The Canadian goose flew for 4 hours and the Great blue heron flew for 10 hours

<h3>What is an equation?</h3>

An equation is an expression that shows the relationship between two or more variables and numbers.

Let a represent the time flown by the goose and b represent the time flown by the heron. Hence:

a + b = 14    (1)

Also:

20a + 10b = 180   (2)

From equation 1 and 2:

a = 4, b = 10

The Canadian goose flew for 4 hours and the Great blue heron flew for 10 hours

Can anyone help me with this.
Minchanka [31]

Answer:

a) third; from left most graph

b) fourth; right most graph

Step-by-step explanation:

Part a)

The graph is between the speed and time.

Nicole begin jogging faster and faster i.e. speed is increasing w.r.t time thus we have linear line in beginning.

Then she hits a comfortable speed and stayed at it i.e. speed remained constant for that time. Thus we have a straight line.

After that she gradually slows down,i.e speed is decreasing w.r.t time. Thus we have decreasing linear line.

So the graph shape is linear line with increasing slope-a constant straight line-linear line with decreasing slope

which is the third; from left most graph in option

Part b)

The graph is between Distance to campus and time.

As Dale is hiking towards campus, distance should decrease w.r.t time.

In beginning, he is hiking at constant speed towards campus thus the distance towards the campus is decreasing w.r.t time. We get a decreasing linear line.

*Note: here constant speed is not important, instead hiking towards i.e. the direction is important because of the campus distance covered

Then he sees a snake and turn and runs the other way. Thus now the distance towards the campus is increasing. And we get increasing linear line.

*Note running other way is important because of the campus distance covered

After that, he sits for a while i.e he stops and so the distance towards campus also become constant w.r.t time. we get a straight line on the graph.

So the graph shape is linear line with decreasing slope-linear line with increasing slope-a constant straight line

which is the right-most graph in option !

What is 7 1/12 - 2 3/4 in simplest form
stich3 [128]

7 1/12  -  2 3/4

First we have to change mixed numbers to improper fractions

7 1/12  =  7 x 12 + 1 = 85   85/12

2 3/4  =  2 x 4 + 3 =  11     11/4

 85/12 - 11/4

Now we need to find the LCD (least common denominator) for 4 and 12

4, 8, 12

12

12 is our LCD, so it becomes our new denominator

85/12 would stay the same because the denominator wasn't changed but for 11/4 our new denominator is 12, so our fraction will change.

11/4  =  33/12 

4 goes into 12, 3 times. What you do to the bottom, you do to the top.

3 x 11 = 33

3 x 4 = 12

So, our new fraction is 33/12.  Now we subtract

85/12  -  33/12  =  52/12

Now we convert back to a mixed number

52 ÷ 12 = 4 4/12 reduce

4 1/3

Hope this helps.

Im not sure what that means but i can try...

Im not sure the order to put them in but the positive line is

y>1/2x-1

And the negative line is

Y<=3x+1

(I couldn’t find a less than and equal to sign)
