Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A car traveled at a constant speed as shown in the graph.

Distance traveled is on the y-axis and duration of travel on the x-axis.

Point A(3.5, 210) shows,

Distance traveled = 210 miles

Time to travel = 3.5 hours

So the point (3.5, 210) shows the distance traveled by the car in 3.5 hours is 210 miles.

Slope of the line = speed of the car = $\frac{\text{Distance traveled}}{\text{Time}}$

= $\frac{210}{3.5}$

= 60 mph

Now we will find the speed of the car at another point B(1, 60).

If the speed of car is same as the point B as of point A, point B will lie on the graph.

Speed of the car at B(1, 60) = $\frac{\text{Distance traveled}}{\text{Time}}$

= $\frac{60}{1}$

= 60 mph

Hence, we can say that point B(1, 60) lies on the graph.

To buy a computer, Raquel borrowed $3,000 at 9%

kumpel [21]

Answer:

$4080

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the amount she will pay back, but first, we need to find the Interest accrued.

Simple Interest is given as:

$I = \frac{P * R * T }{100}$

where P = principal

R = rate

T = time taken (in years)

Therefore, the interest on $3,000 at 9% simple interest for 4 years is:

$I = \frac{3000 * 9 * 4}{100}$

I = $1080

Therefore, the amount she will pay back is:

$3000 + $1080 = $4080

Roger and rita each drive at a constant speed between phoenix and san diego. Each driver’s distance for the same section of the

never [62]

Answer:

a)Rita had a 28-mile head start

Step-by-step explanation:

The multiple options have been added in the additional information below the problem statement.

Missing Information:

Since the distance of each driver is not displayed. Let us assume their distances.

Say,

Roger travelled distance = 60 miles

Rita travelled distance = 32 miles

Now as it is given in the problem statement that Roger and Rita both drove at a constant speed between Phoenix and San Diego and they drove "Same Section of the trip" .

Which Means that the distance travelled of both is between Phoenix and San Diego, just their starting points are different but their end point is the same which is San Diego.

As we can see RIta had to cover less miles which means she got the head start, now to calculate how much of a head start she got, we need:

Head Start Rita got = Distance Roger travelled - Distance Rita Travelled

Head Start Rita got = 60 - 32 = 28 miles

So,

Rita got a Head start of 28 miles which is option (a)

Robin was just hired at Groceries & More as a cashier. She is paid $9 an hour. She works 30 hours a week and is going to sav

Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

5 weeks

Step-by-step explanation:

$ 9 an hr for 30 hrs.....(9 * 30) = $270

they deduct $ 27 from her weekly check

so she clears (270 - 27) = $ 243 per week

she wants to get to $ 1200...

1200 / 243 = 4.94 weeks......we are gonna have to round up to 5 weeks because 4 weeks is just a little short.

In the figure, the slope of mid-segment DE is -0.4. The slope of segment AC is . i need help fast plz

AlexFokin [52]

It will have the same value. The slope of the mid-segment of DE is just equal to the slope of the segment of AC. This is because of the mid-segment theorem stating that both slopes of a triangle have same value. So the answer is -0.4 for both segments.
