If it takes 8 hours for a bus with an average velocity of 65mph to travel from Amarillo to Austin then,
d = 65 (8) = 520 miles

The distance from Amarillo to Austin (or vice versa) is 520 miles.

If the function to get the distance traveled by the automobile is given by:
d(x) = 80 t
Then, the inverse variation relationship would be
d-1(x) = t = d / 80
Since d = 520
t = 520 / 80
t = 6.5 hours

It takes 6.5 hours for the automobile to complete the trip

On a vacation in Puerto Rico, Rose jumped off a cliff into a river in EL Yunque Forest Reserve. Her height as a function of time
balandron [24]
H (t) = - 16t ^ 2 + 16t + 480
 For this case, the first thing to do is to match the polynomial to zero to find the roots.
 We have then:
 0 = -16t ^ 2 + 16t + 480
 From here, we obtain the following roots of the polynomial:
 t1 = -5
 t2 = 6
 We ignore the negative root because the time is always greater than zero.
 Answer: 
 it takes Rose to hit the water about 
 t = 6 seconds

F(x, y) = x2 + y2 + 4x − 4y, x2 + y2 ≤ 81 find the extreme values of f on the region described by the inequality.
Whitepunk [10]
Take partial derivatives and set them equal to 0:

\nabla F(x,y)=\langle2x+4,2y-4\rangle=\mathbf 0

We find one critical point within the boundary of the disk at (x,y)=(-2,2). The Hessian matrix for this function is

\mathbf H(x,y)=\begin{bmatrix}f_{xx}&f_{xy}\\f_{yx}&f_{yy}\end{bmatrix}=\begin{bmatrix}2&0\\0&2\end{bmatrix}

which is positive definite, and incidentally independent of x and y, so F(x,y) attains a minimum F(-2,2)=-8.

Meanwhile, we can parameterize the boundary by \mathbf r(t)=\langle9\cos t,9\sin t\rangle with 0\le t\le2\pi, which gives

F(x,y)=F(x(t),y(t))=f(t)=81\cos^2t+81\sin^2t+36\cos t-36\sin t=81+36(\cos t-\sin t)

with critical points at

f'(t)=0\implies 36(-\sin t-\cos t)=0\implies\sin t+\cos t=0\implies t=\dfrac{3\pi}4,\dfrac{7\pi}4

At these points, we get

f\left(\dfrac{3\pi}4\right)=81-36\sqrt2\approx30.0883
f\left(\dfrac{7\pi}4\right)=81+36\sqrt2\approx131.9117

so we attain a maximum only when t=\dfrac{7\pi}4, which translates to (x,y)=\left(\dfrac9{\sqrt2},-\dfrac9{\sqrt2}\right).

Which of the following includes a coefficient?
Mumz [18]

A 3x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

3x+2 is a polynomial.

If the variable in a  term of polynomial is multiplied by a number, then this number is called the "coefficient"

It contains a first degree term as highest degree term and one constant term.

coefficient=3

constant=2

variable=x(first degree term)
