Marcel leaves 30 minutes after Carolyn, leaving between them a gap of 40mph*0.5h=20miles
To catch up with the 20miles, Marcel uses the extra (65-40=25)mph that he has.
Therefore 20m/25mph=0.8h=0.8*60min=48minutes after 2:45, which is at 3:33, Marcel catches up to Carolyn.

If f (x)=8-5x, find the value of f(2-k)

Helen [10]

Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:

f(2-k) = -2 + 5k

Discussion:

If f(x) = 8 - 5x , then

f(2-k) = 8 - 5(2-k) =>

f(2-k) = 8 - 10 + 5k =>

f(2-k) = -2 + 5k
