Answer:
you must add 2 to the equation
Step-by-step explanation:
Let p and m represent the numbers of miles in the plains and mountains, respectively.
.. p + m = 300 . . . . . . . the whole trip was 300 miles
time = distance/speed, so the trip time can be written as
.. p/90 + m/37.5 = 3 48/60
.. 5p + 12m = 1710 . . . . . . . . . . multiply by 450 to put in standard form
You can solve these two equations by any of several means. The variable p can be eliminated by subtracting 5 times the first from the second.
.. (5p +12m) -5(p +m) = 1710 -5*300
.. 7m = 210
.. m = 30
30 miles of the trip was through the mountains.
It's along the number line
Factor the demoniator:-
x^2 -2x - 24 = (x - 6)(x + 4)
the asymptotes occurs when denominator = 0
so here they are the vertical lines x = 6 and x = -4
Answer:
-1
Step-by-step explanation:
2x² - 5x + 7 is subtracted <em>from </em>x² + 2x - 11, so
(x² + 2x - 11) - (2x² - 5x + 7)
x² + 2x - 11 - 2x² + 5x -7 (Distribute the negative)
-x² + 7x - 18 (Combine like terms)
The leading coefficient is the coefficient of the first term, so it is -1.
