Answer:

  D.  Henry's started farther, went faster

Step-by-step explanation:

Henry's balloon traveled 18 additional miles (from 30 to 48) in 2 hours, so had a speed of 18mi/(2h) = 9 mi/h. The equation for his position could be ...

  y = 9x +30 . . . . . 9 is the rate of change; 30 is the initial value

__

Comparing this to Tasha's position function, we see her balloon started 20 miles from town and traveled 8 miles per hour.

__

Henry started farther from town and traveled faster.

Question 6
Aleksandr-060686 [28]

Answer:

33 children

62 adults

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up 2 equations (a=adults c=children)

The first equation will be 3.25(a)+3 = 300.5

The second equation will be a + c = 95

Subtract c from both sides to get:

a = 95 - c

Replace c in the 1st equation to get:

3.25(95-c) + 3c = 300.5

Distribute 3.25 to 95 and -c:

308.75 - 3.25c + 3c = 300.5

Subtract 308.75 from both sides:

-3.25c + 3c = 300.5 - 308.75

Combine like terms:

-0.25c = -8.25

Divide by -0.25

children = 33

Subtract 33 from 95 to get

adults = 62

What are the domain and range of f(x) = 2|x - 4|?
exis [7]

Answer:

D : All real numbers

R : (-∞,∞)

Step-by-step explanation:

When your x is in a set of absolute value sign, any number can work for x.

As with Domain, you can do the same with range. In this case, you can go from both positive infinity and negative infinity and you will always get a real number solution.
