On the second day of a hiking trip the tourist covered a 17% bigger distance than on the first day . By how many percent of their average speed change from the first to the second day if on the second day they were hiking for a 20% longer time

2.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

x=distance   y=time

x has been increased by 17%

100%+17% = 117%

y has been increased by 20%

100%+20%=120%

Now let's make the percentages into decimals. 117%=1.17 120%=1.2

To find the average speed you do the distance traveled divided by the time taken.

Average speed = 2.5%

2.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

T=time S=speed D=distance

T .  x .  S= .  D

1          100 .  100

1.2 .      97 .    117

117÷1.2=2.5

Answer is 2.5%

I do RSM so i know it is correct.

for this pair of functions g(x)=x-2 and f(x)=|x| is (g o f)(a)= |a| -2

step-by-step explanation:

g(x)=x-2

f(x)=|x|

(g o f)(a)=?

(g o f)(x)=g(f(x))

(g o f)(x)=g(|x|)

(g o f)(x)=|x|-2

(g o f)(a)=|a|-2

b
