Y = 300 (miles) * x (independent variable)
I hope this satisfies you.
A negative number * another negative number gives a positive value
A positive number * another positive number also gives a positive value
The solutions are -4, 4
Hope this helps :)
Answer:
- <u>They can catch up with the bus at 10:40 am.</u>
Explanation:
1. Set the time when Liana and her mother can leave (8:40 am) as t₀ = 0; thus the time of driving for them will be t.
2. The average speed at whic Liana's mother drive: 60 miles/hour
3. Thus, the distance they will have driven will be:
- distance = average speed × time = 60t
4. The time the bus left was 8:00 am, which is 40 minutes before Liana and her mom can leave.
Thus, the time wil have driven when Liana and her mom have driven t hours minutes will be: t + 40 min / 60 min/ hour = t + 2/3
5. The average speed of teh bus is 45 miles / hour
6. The distance the bus will have driven will be:
- distance = average speed × time = 45(t + 2/3)
7. When Liana and her mother catch up with the bus, the distances driven by both of them are equal:
Thus, Liana and her mom can catch up with the bus after 2 hours, since 8:40 am; this is, 10:40 am.
Answer:
w=4.9
Step-by-step explanation:
If you are solving for w, you want to isolate the variable. If it is easier to write it out, it would look something like this..
-5 x w = -24.5
To get w by itself, use the inverse of multiplication, which is division. Divide the expression to the left of the equal sign by -5. Remember, what you do to one side, you must do to the other. When you divide -24.5 by -5, you end up with
w=4.9
The total for the laptop would then be 900$
