The sea floor is 104 feet below sea level. Katy is 28 feet below sea level. She is moving downward at a rate of 4 feet per minute. Colin used the following calculation to determine how long it will take Katy to reach the sea floor. Is he correct? Explain.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

19 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Taking the sea level as the reference point, the values of depths to be considered can be determined as follows;

Total depth from sea level to the sea floor = 104 feet

Katy's depth from the sea level (depth covered) = 28 feet

Katy's distance to the sea floor = 104 - 28

                                          = 76 feet

Katy's distance to the sea floor = 76 feet

But Katy moves at a rate/ speed of 4 feet per minute;

So that,

speed = [tex]\frac{distance}{time}[/tex]

time = [tex]\frac{distance }{speed}[/tex]

       = [tex]\frac{76}{4}[/tex]

       = 19

time = 19 minutes

Therefore it would take Katy 19 minutes to reach the sea floor.

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

No, Colin is not correct. He needs to subtract first to get the total distance and then divide by the rate. He should have put parentheses around 104–28 and then divided by 4 to get the answer of 19 minutes.

What is the slope and y-intercept of -3x - 12 = -3y?​

Answers

Answer:

y=x+4

Step-by-step explanation:

Just divide everything my -3

x-4y=-4
5x – 4y= 12

Answers

Answer: {x,y} = {4,2}

  [1]    x - 4y = -4

  [2]    5x - 4y = 12// Solve equation [1] for the variable  x

 [1]    x = 4y - 4

// Plug this in for variable  x  in equation [2]

  [2]    5•(4y-4) - 4y = 12

  [2]    16y = 32

// Solve equation [2] for the variable  y

  [2]    16y = 32

  [2]    y = 2

// By now we know this much :

   x = 4y-4

   y = 2

// Use the  y  value to solve for  x

   x = 4(2)-4 = 4

Answers

Answer:

y = 5x

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the direct variation equation y = kx

Plug in 30 as y and 6 as x, then solve for k

y = kx

30 = k(6)

5 = k

Plug in 5 as k into y = kx

y = 5x

So, the equation relating x and y is y = 5x

Answer:

y=5x

Step-by-step explanation:

30 divide by 6 = 5 so y = 5x

What is the area of this quadrilateral?
8 ft
6 ft
3.ft
A. 33 square feet
B. 42 square feet
C. 17 square feet
D. 66 square feet

Answers

Answer:

a. 33 sqft

Step-by-step explanation:

The figure is made of two non-overlapping triangles, so the total area is the sum of the areas of the two triangles

Area of a triangle is 1/2(bh) where b = base length and h = height (b and h must be perpendicular to each other)

The top triangle has b = 6 and h=8, so A=1/2(6)(8) = 1/2(48) = 24

The bottom triangle has b=6 and h=3, so A=1/2(6)(3)=1/2(18) = 9

Total area is sum of these two or 24 + 9 = 33

Step-by-step explanation:

Dada la siguiente información:

Total de pisos= 16

Total de ladrillos por piso= 16

Para calcular cantidad de ladrillos en total, tenemos que usar la siguiente formula:

Número total de ladrillos= total de ladrillos^2

Número total de ladrillos= 16^2

Númer total de ladrillos= 256

En este caso lo hace al cuadrado por que la cantidad de pisos y ladrillos por piso es la misma. Sino, es mejor expresarlo como una multiplicación.
