I know lots about whales! I can help you out!


The Humpback is an awesome creature. She weighs about 66,000 pounds. She's as long as 42 ft. when fully-grown. She eats up to 4,400-5,500 pounds of food (krill, small fish, plankton, mackerel, etc.). She can swim at top speed of 9 miles per hour (MPH).

Hope this helps!!!!!!!

Average speed=totaldistance/ttoaltime

d=rt
40mph for 30mins (1/2 hr), travels 20mi
rest for 15min (1/4 hr), travels 0mi
swims at 32mph for 45min (3/4hr), travels 96/4=24mi

total distance=20+0+24=44
total time=1/2+1/4+3/4=1 and 1/2=3/2
44/(3/2)=44 times 2/3=88/3=29 and 1/3

about 29 and 1/3 mph

What is the y-intercept of a line that passes through (-3,3) and (1,-5)
shepuryov [24]

Answer:

The point-slope formula states:

(

y

−

y

)

=

m

(

x

−

x

)

Where

m

is the slope and

(

x

y

1

)

is a point the line passes through.

Substituting the slope and values from the point in the problem gives:

(

y

−

1

)

=

(

)

(

y

=

(

If you want the equation in the somewhat more familiar slope-intercept form we can solve this equation for

y

. The slope-intercept form of a linear equation is:

y

=

m

x

+

b

Where

m

is the slope and

b

is the y-intercept value.
