You are going on an expedition to dig for dinosaur fossils. In digging you come across a small trunk left by another archeologist. In the trunk is a paper that lists how deep you need to dig to reach dinosaur fossils. Unfortunately, something spilled on part of the paper and it is damaged.
Using your knowledge of mathematics, find the missing numbers in the
chart. Write a generalization or rule to determine any number of feet you
must dig given the number of years.

If the Jurassic period was 200 million years ago, how deep would you need
to dig at this location to uncover fossils of that era? Explain why your
answer is or is not reasonable.

You Are Going On An Expedition To Dig For Dinosaur Fossils. In Digging You Come Across A Small Trunk

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

200,000 feet to dig

Step-by-step explanation:

We use a ratio for this problem

30,000         200,000,000

-----------   =   ---------------------

30                        x

200,000,000 * 30

----------------------------  = 200,000 feet to dig

30,000

This answer is reasonable because 200,000,000 years ago was a long time ago so then the person must dig a reasonable amount of dirt. So then 200,000 feet is reasonable.

What is the equation of a line that has a slope of -5 and passes through the point (0, 2)?
y = -5x
y = 2x - 5
y = -5x + 2

Answers

Answer:

y= -5x+2 is the equation.

Answer:

y= -5x + 2

Step-by-step explanation:

y = mx + b(we will put the points of "x" and "y" into this formula)

2= -5 (0) +b( as "x" is "0" and is multiplied by "-5" it will become "0" giving us the value of "b")

2=b(finally we will substitute this answer in the formula we've written)

therefore the answer will be:

y= -5x + 2

Stewart has a home-based business putting on children’s parties. He charges $60 to design the party and then $6.00 per child. Write a function rule that relates the total cost of the party to the number of children n.


f(n) = 6 + 60n

f(n) = 6n – 55

f(n) = 60 + 6n

f(n) = 6 – 55n

Answers

Answer:

f(n) = 60 + 6n

Step-by-step explanation:

numbers of students = n

party decoration charge = 60

per child cost = 6

so, therefore

f(n) = 60 + 6n

MARK ME AS BRAINLISTPLZ FOLLOW ME

Answer: A. f(n) 60 + 6n

60 is constant

6 per child is variable

Let c = number of children

total cost = 60 +6c

Step-by-step explanation: i got it from somebody else's brainly

If there are n children, and each additional child who joins will add another $6 to the cost, then the cost due to the number of children will be 6n. We also have the fixed cost of $60, no matter how many children join. Therefore, we add up these costs to get Cost = f(n) = 60 + 6n.

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallel lines have the same slope, so find the slope of this line

Use rise over run, (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

(y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

(8 + 2) / (-1 - 4)

Answer:

8 13/28 or as a decimal: 8.46

Step-by-step explanation:

Rewrite the sum:

(4+3)+(5/7+3/4)

Add the numbers 4+3:

7+(5/7+3/4)

Add the fractions:

7+41/28

Convert the improper fraction into a mixed number:

7 + 1 13/28

Write the mixed number as a sum of the whole number and the fractional part:

7+1+13/28

Add the numbers 7+1 and then there is your answer!

8 13/28

If your paper, quiz, homework, etc says decimal form or alternative form then the decimal form is 8.46 and the alternate form is 237/26. But 8 13/28 cannot be reduced any lower.

Answer:

a = 30

b = 15

c = 3

d = 30

e = 10

f = 20

Step-by-step explanation:

60 deg and a + 30 are alt int <S and congruent

a + 30 = 60

a = 30

a + 30 and a + 2b are corresponding angles and congruent

a + 2b = a + 30

2b = 30

b = 15

a + 2b and 5b - 5c are vertical angles and congruent

5b - 5c = a + 2b

5(15) - 5c = 30 + 2(15)

75 - 5c = 30 + 30

75 - 5c = 60

-5c = -15

c = 3

a + 2b and 10c + d are corresponding angles and congruent

10c + d = a + 2b

10(3) + d = 30 + 2(15)

d + 30 = 60

d = 30

5b - 5c and 2d + 6e are supplementary and add to 180

5b - 5c + 2d + 6e = 180

5(15) - 5(3) + 2(30) + 6e = 180

75 - 15 + 60 + 6e = 180

6e + 120 = 180

6e = 60

e = 10

2d + 6e and 4f + 4e are alt int angles and congruent.

4f + 4e = 2d + 6e

4f + 4(10) + 2(30) + 6(10)

4f + 40 = 60 + 60

4f + 40 = 120

4f = 80

f = 20

The average diameter of a tree is measured over time. The equation y = 3/4x, where x is time in years and y is the
diameter in inches, models this relationship.
What is the predicted diameter, in inches, of the tree after 12 years?

Answers

Answer:

The predicted diameter of a tree after 12 years is 9 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

The average diameter of the tree is represented by [tex]y = \frac{3}{4}\cdot x[/tex]. The predicted diameter of the tree after 12 years is determined by evaluating the linear function at [tex]x = 12[/tex]. That is:

[tex]y = \frac{3}{4}\cdot (12)[/tex]

[tex]y = 9[/tex]

The predicted diameter of a tree after 12 years is 9 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

The variable m equals -2, so what you would do is plug it into the equation.

4(-2+5)+42

Next you would distribute the 4 into -2 & 5.

(-8+20) + 42

Add what's in the parenthesis.

12 + 42
