Find how long it takes a person to drive 94 miles on a highway if she merged into a highway at 1pm and drives nonstop with her cruise control set on 40mph

2.35 hrs

If she merged the highway at 1 pm, then she'll leave the highway by 3:21 pm

Step-by-step explanation:

distance traveled = 94 miles

cruise speed = 40 mph

time taken = ?

time taken = distance/speed = 94/40 = 2.35 hours

2.35 hrs = 2 hrs + (0.35 x 60) = 2 hrs + 21 min

If she merged the highway at 1 pm, then she'll leave the highway by 3:21 pm

the distance from any point on the parabola to the focus is the exact same as the distance from that point to the directrix.

if you could provide answer choices that might allow me to answer the question easier if my above answer isn't an option! (:

(0,-3) see attached graph

step-by-step explanation:

a. to solve the system, graph the two equations.

x = y+3 becomes y=x-3 has m=1/1 and b=-3. start at (0,-3) on the y-axis and plot a point. then move up 1 unit and 1 unit to the right. plot a point and connect.

y=-4x+3 has m =-4/1 and b=-3. start at (0,-3) on the y-axis and plot a point. then move down four units and to the right 1 unit. plot a point and connect.

the solution is the point (x,y) where the two lines intersect. by the graph below it is (0,-3).

b. to solve by substitution, substitute y = -4x-3 into x= y+3

x= (-4x-3) +3

x=-4x

5x=0

x=0

now substitute x = 0 back in to find y.

y= -4(0)-3

y=0-3

y=-3

solution is (0,-3)

c. use elimination by adding the equations together.

x-y=3

4x+y=-3

5x=0

x=0

then substitute into one equation to find y.

y=-4(0)-3

y=-3
