Answer:

1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

3/8 + 2/8 is 5/8, 1/2 is equal to 4/8, so 5/8 is only 1/8 away from 1/2 while 5/8 is also 3/8 away from 1 or 8/8 therefore, it is closer to 1/2

Answer:

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

Both horses travel 0 miles in 0 minutes. We can see this on the graph where both lines start at the 0 in the bottom left corner. For the purpose of writing the equations this also shows us that the y-intercept is 0. In a slope-intercept equation, y=mx+b, that number is the b. b is zero in both equations, so we don't need to write anything for that.

For horse A, we can see on the graph that at 4 minutes, horse A has traveled 1 mile. Also, confirming this rate, at 8 minutes, it went 2 miles. This will help us find the rate. The rate will be the number we fill in for the m in the y=mx+b equation. Horse A goes 1mile every 4 minutes. That is a rate of 1/4 miles per minute. So Horse A's equation will be

y = (1/4)x You can make it more *intuitive* possibly by using m for miles and t for time instead, like this:

m = (1/4)t

Horse B is a little bit faster, and you can see this bc the line is a little bit steeper. It goes 2 miles in 5 minutes (confirm you can see it goes 4 miles in 10 minutes)

So Horse B's equation is

y = (2/5)x

or miles = (2/5)time

Mathematically, the equations are the same whether you use x,y or m,t

If Horse A runs for 12 minutes then it will run

miles = (1/4)minutes

miles = (1/4)(12)

miles = 3

If Horse B runs for 12 minutes, then it will run

miles = (2/5)minutes

miles = (2/5)12

miles = 4.8

Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer:

X =  12

Step-by-step explanation:

25 + 114 = 139

180 - 139 = 41

41 + 19 = 60

60 / 5 = 12

A line segment has endpoints (4,7) and (1,11). What is the length of the segment?
vredina [299]
You can use the distance formula for this:

√(x2-x1)²+(y2-y1)²

so you'll get √(1-4)²+(11-7)² = √(-3)²+(4)² = √9+16 = √25 = 5 and 5 is your answer

I cannot figure out the work for this problem.
Vedmedyk [2.9K]
Your answer should be -2
Use PEMDAS if confused!
Parentheses
Exponent
Multiplication
Division
Addition
Subtraction.
You would first calculate the number in between your parentheses which would give you -1. Then do -1 to the power of 4(-1^4) which still gives you -1 and then multiply it by 2 which should give you your answer -2. :)
Hope this helps.
