The final solution is y=-5/3x-10
<span>the answer to 1.47 divided by 3.5 is 0.42. When you use different power of 10 to multiply the dividend and the divisor, the answer changes to different multiples of 0.42 in terms of 10. The answer could be 0.042 or 4.2 etc depending on the power of 10 used to multiply the dividend and divisor.</span>
Answer: 8 1/3 hours or 500 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
Keep in mind that there are 100 centimeters in a meter.
The snail moves at a pace of 12 cm/h, and needs to go 100 cm. You can just divide 100/12 to get 8 1/3, which is how many hours (groups of 12 cm) it takes for the snail to travel 100 cm (1 meter).
If necessary, you can also multiply 8 1/3 by 60 to get the number of minutes the snail takes. 8 times 60 is 480, and 1/3 of an hour is 20, so add 480+20 to get 500 minutes.
