Answer:

  a. 0.6 h

  b. 1.3 h

  c.  C -- No

  d. 4.2 mi/h

Step-by-step explanation:

a. The relationship between time (t), speed (s), and distance (d) is ...

  t = d/s

The time spent running 4 miles at 7 miles per hour is ...

  t = (4 mi)/(7 mi/h) = (4/7) h ≈ 0.6 h

__

b. The time spent walking home is ...

  t = (4 mi)/(3 mi/h) = 4/3 h ≈ 1.3 h

__

c.  C -- No, less time is spent at 7 mi/h

__

d. The average speed is ...

   s = d/t = (4 mi +4 mi)/(4/7 h +4/3 h) = (8 mi)/(40/21 h) = 4.2 mi/h

The equation y=x^2-12x+45 models the number of books y sold in a bookstore x days after an award-winning author appeared at an a
romanna [79]
Answer: The first day the author reaches 100 days is on day 16.

To solve this problem, you could use a graphing calculator to graph the given equation. Then, determine when this line crosses 100. It crosses when x = 15.539. Therefore, we would have to round up to 16 so it is at least 100.

You could use the quadratic equation to solve: 100 = x^2 -12x + 45

Either you will get 16. If you use the quadratic formula, make sure to only use the positive answer.

If f(x) = 2x + 3, what is f(–1)?
Helen [10]

Answer:

Normally, sequences don't go behind 1, but let's see for this one.

f(-1) = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's sub for -1 in x.

f(-1) = 2(-1) + 3.

f(-1) = -2 + 3

f(-1) = 1

A small airplane can fly 12 miles in 3 minutes. At this rate, how far can it fly in 7 minutes? In an hour?
Kay [80]

Answer:

28 miles in 7 minutes, 240 miles in an hour

Step-by-step explanation:

We can first simplify the rate to miles per minute. Since the plane goes 12 miles in 3 minutes, we can divide it by 3 to find how much it travels in one minute. 12 divided by 3 is 4 and 3 divided by 3 is 1

The plane travels 4 miles a minute

To find how much it travels in 7 minutes, multiply by 7

4x7 is 28

28 miles in 7 minutes

To find an hour, multiply by 60

4x60= 240

240 miles in an hour
