Christine is typing at a rate of 75 words per minute. Paula is typing at twice Christine's
speed. If together they need to transcribe a 2000
word paper which of the following expressions
would illustrate the time in minutes, x, it would
take for them to do so.
A) 150
2000X
75
150
B)
+
= 2000
C) 150 + 75 =
2000
2000
D) x =
(150+75)

X = 2000 / (75 + 150)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Christine's typing rate = 75 words per minute

Paula's speed = 2 times Christine's speed

If 2000 words needs to be transcribed. The time taken in minute 'x' will be :

From the relation :

Time = distance / speed

Distance here is the number of words in the document

Christine's speed = 75 words per minute

Paula's speed = 150 words per minute

Combined speed per minute = 150 + 75 = 225 words per minute

Time taken (x) = 2000 / 225

X = 2000 / (75 + 150)

(- 1, 0 )

step-by-step explanation:

an x- intercept is where the function crosses the x- axis.

to find the x- intercept/s look for the value of x when f(x) = 0

from the given table there are 3 values of x where f(x) = 0

when x = - 1, x = 2, x = 3

the one that is listed is (- 1, 0 )
