The distance from city A to city B is approximately 2070 miles. A plane flying directly to city B passes over city A at noon. If

the plane travels at 400 ​mph, find the rule of the function​ f(t) that gives the distance of the plane from city B at time t hours​ (with tequals0 corresponding to​ noon).

Answer:

f(t) = -400t+2070

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the information of the problem the plane is traveling at a constant velocity therefore the function that models that gives the distance of the plane from city B at time t hours would be linear. Something like this.

f(t) = mt+b

The velocity is the slope of the line and if you take B as your reference you would be going backwards therefore we would say that   m = -400 . And as I mentioned before if you take B  as your reference your starting point would be 2070 miles away, therefore the function would be

f(t) = -400t+2070

Compare and Contrast: Below are two equations. Solve each equation and compare the two solutions. Choose the statement that is t
grin007 [14]
Equation #1:
|2x - 3| = 17
The first solution is
2x - 3 = 17
2x = 17 + 3 = 20
x = 10
The second solution is
3 - 2x = 17
-2x = 17 - 3 = 14
x = -7
The solutions are x = 10 or x = -7.

Equation #2:
|5x + 3| = 12
The only solution is
5x + 3 = 12
5x = 12 - 3 = 9
x = 9/5

Let us examine the given answers.
a. Equation #1 and #2 have the same number of solutions.
    FALSE
b. Equation @1 has more solutions than Equation #2.
    TRUE
c. Equation #1 has fewer solutions than equation #2.
    FALSE
d. None of the statements a,b, or c apply.
    FALSE

Answer: b.
