We know that we need to bake 6 pound for 138 minutes, then we have the proportion:

\frac{6}{138}

Let x be the time we need to bake the 3 pound roast, in this case we have the proportion:

\frac{3}{x}

By equating both ratios we have the proportion:

\frac{3}{x}=\frac{6}{138}

Now, by simplifying the right side of the proportion we have that:

\begin{gathered} \frac{3}{x}=\frac{6}{138} \\ \frac{3}{x}=\frac{3}{69} \end{gathered}

For this proportion to be equal we need that x=69, therefore we need to cook the 3 pound roast for 69 minutes.

Flying fish use their pectoral fins like airplane wings to glide through the air. Suppose a flying fish reaches a maximum height
GrogVix [38]

The flight is in the shape of a parabola with a vertex 5 feet above the water and  1/2 * 33 = 16.5 feet horizontally from the point of leaving the water

y = a(x - h)^2 + k

where  (h,k)  is the vertex of the  parabola and here it is (5 , 16.5), so we have the function:-

y = a(x - 16.5)^2 + 5

when x = 0 y = 0  so

0 = a(-16.5)^2 + 5

which gives a = -0.018365

So our function for the flight path is

y = -0.018365(x - 16.5)^2 + 5     Answer

Help me solve (b) in this quadrilateral
Savatey [412]

Answer:

b = 87°

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to answer this question, we need to utilise an important angle fact which is <em>angles in a quadrilateral add up to 360° </em>

Using the information we can set up an equation to find the value of b

→ Form equation

63 + 140 + 70 + b = 360

→ Simplify

273 + b = 360

→ Minus 273 from both sides isolate b

b = 87°

The weather report says the temperature is 20°c and will drop 5°c per hour for the next 6 hours. Daryl plans to be gone at least
lubasha [3.4K]

The inequality equation will be -5x + 20 < -10.

<h3>What is inequality?</h3>

Inequality is defined as an equation that does not contain an equal sign.

The weather report says the temperature is 20°c and will drop 5°c per hour for the next 6 hours.

Daryl plans to be gone at least 6 hours, and he has a plant outside.

If he wants the plant to remain in temperatures above -10° should Daryl move the plant to a warmer location before leaving will be

The inequality equation will be

-5x + 20 < -10

where x is the number of hours.

Then we have

-10 < -5x + 20

5x > 30

   x > 6 hours
