Answer:

  a. 2 7/9 miles

  b. 21.6 minutes

  c. 8 1/3 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

The rate at which Catlin runs can be determined from the graph by finding the coordinates of a grid point that lies on the line. The line goes through the origin, so the relationship between time and distance is proportional.

We see that the point (miles, minutes) = (1 2/3, 12) lies on the graph, so the contant of proportionality is ...

  k = y/x = 12/(5/3) = 36/5 = 7.2 . . . . minutes/mile

__

<h3>a.</h3>

The proportion can be written ...

  distance/(20 minutes) = (1 mile)/(7.2 minutes)

  distance = (20/7.2) miles = 2 7/9 miles

Catlin will run 2 7/9 miles in 20 minutes

__

<h3>b.</h3>

The proportion can be written ...

  time/(3 miles) = (7.2 minutes)/(1 mile)

  time = (3)(7.2 minutes) = 21.6 minutes

Catlin was running 21.6 minutes

__

<h3>c.</h3>

In 1 hour, Catlin will run 3 times as far as in 20 minutes. Using the result from part A, we find ...

  3(2 7/9 miles) = 8 1/3 miles 8 1/3 miles

Catlin will run 8 1/3 miles in one hour.

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

Once we have a relationship between minutes and miles, we can write proportions with either of those numbers in the numerator or denominator. We find it convenient to put the unknown value in the numerator of a proportion, which is why the ratios are written differently in the different parts of the problem.

Julie needs to cut 4 pieces of yam, each with the same length, and a piece of yarn 7.75 inches long. Let x represent the
Lapatulllka [165]

Answer:

She has to cut another piece = 7.75 inches

Total length = 4x + 7.75

This is what y represent, so

y = 4x + 7.75

The graph of the equation is continuous

The ratio of workers to supervisors and factories 32 to 2. The ratio of male workers to female workers is 6 to 5. If there are 8
Margarita [4]

Answer:

The number of supervisor in the factory is 9 .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The ratio of workers to supervisors and factories 32 : 2

let the number of workers = 32 x

And The number of supervisors = 2 x

The ratio of male workers to female workers is 6:5

Let The number of male workers = 6 y

And The number of female worker = 5 y

The number of female workers at the plant = 80

So, 5 y = 80

∴  y = \frac{80}{5}

I.e y = 16

So, The number of male workers = 6 y = 6 × 16 = 96

Thus The Total number of worker in the factory =  The number of male workers + The number of female workers at the plant

Or, The Total number of worker in the factory = 96 + 80 = 146

Now , Again

∵ The ratio of workers to supervisors in factories 32 : 2

So, The number of workers = 32 x

I.e 146 = 32 x

∴ x = \frac{146}{32} = 4.5

So, The number of supervisors = 2 x = 2 × 4.5 = 9

Hence The number of supervisor in the factory is 9 . Answer

Solve this system of equations. y = 5x +20 and y = -2x -8
Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer:

y = 0

x = -4

( x, y ) = ( -4 , 0 )

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 5x + 20

y = -2x - 8

Substitute

5x + 20 = -2x - 8

Add 8 on both sides

5x + 20 + 8 = -2x - 8 + 8

5x + 28 = -2x

Subtract 5x on both sides

5x - 5x + 28 = -2x - 5x

28 = -7x

Divide by -7 on both sides

28/-7 = -7x/-7

-4 = x

Now that you have x, you can substitute it in one of the equations that was given to find the value of y.

y = 5x + 20

y = 5(-4) + 20

y = -20 + 20

y = 0

Or....

y = -2x - 8

y = -2(-4) - 8

y = 8 - 8

y = 0

They will both be 0 no matter what

Point form = ( -4, 0 )

Hope this helped
