A. T= d/r
A good way to remember this is by making a pyramid with 3 parts and putting distance at the top and rate and time in the other two parts. This way you can visibly see the equation and use it if you need to find one for rate.
B. It's reasonable to write distance as a positive number because distance is always positive. You are not able to have a negative distance. Imagine someone standing on a side walk. Even if they are not moving, their distance is 0 which is positive. If they move backwards or forwards, their distance is still positive because it is more than that 0 and they are gaining something.
C. Just plug in the numbers into the formula.
T= d/r
T= 32.12 m /<span>8.8 m/min
T= 3.65 min

Answer:
680
Step-by-step explanation:
x = total number
.6x = bus riders = 408 (.6 is decimal for 60%)
.6x = 408
x = 408/.6 = 680
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
For problem 10:
1. AE/ED=AC/CB (Since triangle ABC is similar to triangle ADE, we can determine that the ratio of AE to ED is equal to the ratio of AC to CB)
2. AE/ED=(AE+EC)/CB (Rewrite AC as the sum of the lengths forming it; This is sometimes referred to as the Partition Postulate)
3. 9/x=(9+6)/10 (Substitute the given values into this equation)
4. x=6 (Use algebra to solve for x)
For problem 11:
1. AG/AB=AE/AD (Use the same strategy as step one in problem 10, since the rectangles are similar we can create this equation)
2. AG/(AG+GB)=AE/(AE+ED) (Rewrite sides as the some of their parts)
3. 14/(14+7)=18/(18+x) (Substitute given values)
4. x=9 (Solve for x)
lmk if there are mistakes in my explanation, hope this helps :)
So to label the axes the number of people would be on the left and number of forks on the bottom. choosing your scale means how you would choose to count. the independent variable is the forks and dependent is the people. For the scale I would count by 2s for the x-axis and 1s for the y-axis.
