It takes Caroline 1/5 of an hour to walk a mile. Four of Caroline's friends time themselves on their own walk of different lengths. Which friend is walking at the same rate as Caroline? *

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Jeanette is the friend walking at the same rate as Caroline. This is because Jeanette also takes 1/5 of an hour to walk a mile.

Step-by-step explanation:

Note: This question is not complete. The complete question is therefore provided before answering the question as follows:

It takes Caroline 1/5 of an hour to walk a mile. Four of Caroline's friends time themselves on their own walk of different lengths. Which friend is walking at the same rate as Caroline? If:

David walked 1/2 a mile in 2/5 an hour

Jeanette walked 1/2 a mile in a 1/10 an hour

Kay walked 1/5 a mile 1/2 a hour

Mark walked 1/3 a mile in 3/5 an hour

The explanation of the answer is now given as follows:

To determine which friend is walking at the same rate as Caroline, we first convert their rate to number hours it takes to walk a mile as follows:

a. David walked 1/2 a mile in 2/5 an hour

This implies that:

(1 / 2) * 2 = 2/2 = 1 mile

(2 / 5) * 2 = 4/5 of an hour

Therefore, David takes 4/5 of an hour to walk a mile.

b. Jeanette walked 1/2 a mile in a 1/10 an hour

This implies that:

(1 / 2) * 2 = 2/2 = 1 mile

(1 / 10) * 2 = 2 / 10 = 1/5 of an hour

Therefore, Jeanette takes 1/5 of an hour to walk a mile.

c. Kay walked 1/5 a mile 1/2 a hour

This implies that:

(1 / 5) * 5 = 5/5 = 1 mile

(1 / 2) * 5 = 5 / 2 = 2.5 hours

Therefore, Kay takes 2.5 hours to walk a mile.

d. Mark walked 1/3 a mile in 3/5 an hour

This implies that:

(1 / 3) * 3 = 3/3 = 1 mile

(3 / 5) * 3 = (3 * 3) / 5 = 9 / 5 = 1.8 hours

Therefore, Kay takes 1.8 hours to walk a mile.

Conclusion.

Based on the calculations above, only Jeanette is walking at the same rate as Caroline. This is because Jeanette also takes 1/5 of an hour to walk a mile.

A butterfly is flying 8 3/4 feet above the ground. It descends at a steady rate to a spot 6 1/4 feet above the ground in 1 2/3 minutes. What is the butterfly’s change in elevation each minute?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

6¼ ft - 8¾ ft = -2½ ft

(-2½ ft)/(1⅔ min) = (5/2 ft)/(5/3 min)

= (5/2)/(5/3) ft/min

= (5/2 × 3/5 ft)/min

= 1.5 ft /min

The required change in elevation of butterfly is 1.5 ft\min.

Given that,

A butterfly is flying [tex]8\frac{3}{4}[/tex] feet above the ground.

It descends at a steady rate to a spot [tex]6 \frac{1}{4}[/tex] feet above the ground in [tex]1\dfrac{2}{3}[/tex] minutes.

We have to determine,

The butterfly’s change in elevation each minute.

According to the question,

Change in elevation = butterfly flying above ground - it descends at a steady rate to a spot above the ground ,

[tex]= 8\dfrac{3}{4} - 6\dfrac{1}{4}\\\\= \dfrac{35}{4} - \dfrac{25}{4}\\\\= \dfrac{10}{4}\\\\= \dfrac{5}{2}\\\\= 2.5 feet[/tex]

Then,

To find Change in elevation per minute,

[tex]= T = 1\dfrac{2}{3} = \dfrac{5}3}[/tex]

Therefore,

Change in elevation per minute,

[tex]= \dfrac{2.5}{\frac{5}{3}} = 2.5 \times \dfrac{3}{5} = 1.5 \ ft \ per\ minute[/tex]

Hence, The required change in elevation of butterfly is 1.5 ft\min.

The slope of a line that passes through points (5, 14) and (-4, y) is 4/9. What is the value of y?​

Answers

Answer:

slope=m=4/9

(x',y')=(5,14)

(x",y")=(-4,y)

we have

m=(y"-y')/(x"-x')

4/9=(-4-5)/(y-14)

4y-56=-81

4y=-81+56

y=-25/4

Answer: y = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of a line is the rise/run, so if you want to find the slope of a line between two points, you can take the change in y between the two points and divide it by the change in x.

The change in y would be (y2 - y1), where y2 is the y position of the second point and y1 is the y position of the first.

In a similar manner, to find the change in x, we can use (x2 - x1), where x2 is the x position of the second point and x1 is the x position of the first.

Now that we have the change in x and the change in y, we can make an equation to find the slope (which is change in y / change in x):

m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

Now we can assign the points:

Point 1 is (5, 14)

Point 2 is (-4, y)

(Note: You could flip which point is which, and it wouldn't change the final answer, I'm just assigning these so you know where the x and y values are coming from when I plug the values into the equation)

Now that we have both points, we can plug the values into the equation:

m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

m = (y - 14) / (-4 - 5)

m = (y - 14) / (-9)

There's one piece of information we haven't used yet, which will help us solve for the value of y. What we need to use is the slope (which is given to us as 4/9).

Plugging in the value of the slope will let us get y:

m = (y - 14) / (-9)

4/9 = (y - 14) / (-9)

-4 = (y - 14)

(Note: We're multiplying both sides by -9, don't forget about the negative sign)

-4 = y - 14

y = -4 + 14

y = 10
