Answer:
the cyclists rode at 35 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming that the cyclists stopped, and accelerated instantaneously at the same speed than before but in opposite direction , then
distance= speed*time
since the cyclists and the train reaches the end of the tunnel at the same time and denoting L as the length of the tunnel :
time = distance covered by cyclists / speed of cyclists = distance covered by train / speed of the train
thus denoting v as the speed of the cyclists :
7/8*L / v = L / 40 mph
v = 7/8 * 40 mph = 35 mph
v= 35 mph
thus the cyclists rode at 35 mph
Rise over Run
Put the amount you go up or down on the Y-axis over how much you go right or the x-axis
the Y-intercept is found simply by looking where the graph crosses the y, if the equation is written instead of graphed, graph it using a graphing calculator, then use the information I gave you previously : )
Answer: x = 1
x =(-3-√-15)/4=(-3-i√ 15 )/4= -0.7500-0.9682i
x =(-3+√-15)/4=(-3+i√ 15 )/4= -0.7500+0.9682i
x2 = 0
