An ostrich is being chased by a cheetah,
The ostrich is running at 44 feet per
second and the cheetah at 110 feet per
second. If the two started at the same
place and the ostrich got a 60-second
head start, how many seconds will it be
before the cheetah catches it?
Answer:
40 seconds
Step-by-step explanation:
(ostrich speed * seconds) + head start = (cheetah speed * seconds)
44x + (44 * 60) = 110x
44x + 2640 = 110x
2640 = 66x
x = 40
No. of seconds before cheetah catches ostrich = 40 seconds
What is speed?Speed tells us how slow or fast an object moves. It describes the distance travelled divided by the time taken to cover the distance.
Speed is directly Proportional to Distance and Inversely proportional to Time.
Speed = Distance/Time
Given,
Speed of ostrich = 44 feet per second
Speed of cheetah = 110 feet per second
Starting point is same
Ostrich got 60 second head start
Distance travelled by ostrich in 60 second = 44 × 60 = 2640 feet
let S be the number of seconds that it will take the cheetah to catch the ostrich
Distance covered by cheetah = 110S
Distance that the ostrich will cover before being caught is 2640 + 44S
According to the question
110S = 2640 + 44S
110S - 44S =2650
66S = 2640
S = 2640/66
S = 40 seconds.
Hence, It will be 40 seconds before cheetah catches the ostrich.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Decimal number in mathematics is one in which the whole number and the fractional part is separated by a decimal point
If we divide 4 by 10 it will give us a a decimal number which was done below
4/10
=0.4
And also if we divide 40 by 100 we will still have a decimal of 0.4
0.4=40/100

If -2x+4= 8, will x be positive or negative? Without solving the equation, explain how you know.
Answer:
x is negative
Step-by-step explanation:
I know x will be negative without solving the equation because we can see that both sides equal positive 8 and for -2x to be positive the x value must be negative. when two negative values are multiplied they change into positive. If the x value was Positive this equation would be false.
Hope this helps you
Answer:
Yes, x will be negative.
We are given:
-2x + 4 = 8
This means that "something", in this case -2x, added to 4, equals 8
The only thing that can add to 4 and equal 8 is 4.
So, that means -2x has to equal 4, which is a positive number.
Negative x negative = positive.
-2 is already a negative number, so x has to be a negative number.

Need help ASAP!! Write an informal proof to show triangles ABC and DEF are similar.
Answer:
Δ ABC and Δ DEF are similar because their corresponding sides are proportional
Step-by-step explanation:
Two triangles are similar if their corresponding sides are proportional which means the corresponding sides have equal ratios
In the two triangles ABC and DEF
∵ AB = 4 units
∵ DE = 2 units
∴ [tex]\frac{AB}{DE}=\frac{4}{2}=2[/tex]
∵ BC = 6 units
∵ EF = 3 units
∴ [tex]\frac{BC}{EF}=\frac{6}{3}=2[/tex]
∵ CA = 2 units
∵ FD = 1 units
∴ [tex]\frac{CA}{FD}=\frac{2}{1}=2[/tex]
∴ [tex]\frac{AB}{DE}=\frac{BC}{EF}=\frac{CA}{FD}=2[/tex]
∵ All the ratios of the corresponding sides are equal
∴ The corresponding sides of the two triangles are proportional
∴ Δ ABC is similar to Δ DEF

A. Lesson
1. Describe the formula for slope in words and with an equation.
M=y^2-y^1/x^2-x^1
1. What is the slope of all horizontal lines? What is the slope of all vertical lines?
The slope of all horizontal lines is 0. The slope of all vertical lines is undefined.
B. Lesson Content
3. Copy and paste the 3-step procedure for finding the slope using the formula.
4. Use Example 3 as your model for the following: In the 2000 census, the population was 8000; in the 2010 census, the population was 7500. Find the rate of growth for the town. Show the 3-step procedure, as well as the final answer in words.
A(200(x1), 8000(y1)) and B(2010(x2), 7500(y2))
M=(y2-y1)(x1-x2)=7500-8000/2010-2000
M=-50=50 people per year decrease
C. Write the slope-intercept (y = mx + b) form of the equation from the information given. Show your steps as done in the lesson content to earn credit.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Slope is m
in this case slope is -50
b is the y-int,
in this case the y-int is 8000
so your equation: y = -50x + 8000
Sovle -5x + 8 < - 2x + 23
Answer:
_3x>+31 but I am not sure
Step-by-step explanation:
-5x<-2x+8+23
-3x>+31
Answer:
x > -5
Step-by-step explanation:
1.) Add +5x on both sides
-5x + 8 < - 2x + 23
+5x +5x
8 < 3x + 23
2.) Subtract 23 from both sides
8 < 3x + 23
-23 -23
-15 < 3x
3.) Divide by 3 on both sides
-15 < 3x
3 3
-5 < x
Because you divided by a negative, the sign flips
-5 > x
Can someone help me with the questions in the picture?
Answer:
9. Perpendicular
10. neither
11. Perpendicular
12. neither
Step-by-step explanation:
------------------
Slope Intercept Form: y = mx + b
* M is the slope
* B is the y intercept
------------------
Lines are parallel if they have the same slope (ex. If two equations have a slope of 2)
Lines are perpendicular if they have the opposite and the reciprocal slope (ex. If 1 equation has a slope of 3 and another equation has a slope of - [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex] )
------------------
9. Perpendicular: The slopes are reciprocal of each other and one of them is negative
10. Neither: The lines are not perpendicular because the slopes are both negative
11. Perpendicular: If you plot y=5 it is a horizontal line through 5. If you plot x=-3 it is vertical line through -3. These lines intercept and are perpendicular.
12. Neither: The slopes of both equations need to be the same to be parallel

Answer:
x = 6 deg
Step-by-step explanation:
14x + 11 = 16x - 1 (corresponding angles, // lines)
-2x = -12
x = 6
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
16x - 1 and 4x + 11 are corresponding angles and are congruent, thus
16x - 1 = 14x + 11 ( subtract 14x from both sides )
2x - 1 = 11 ( add 1 to both sides )
2x = 12 ( divide both sides by 2 )
x = 6
Substitute x = 6 into either of the 2 equal angles
Substituting into 14x + 11 , then
14x + 11 = 14(6) + 11 = 84 + 11 = 95° → C

can you please answer my question too? it is due soon
Answer:
x = 12
Step-by-step explanation:
1/2x-5=10-3/4x
add 5 to both sides
1/2x=15-3/4x
add 3/4x to both sides
1/2x + 3/4x = 15
2/4x + 3/4x = 15
5/4x = 15
divide both sides by 5/4
x = 15 * 4/5
x = 60/5
x = 12

Which of the following is equivalent to -(7/4) ?
A. 7/-4
B. -7/-4
C. 4/-7
D. 7/4
Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
-(7/4) equals -7/4 or negative seven forths. Its doesn't matter where the negative sign is as long there's only 1 of them and that its still 7/4.
So through process of elimination, we take out B because theres 2 negative, which make a positive, our answer is negative
C is wrong because its 4/7, not 7/4
D is wrong because it's positive, leaving us with A
A linear function has the same y-intercept as x + 4y = 8 and its graph contains the point (5,3). Find the slope of the linear function. Write the slope in fraction form.
Answer:
x - 5y = - 10
Step-by-step explanation:
y = mx + b (b is y-intercept)
m = [tex]\frac{y_{2} -y_{1} }{x_{2} -x_{1} }[/tex]
~~~~~~~~~~~~
x + 4y = 8 ⇔ y = [tex]-\frac{1}{4}[/tex] x + 2 ⇒ y-intercept is 2 and coordinates of y-intercept are (0, 2)
(5, 3)
m = [tex]\frac{3-2}{5-0}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{1}{5}[/tex]
y = [tex]\frac{1}{5}[/tex] x + 2 (slope-intercept form)
x - 5y = - 10 (standard form)
