Caden exercises daily by walking on a treadmill. He sets the machine so that he will walk at a steady rate of 3.6 miles per hour

.
A. If t represents time in hours and d represents distance in miles write an equation that models the relationship between these variables

B. Use your equation to calculate the distance Caden will walk in 3 of an hour .

C. Use your equation to calculate how long it will take for Caden to walk 4.32 miles

(i have to write sumn for this part)

Answer:

a) d = 3.6t

b) 10.8 miles

c) 1.2 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

For part a:

Slope of a line: y = mx + b

In this case, the equation would be: d = mt,

where m represents the speed Caden is walking at.

Note: b = 0 in this case because when Caden starts walking on the treadmill, he hasn't really covered any distance yet.

Therefore, plugging in a speed of 3.6 miles per hour, the equation is:

d = 3.6t

For part b:

This is a simple instance of plugging in 3 hours for our t value.

Therefore, d = 3.6 (3)

d = 10.8 miles

For part c:

In this case, we are given that d = 4.32 miles.

Therefore, 4.32 = 3.6t

Dividing both sides by 3.6, we get

t = 1.2 hours

What's 17 out of 20 as a decimal

maw [93]

Let's convert this fraction to an equal fraction which holds a denominator of 100, since it is a power of 10.

Since the denominator can be multiplied by 5 to achieve 100, we can multiply the entire fraction by 5 to create an equivalent fraction that has a denominator of 100:
17/20 = (17*5)/(20*5) = 85/100

To obtain a decimal from this fraction, take the numerator and move its decimal one place to the left for every 0 in the denominator. Since our denominator has two zeros, we will need to move the decimal place on the 85 two places to the left.

This gives us an answer of .85, which can also be expressed as 0.85.

Let $f(x) = 2x^2 + 3x - 9,$ $g(x) = 5x + 11,$ and $h(x) = -3x^2 + 1.$ Find $f(x) - g(x) + h(x).$

Viefleur [7K]

QUESTION 1

Given that:

$f(x)=2x^2+3x-9$ ,

$g(x)=5x+11$ ,

and

$h(x)=-3x^2+1$

Then;

$f(x)-g(x)+h(x)=2x^2+3x-9-(5x+11)+(-3x^2+1)$

$f(x)-g(x)+h(x)=2x^2+3x-9-5x-11-3x^2+1$

Group similar terms;

$f(x)-g(x)+h(x)=2x^2-3x^2+3x-5x-11-9+1$

Simplify;

$f(x)-g(x)+h(x)=-x^2-2x-19$

QUESTION 2

Given that;

$f(x)=4x-7$ .

$g(x)=(x+1)^2$

and

$s(x)=f(x)+g(x)$

Substitute the functions;

$s(x)=4x-7+(x+1)^2$

Substitute x=3

$s(3)=4(3)-7+(3+1)^2$

$s(3)=12-7+(4)^2$

$s(3)=5+16$

$s(3)=21$

QUESTION 3

Given:

$f(x)=3x+2$

$g(x)=x^2-5x-1$

$f(g(x))=f(x^2-5x-1)$

This implies that;

$f(g(x))=3(x^2-5x-1)+2$

Expand the parenthesis;

$f(g(x))=3x^2-15x-3+2$

$f(g(x))=3x^2-15x-1$

QUESTION 4

The given function is;

$f(x)=3(x-6)^2+1$

Let

$y=3(x-6)^2+1$

$\Rightarrow y-1=3(x-6)^2$

$\Rightarrow \frac{y-1}{3}=(x-6)^2$

$\Rightarrow \sqrt{\frac{y-1}{3}}=x-6$

$\Rightarrow x=6+\sqrt{\frac{y-1}{3}}$

The range is:

$\frac{y-1}{3}\ge0$

$y-1\ge0$

$y\ge1$

The interval notation is;

$[1,+\infty)$

If you run for 4 hours at 8 miles an hour and walk 8 hours at 2 miles an hour, how far will you have gone at the end

Darya [45]

Answer:

4 hours at 8 miles an hour: 8(4) = 32 miles in total

8 hours at 2 miles an hour: 2(8) = 16 miles in total

Miles in total: 32 + 16 = 48

The answer is A. 48 miles

Question 3 ⇒ 6.5 x $10^{7}$

If you move the decimal point in 6.5 seven spaces to the right you would get the number 65,000,000.

Question 4 ⇒ 3.99 x $10^{-6}$

4.4 x $10^{-5}$ = 0.000044

3.99 x $10^{6}$ = 0.00000399

2.6 x $10^{2}$ = 260

1.85 x $10^{3}$ = 1850

Question 5 ⇒ 0.0072

If you move the decimal point of 7.2 three spaces to the left. Your answer would be 0.0072, the third choice.

Question 6 ⇒ $10^{6}$

To get the answer to this problem you would count how many decimal places it would take to get your decimal point after 1, which would be 7. But, you want your exponent to be to the power of 10 not 1, so you would simply subtract 1 from 7 (7-1) which would give you 6. So your answer is $10^{6}$ .
