Jonathan forgot his math homework on the kitchen table and left for school without it. He biked at the speed of 15 mph. His mother saw the homework when he was already 1 mile from home, and started chasing him. She drove at a speed of 25 mph and caught him at the school entrance. How far is the school from Jonathan's home?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

2.5 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the distance be x

Then Jonathan biked for

x/15 hours

His mother drew for

x/25 hours

The time difference is

1/15 hours

So we have

x/15 - 1/15 = x/25(x - 1)/15 = x/2515x = 25x - 2525x - 15x = 2510x = 25x = 25/10x = 2.5 miles

Geraldine is asked to explain the limits on the range of an exponential equation using the function f(x) = 2x. She makes these two statements: 1. As x increases infinitely, the y-values are continually doubled for each single increase in x. 2. As x decreases infinitely, the y-values are continually halved for each single decrease in x. She concludes that there are no limits within the set of real numbers on the range of this exponential function. Which best explains the accuracy of Geraldine's statements and her conclusion?

Answers

Answer:

"as x increases infinitely, the y-values are continually doubled for each single increase in x".

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the exponential equation f(x) = 2x of which Geraldine is asked to explain the limits on the range, the expression that best explains the accuracy of Geraldine's statements and her conclusion is that "as x increases infinitely, the y-values are continually doubled for each single increase in x".

for example let y = f(x) so thet y = 2x

for every va;ues of x, y will be doubled as shown;

If x = 1

y = 2(1) = 2

If x = 2

y = 2(2) = 4

If x = 3

y = 2(3) = 6

I can be seen that the value of y doubles for all values of x hence making her first statement accurate.

The second statement 'As x decreases infinitely, the y-values are continually halved for each single decrease in x'. is not totally right because the y values may not be halved for some values of x as x increases.

Her conclusion is not also right because there are  limits within the set of real numbers on the range of this exponential function. for every value of x, y will always tend to a real value.

The scale on a map reads 2 inches = 5 miles. What is the actual distance
between two cities on the map that are 6.5 inches apart?*
O A. 2.6 miles
B. 13 miles
O C.32.5 miles
D. 16.25 miles

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

2 inches = 5 miles.

So if you divide both sides by 2,

1 inch = 2.5 miles

To find how many miles 6.5inches is equal to, multiply 2.5 by 6.5

6.5 inches = 2.5 x 6.5 = 16.25 miles

Answers

Answer:

x=45

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that 2y+6 and 8y-102 are vertical angles to each other. This means that 2y+6=8y-102. [tex]6y=108[/tex], which means that y=18. [tex]2\cdot(18)+6=36+6=42[/tex]. Since one line is a straight angle, it is 180 degrees we can do [tex]3x=180-45=135[/tex], so x=45.

Answer:

y = 18

x = 46

measures of the angles:

8y - 102 = 42

2y + 6 = 42

3x = 138

Step-by-step explanation:

So first remember the verticle angles theorem, which states that, when two lines intersect there will be four angles formed; the angles that are opposite from each other will be congruent, that is,  they will have the same measure.

Using this we know that opposite angles have to be congruent:

so

(2y + 6) = (8y -102)

now there is an algebra equation that can be solved by inverse operations and simplifying

2y + 6 = 8y - 102

    +102      +102

2y + 108 = 8y

-2y             -2y

108 = 6y

/6        /6

18 = y

Also, remember that two adjacent angles that form a line will add up to 180,

so

3x + (2y + 6) = 180

*note: I could have also used (8y - 102) but I choose to use (2y + 6)

so now substitute in the value of y that was found

y = 18

3x + (2 * 18 + 6) = 180

simplify

3x + ( 36 + 6) = 180

3x + 42 = 180

now use inverse operations

3x + 42 = 180

     -42     -42

3x = 138

/3      /3

x = 46
