It will take the snail <u>40,271.33 hours</u> (time) to travel 1,171.1 miles (distance) at 0.013 meters per second (speed).

<h3>How are the hours determined?</h3>

The hours that it will take the snail to travel the distance is determined by first converting the miles into meters at 1 mile = 1,609.34 meters.

The speed per second is also converted into speed her hour.

The conversions use the mathematical operations of division and multiplication.

Time = distance/speed.

<h3>Data and Calculations:</h3>

Total distance in miles = 1,171.1 miles

Total distance in meters = 1,884,698.07 meters (1,171.1 x 1609.34)

Speed = 0.013 meters per second

Speed in hours = 46.8 meters per hour (0.013 x 60 x 60)

The number of hours to cover the distance = Total Distance/Speed

= <u>40,271.33 hours </u>(1,884,698.07/46.8)

Thus, it will take the snail <u>40,271.33 hours</u> to cover a distance of 1,171.1 miles at a speed of 0.013 meters per second.

Point G is the center of the small circle. Point X is the center of the large circle. Points G, Y, and X are all on line segment
Rama09 [41]
The answer 
if Marco wants to create a new circle using GX as a radius,
so GX = r = 10 cm + 16 cm = 26 cm
the area of a circle is 

A = pie x r², so the new circle's area should be A = pie x 26² = 676 pie cm²
the true answer is

Emily has 8 coins in her purse totaling 50 cents. The only kinds of coins she has are nickels and dimes. How many nickels does E
makvit [3.9K]
5x + 10y = 50
x + y = 8

x = 8 - y
5*(8-y) + 10y = 50
40 - 5y + 10y = 50
10y - 5y = 50 - 40
5y = 10
y = 2

x + y = 8
x + 2 = 8
x = 8 - 2
x = 6

She has 6 nickels and 2 dimes

Does each equation represent exponential decay or exponential growth?
lisov135 [29]

Answer:

1. H = 5.9(0.82)^{t}. Exponential decay function.

2. y = 0.8(3.6)^{t}. Exponential growth function.

3. f(t) = 0.72(15)^{t}. Exponential growth function.

4. A = \frac{4}{9} (8)^{t}. Exponential growth function.

5. A = (\frac{4}{3})^{t}. Exponential growth function.

6.  H = \frac{7}{2} (\frac{5}{6} )^{t}. Exponential decay function.

7. g(x) = 0.3(x). Not an exponential function.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. H = 5.9(0.82)^{t}. This is an exponential decay function.

As the value of t increases H-value decreases.

2. y = 0.8(3.6)^{t}. This is an exponential function of growth.

As the value of t increases y-value also increases.

3. f(t) = 0.72(15)^{t}. This is an another example of exponential growth function.

As the value of t increases f(t)-value also increases.

4. A = \frac{4}{9} (8)^{t}. This is again an example of exponential growth function.

As the value of t increases A-value also increases.

5. A = (\frac{4}{3})^{t}. This is again an example of exponential growth function.

As the value of t increases A-value also increases.

6. H = \frac{7}{2} (\frac{5}{6} )^{t}. This is another an example of exponential decay function.

As the value of t increases, H-value decreases.

7. g(x) = 0.3(x). This is a non-exponential function. (Answer)

What is the value of 4x−8(2−x) , when x=−14 ?
hoa [83]

Answer:

-184

Step-by-step explanation:

First we plug in -14 into the x's.

4 (-14) - 8(2 - (- 14))

Then we can distribute the 8.

4 (-14) - 16 - 112

Then solve from here.

-56 - 16 - 112

= -184
