The approximate distance in miles between Los Angeles and a commercial jet flying from Boston to Los Angeles can be found using

the function m=-475t+2,650, where t is the number of hours the jet has been flying. Which number of hours and minutes is closest to the amount of time that the jet has been flying if the jet is 1,500 miles from Los Angeles?
A.) 2 hours and 25 minutes
B.) 8 hours and 44 minutes
C.) 3 hours and 16 minutes
D.) 9 hours and 13 minutes

You're given the value of m so you plug that in the equation given to get 1500=-475t+2650. Now with some algebra just solve it for t! so subtract 2650 and get -1150=-475t. Now divide by -475 and get 2.4. Now the t value is already in hours, so there's no conversions, and the closest answer is A! This makes sense because it's an approximation :)

0. The weight of an object on the Moon is about 16.5% of its weight on Earth. The weight of an astronaut on the Moon is 24.75 po
Setler79 [48]

Answer: 150 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the the astronaut weight on Earth be represented by x.

Based on the information given in the question, thus can be formed into an equation as:

16.5% of x = 24.75

16.5% × x = 24.75

16.5/100 × x = 24.75

0.165x = 24.75

x = 24.75/0.165

x = 150 pounds

The astronaut weigh 150 pounds on Earth.

Ms. Lady works-out with Ms. Beetle; her average crawling time has increased to 4 feet per minute, while Ms. Beetle, who is used
ira [324]

Answer:

Senn needs to give Ms. Lady 4.6 minutes  head start

Senn needs to give Ms. Beetle 18.4 minutes  head start

The equation for each bug are;

For Senn, the equation for the experiment is 5 × t₁ = 92 feet

For Ms. Lady, the equation for the experiment is 4 × (t₁ + 4.6) = 92 feet

For Ms. Beetle , the equation for the experiment is 4 × (t₁ + 18.4) = 92 feet

Please find attached the required graph and table of values

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters are;

The average crawling time of Ms. Lady = 4 feet per minute

The average crawling time of Ms. Beetle = 2.5 feet per minute

The average crawling time of Senn = 5 feet per minute

The distance to the rose bush = 92 feet

Therefore, we have;

The time, t, duration for Senn to arrive at the Rose bush is given by the following relation,

Time, t = Distance, d/(Speed, s)

Given that the speed of the bugs is equal to their average crawling time, we have

For Senn

Time, t = 92/(5 ft/Min) = 18.4 minutes

For, Ms. Lady

Time, t = 92/(4 ft/Min) = 23 minutes

For, Ms. Beetle

t = 92/(2.5 ft/Min) = 36.8 minutes

Therefore;

Senn needs to give Ms. Lady 23 - 18.4 = 4.6 minutes head start

Similarly, Senn needs to give Ms. Beetle 36.8 - 18.4 = 18.4 minutes  head start

The equation for each bug are therefore;

For Senn, the equation for the experiment is given as follows ;

5 × t₁ = 92 feet

For Ms. Lady, the equation for the experiment is given as follows;

4 × (t₁ + 4.6) = 92 feet

For Ms. Beetle , the equation for the experiment is given as follows;

4 × (t₁ + 18.4) = 92 feet.
