Bob is hiking down a 12-mile country trail. He could hike at 3 mph for the first two hours and then go the rest of the way at 5 mph or he could just go the whole way at 4 mph. How long would each of these options take? Which option is the faster?
The first option would take:
The second option would take:
The faster option is the:

The first option would take: 3.2 hr

The second option would take: 3 hr

The faster option is the: second

Step-by-step explanation:

Below in bold.

Step-by-step explanation:

Speed = distance / time.

First option:

Walking  at 3mph for 2 hours will give 2*3 = 6 miles.

So for 6 miles travelling at 5 mph he will take 6/5 = 1.2 hours.

Total time = 3.2 hours.

Second option:

Walking for 12 miles at 4 mph will take him 12/4 = 3 hours.

The fastest option is the second one.

step-by-step explanation:

from the graph attached below:

domain of graph is the value of x for which the given function profit function p(x) is defined.

(a) the domain represents the number of years for which the outlet will earn a profit.

range of profit function defines the lowest to highest value of profit earned.

(b) the range of this function is (0 , 160 ). for this function, the range represents the outlet's profit earned.

(0,,,0)

step-by-step explanation:

the table of x and y values is shown in the attached pic(part of question)

we have to decide according that graph

given points are (0, 0) (–1, 0), (2, 0)

when we graph these points on graph they show an increasing line as shown in the attached pic
