The inequality gives the total expected journey from the road trip, such that the time during which Sherrod and Kamar drives is known.

  • a. The inequality that represents the miles that Sherrod and Kamar drives is; <u>x + y ≤ 900</u>
  • b. Two possible combination of <em>x</em> and <em>y</em> are; <u>(600, 300) and (300, 600)</u>

Reasons:

a. The distance distance Sherrod and Kamar plan to drive ≤ 900 miles

Sherrod's speed = 60 mph

Kamar's speed = 50 mph

The distance Sherrod drives = x

The distance Kamar drives = y

a. The miles driven by Sherrod and Kamar is given by the inequality;

  • <u>x + y ≤ 900</u>

b. Two possible combinations are;

First possible combination;

Sherrod drives for 10 hours, which gives;

Distance Sherrod drives = 60 mph × 10 hour = 600 miles

Kamar drives for 900 miles - 600 miles = 300 miles

Which gives;

Sherrod drives for 600 miles and Kamar drives for 300 miles

  • <u>First combination; (600, 300)</u>

Second possible combination;

The second possible combination is Sherrod drives for 300 miles and Kamar drives for 600 miles

  • <u>Second combination; (300, 600)</u>

What is the answer to 3/7w-11=4/7w
sladkih [1.3K]
For this equation first you should add +11 on both sides and the add -4/7w so you will have: 
3/7w- 4/7w = 11 ⇒ -1/7w = 11 ⇒ w = 11* -7 = -77 so the answer is:
w = -77 :)))

I need help answering this question
Advocard [28]

Answer:

x = 17

Step-by-step explanation:

Since line m is parallel to line n, therefore:

(6x + 5) + (5x - 12) = 180 (consecutive interior angles are supplementary)

Solve for x

6x + 5 + 5x - 12 = 180

Add like terms

11x - 7 = 180

Add 7 to both sides

11x - 7 + 7 = 180 + 7

11x = 187

Divide both sides by 11

\frac{11x}{11} = \frac{187}{11}

x = 17

How many times do you need to divide by ten to get from <br> 940.0 to 9.400
Gnesinka [82]
Twice. Dividing by ten will move the decimal point one place to the left. Rather than dividing by ten twice, you can divide by 100 once.

Which statements are true about the graph of the function f(x) = 6x – 4 + x2?
kaheart [24]
Write the function as
f(x) = x² + 6x - 4

Note that
x² + 6x = (x + 3)² - 9

Therefore
f(x) = (x  3)² - 9 - 4
      = (x + 3)² - 13

The vertex is at (-3, -13)., and the curve opens upward.
The axis of symmetry is x = -3.

Answer:
The vertex of the function is (-3, 13).
The graph increases over the interval (-3, -∞)
