Answer:
Write a time equation, time = dist/speed
:
go time + return time = total time
d%2F16 + d%2F15 = 7.75 hrs
multiply equation by the least common multiple 240, cncel the denominators:
15d + 16d = 240(7.75)
31d = 1860
d = 1860/31
d = 60 km one way
total dist = 120 km
:
Check this, find the actual time each way
60/16 = 3.75 hrs
60/15 = 4 hrs
-----------------
total time 7.75 hrs
Step-by-step explanation:
It is A. 0.05 represents one of his candies, and x represents how many of those, 0.10 represents the other candy while y represents how many of those candies. 1.00 is the total it should come to.
Answer:
f(x) = 4x^2 + 2x - 4.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the quadratic function be y = f(x) = ax^2 + bx + c.
For the point (-2, 8) ( x = -2 when y = 8) we have:
a(-2)^2 + (-2)b + c = 8
4a - 2b + c = 8 For (0, -4) we have:
0 + 0 + c = -4 so c = -4. For (4, 68) we have:
16a + 4b + c = 68
So we have 2 systems of equations in a and b ( plugging in c = -4):
4a - 2b - 4 = 8
16a + 4b - 4 = 68
4a - 2b = 12
16a + 4b = 72 Multiplying 4a - 2b = 12 by 2 we get:
8a - 4b = 24
Adding the last 2 equations:
24a = 96
a = 4
Now plugging a = 4 and c = -4 in the first equation:
4(4) - 2b - 4 = 8
-2b = 8 - 16 + 4 = -4
b = 2.
