Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define

g(x) = -x - 2

g(1) is x = 1

Step 2: Evaluate

Substitute in x: g(1) = -1 - 2
Subtract: g(1) = -3

devlian [24]

Since 1/2 is equal to a half, you divide 50 and 40 by 2 and you'll get 25 and 20 and then you subtract 25 and 20 and you get 5 which is the answer!

On rainy days, Izzy goes from his house to the school by running 1.2 miles on West St, then makes a 90º turn and runs 0.5 miles

OlgaM077 [116]

Answer:

a) It will take Izzy 0.226 hours = 13.6 minutes = 13 minutes 36 seconds to run to school on dashed days.

b) Izzy runs 1.30 miles on dry days.

c) Izzy saves 3 minutes and 12 seconds cutting through the woods.

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem can be solved by a simpe rule of three problem.

a) On rainy days, she runs 1.2 + 0.5 = 1.7 miles.

The problem states that for rainy days, she runs 7.5 miles per hour. We know that in a hour, Izzy will run 7.5 miles. We want to know how long it takes for her to run 1.7 miles. So

1 hour - 7.5 miles

x hours - 1.7 miles

7.5x = 1.7

$x = \frac{1.7}{7.5}$

x = 0.226 hours

It will take Izzy 0.226 hours = 13.6 minutes = 13 minutes 36 seconds to run to school on dashed days.

b) Now we have a right triangle, where the sides are the 1.2 miles and the 0.5miles, and the path through the woods x is the hypotenuse.

So, we apply the pythagorean theorem.

$x^{2} = (1.2)^{2} + (0.5)^{2}$

$x^{2} = 1.44 + 0.25$

$x^{2} = 1.69$

$x = 1.30$

So, Izzy runs 1.30 miles on dry days.

c) The first step for this question is knowing how long it takes for Izzy to run 1.30 miles at 7.50 miles a hour. So:

1 hour - 7.50 miles

x hours = 1.30 miles

7.50x = 1.30

$x = \frac{1.3}{7.5}$

x = 0.173 hours

So, it takes Izzy 0.173 hours = 10.4 minutes = 10 minutes 24 seconds to run through the woods.

13' 36''

-10' 24''

3' 12''

Izzy saves 3 minutes and 12 seconds cutting through the woods.

Step 3: 2x > 10 Step 4: x > 5 What property justifies the work between step 3 and step 4? A. division property of inequali

BigorU [14]

Answer:

A. Division property of inequality.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let be $2\cdot x > 10$ , we proceed to show the appropriate procedure to step 4:

1) $2\cdot x >10$ Given

2) $x > 5$ Compatibility with multiplication/Existence of multiplicative inverse/Associative property/Modulative property/Result. (Division property of inequality)
