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 If a rectangular prism has a length, width, and height of centimeter, centimeter, and centimeter, respectively, then the
USPshnik [31]

Answer:

The volume is 105/512 cubic inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Given [Missing from the question]

L = \frac{3}{8} cm -- Length

W=\frac{5}{8}cm -- Width

H = \frac{7}{8}cm -- Height

Required

Determine the volume.

The volume (V) is calculated as thus:

V = L *W *H

V = \frac{3}{8} cm* \frac{5}{8}cm * \frac{7}{8}cm

V = \frac{3}{8} * \frac{5}{8} * \frac{7}{8}cm^3

V = \frac{3*5*7}{8*8*8}cm^3

V = \frac{105}{512}cm^3

Determine the x-intercept for 3x + 2y = 14.
spin [16.1K]

First isolate y

3x + 2y = 14

-3x              -3x

2y = -3x + 14

y = -3/2x + 14/2

y = -3/2x + 7

X-intercept is found when y = 0

0 = -3/2x + 7

-7 = -3/2x

x = 14/3

x-in. = (14/3,0)

I don't know how to do this. Any help?
Brut [27]

Answer:

cos 37=x/b (second one)

sin 37= a/b (third one)

tan 37=a/x (sixth one)

Step-by-step explanation:

Cos is defined by the adjacent side over the hypotenuse. Cos 37 would be x/b. Clearly, that is option 2. Sin is defined by opposite over hypotenuse. Sin 37 would be a/b. That is the 3rd option. Tan is defined by opposite over adjacent. Tan 37 would be a/x or the 6th option.
