An emperor penguin travels a distance of 70 miles each year back to the place of its birth. If that same penguin moves at a speed of 2.4 miles per hour, the function d = 70 – 2.4t represents its distance d from its birthplace t hours after it has started its journey home. Find the zero of this function.

Respuesta :

Answer:

29.17 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

to find the zero of the function, set d to equal zero, so

0 = 70 - 2.4t

-70 = -2.4t

-70/-2.4 = t

29.17 = t
