose, her speed in nice weather is  x mph.

As she drives 18 mph slower through the thunderstorm than she does in clear weather, so her speed in thunderstorm will be: (x-18) mph

<u>We know that,</u>  Time = \frac{Distance}{Speed}

So, <u>the time of driving in clear weather</u> =\frac{50}{x} hours

and <u>the time of driving in thunderstorm</u> =\frac{16}{x-18} hours.

Given that, <u>the total time for the trip is 1.5 hours</u>. So, the equation will be......

\frac{50}{x}+ \frac{16}{x-18}=1.5 \\ \\ \frac{50x-900+16x}{x(x-18)}=1.5\\ \\ \frac{66x-900}{x(x-18)}=1.5 \\ \\ 1.5x(x-18)=66x-900\\ \\ 1.5x^2-27x=66x-900\\ \\ 1.5x^2-93x+900=0\\ \\ 1.5(x^2 -62x+600)=0\\ \\ x^2 -62x+600=0\\ \\ (x-50)(x-12)=0

Using zero-product property.........

x-50=0\\ x=50\\ \\ and\\ \\ x-12=0\\ x=12

<em>We need to ignore x=12 here, otherwise the speed in thunderstorm will become negative.</em>

So, her speed driving in nice weather is 50 mph and her speed driving in thunderstorm is (50-18) = 32 mph

What is the solutuon to the eqation 1/2x+3=2/3x+1
pishuonlain [190]

Answer:

x =12

Step-by-step explanation:

1/2x + 3 = 2/3x + 1

1/2 = 3/6 ; 2/3 = 4/6

3 - 1 = 4/6x - 3/6x

2 = 1/6x

x = 12
