Explanation:
The slope of the line is found by the method: rise/run
You calculate how much the slope rises(goes up) and divide it by run(goes horizontal).
One more thing to note is that: the slope is negative BECAUSE ITS DECREASING.
Your answer: -3/2
Answer:
right triangles are 90 degrees sooooo
add 39 plus 27, that's 66
90 minus 66 issss <u>24</u>
Yes, It would be reasonable since thats about the weight of a skateboard.
However, the average skateboard is closer to 6 pounds. So, the skateboard in the question is very possible- but it would be really low quality.
However- given that you are in middle school- I would say yes, it is reasonable.
We observe that 14 is 4 more than twice 5.
The scooter's rate is 14 mph.
The bicycle's rate is 5 mph.
_____
time = distance/rate
14/(2b +4) = 5/b . . . . . . let b represent the bicycle's speed in mi/h
14b = 10b +20 . . . . . . . .cross multiply
4b = 20 . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 10b
b = 5 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 4. Same answer as above.
