The problem statement gives you the relationship between their speeds, and it gives you information you can use to find their total speed. You solve this by finding the total speed, then the proportion of that belonging to Bill.
The total speed is (120 mi)/(3 h) = 40 mi/h.
The speed ratio is ...
... Bill : Joe = 3 : 1
so the speed ratio Bill : Total is ...
... 3 : (3+1) = 3:4.
Bill's speed is (3/4)×(40 mi/h) = 30 mi/h.

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
<em>Perimeter of triangle = sum of all sides</em>
Side 1: 14 - 2x
Side 2: 3x - 1
Side 3: 2x + 1
<em>Perimeter= side 1 + side 2 + side 3</em>
26 = 14 - 2x + 3x - 1 + 2x + 1
26 = 14 - 1 + 1 - 2x + 3x + 2x
26 = 14 + 3x
3x = 12
x = 12/3
x = 4
!!
If f(x) = 2x^2 + 1 and g(x) = 3x - 2, what is the value of f(g(-2))?
1) -127
2) -23
3) 25
4) 129
the answer is d
