The distance away from the city of Bloomsfield is a function of time. The function D(h)=440−65h
represents the distance in miles away from Bloomsfield as you travel toward the city, based on the number of hours, h , you have traveled. Find the distance left to get to Bloomsfield after 312
hours of traveling. Enter your response in decimal form.(1 point)
The distance that you have left to travel is
miles.
To find the distance left to get to Bloomsfield after 312 hours of traveling, we can substitute h = 312 into the function D(h) = 440 - 65h:
D(h) = 440 - 65(312)
D(h) = 440 - 20,280
D(h) = -19,840
Therefore, the distance left to get to Bloomsfield after 312 hours of traveling is -19,840 miles.
thats wrong
I apologize for the error. To find the distance left to get to Bloomsfield after 312 hours of traveling, we can substitute h = 312 into the function D(h) = 440 - 65h:
D(312) = 440 - 65(312)
D(312) = 440 - 20,280
D(312) = -19,840
Actually, my previous response is correct. After 312 hours of traveling, the distance left to get to Bloomsfield is -19,840 miles.
To find the distance left to get to Bloomsfield after 312 hours of traveling, we need to substitute the value of h into the function D(h) = 440 - 65h.
Substituting h = 312 into D(h), we have:
D(312) = 440 - 65 * 312 = 440 - 20280 = -19840
Therefore, the distance left to get to Bloomsfield after 312 hours of traveling is -19840 miles.
However, it is important to note that a negative distance does not make sense in this context. It is possible that the negative sign is a mistake or that the function D(h) does not accurately represent the distance.
