H=height
y=number of years.

we have the next expresion:
h(y)=my+b  

m=the slope of the line, in this case, the slope is equal to "18"; (18 cm/ year).
b=the initial heigth, in this case, the initial heigth is equal to "5" (5 cm).

Therefore, our  expression will be:
h(y)=18y +5

answer: h(y)=18y+5

What is the length of the hypotenuse in a right triangle with legs of length 7 and 24?
Fiesta28 [93]
A² + b² = c²   a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse.

7² + 24² = c²

49 + 576 = c²

625 = c²

√625 = √c²

25 = c

hope that helps, God bless!

Nora and Eli are making homemade spring rolls for a party. Nora can make 8 spring rolls in 10 minutes. Eli can make 10 spring ro
devlian [24]
Eli will finish first.

Use 8/10 and 10/12. This represents how many spring rolls over how many minutes. Make your equations like this: 8/10 = 40/x and 10/12 = 40/x. Find x, which will give you the minutes it takes them to make 40 rolls.

You get x = 50 for the first one and x = 48 for the second. Nora makes 40 rolls  in 50 minutes, and Eli makes 40 rolls in 48 minutes. Eli is faster. 

Hope this helped! Please mark me brainliest!

Which number line shows the solution for
Brums [2.3K]

Answer:

It's the last choice.

Step-by-step explanation:

| n | ≤ 2  represents the distance between n and 0 that is less than or equal to 2.  The dots on the 2 and -2 are black because the equal sign is part of the inequality.

Note the vertical lines about the n mean the absolute value of n - the positive distance between  n and 0, which has a maximum of 2 either side of the 0.

Mark and Trisha are traveling in the same direction and Mark is going 16 miles per hour. Trisha is going 12 miles per hour but s
Lorico [155]

Answer:

32 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

Let the total distance be x miles

Marks speed= 16miles per hour

Trisha's speed= 12 miles per hour

Trisha has covered 8 miles and has  (x-8) miles to finish line

We know that

Speed= distance/time

time= distance/speed

Hence the time taken for Mark to finish is

time= x/16---------------1

The time taken for Trisha to finish is

time= (x-8)/12-----------2

equate 1 and 2 above

x/16= (x-8)/12

cross multiply

16(x-8)= 12*x

16x-128= 12x

collect like terms

16x-12x= 128

4x=128

x= 128/4

x= 32 miles

Hence they will meet at exactly 32 miles along the way
