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

Amy is eight years older than twice her cousin Alicia’s age. The sum of their ages is less than 32. Let x represent Alicia's age
Vladimir [108]
Assume that the age of Alicia is x and that of Amy is y
Twice the age of Alicia = 27
Eight years older means we will add 8
Therefore, the statement "<span>Amy is eight years older than twice her cousin Alicia’s age" can be represented as follows:
y = 8 + 2x (equation)
The sum of their ages is less than 32 can be represented as:
x + y < 32 which can also be written as y < 32-x (inequality)

Answer?????????????????
ANTONII [103]
So the angle A on the first diamond corresponds with angle Q, angle B with angle S, angle C with angle R, and angle D with angle P. So if angle D correspond (equals) angle P then x+34=97 and if angle R corresponds with C then 3y-13=83. From there just do some basic algebra to find the x and y values.
