1 mile at 12 m/h is .2 m/min
1 mile at .2 m/min (1/.2) = 5 min So the first mile took 5 minutes
To find how fast the second mile was:
You know it was 1 mile and it took 10 minutes
1/10=.1 m/min which is 6 m/h
The average speed is 6+12/2=9 m/h

Hope that helps.  Feel free to ask any questions.

Find the inverse of the function. y = 2x2 –4
Alex73 [517]

Answer:

The inverse function is y=\sqrt{\frac{x+4}{2}}


Step-by-step explanation:

The given function is y=2x^2-4.


This function is only invertible on the interval, x\ge 0.


To find the inverse on this interval, we interchange x and y.

x=2y^2-4


We now make y the subject to get,


x+4=2y^2


\Rightarrow \frac{x+4}{2}=y^2


\Rightarrow \pm \sqrt{\frac{x+4}{2}}=y


But the given interval is x\geq 0, This implies that, y\geq 0.


y=\sqrt{\frac{x+4}{2}}

The recommended daily calcium intake for a 20-year-old is 1,000 milligrams (mg). One cup of milk contains 299 mg of calcium and
Alex787 [66]
One <u>possible inequality</u> is:

299m+261j ≥ 1000.

Explanation:

m is the number of cups of milk and j is the number of cups of juice.

Each cup of milk contains 299 mg of calcium.  This gives us 299m mg of calcium for m cups of milk drank.

Each cup of juice contains 261 mg of calcium.  This gives us 261j mg of calcium for j cups of juice drank.

Together, this would be a total of 299m+261j mg of calcium.

We want to meet or exceed 1000 mg of calcium.  This means we could have more than 1000 or equal to 1000; this gives us the inequality symbol "greater than or equal to":

299m+261j ≥ 1000

Caleb has 20 more books than Danica. If Caleb gives Danica half of his books, Danica will have 4 more books than Caleb. How many
wariber [46]

Answer:

Option E: 24.

Step-by-step explanation:

When Caleb (C) has 20 more books than Danica (D), we have:

C = 20 + D   (1)

Now, when Caleb gives Danica half of his books:

C' = C - \frac{C}{2}   (2)

Danica will have 4 more books than Caleb, so:

D' = D + \frac{C}{2}     (3)    

Also we have that:

D' = C' + 4   (4)  

By entering equation (2) and equation (3) into equation (4) we have:

D + \frac{C}{2} = C - \frac{C}{2} + 4   (5)

From (1) we have:

D = C - 20   (6)

By entering (6) into (5):

C - 20 + \frac{C}{2} = C - \frac{C}{2} + 4

C = 24

And, from (6):

D = C - 20 = 24 - 20 = 4  

Therefore, the correct option is E, Caleb had to start with 24 books.

I hope it helps you!
