14 10/8 is equal to 15 2/8 which cnman simplify down to 15 1/4. So, the simplest you can get is 15 1/4. I hope this helps!
Find the velocity first, the "slope".
m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m=(95.5-53)/(4-2)
m=21.25 ? Your equations are wrong, I'll double check with another set of points...
m=(350.5-308)/(16-14)
m=21.25 LOL, yep none of your lines has the correct slope.
Anyway...
y=21.25x+b, using any point we can solve for the y-intercept, or "b", (2, 53)
53=21.25(2)+b
53=42.5+b
10.5=b so the distance to the lighthouse as a function of time is:
y=21.25x+10.5
So essentially, you should fire your teacher or burn that book you are using :)
Hope this helps you 3y=54-2
Answer:
C) 6 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
set up a proportion of height/shadow = height/shadow
30/10 = h/2
cross-multiply:
10h = 60
h = 6
