Time it took Hector to complete 18 miles is given by 18 / 12 = 1.5 hours.

Let the time when Wanda will catch up to Hector be t, then, the distance covered by Hector at the time they meet is 18 + 12t and the distance covered by Wanda at the time they meet is 16t.

Then, 18 + 12t = 16t
16t - 12t = 18
4t = 18
t = 18 / 4 = 4.5

Therefore, Wanda will catch up with Hector after 4.5 hours.

Answer for brainliest
madam [21]

Answer:

c

Step-by-step explanation:

Negative 7 over 10 minus negative 2 over 10 = negative 5 over 10; therefore, the distance from A to B is absolute value of negative 5 over 10 equals 5 over 10 units.

the correct option is C.

(-7/10) - (-2/10)

then add -7/10 + 2/10 which will equal -5/10

Enter an inequality that represents the graph in the box.
mamaluj [8]

We know the y intercept is -6 and we know the slope is positive 4 (rise over run) so the equation is y=4x-6 if we plug in a shaded point (I would choose 0,0 for convenience reasons) 0=-6 since -6 is less than 0, the expression would be y≥4x-6

Someone please pass the answers to this
arsen [322]

Answer/Step-by-step explanation:

1. The figure is composed of a triangle and a rectangle.

Area of the triangle = ½*base*height

base = 4 ft

height = 12 - 8 = 4ft

Area of triangle = ½*4*4 = 8 ft²

Area of rectangle = length * width

Length = 8 ft

Width = 4 ft

Area of rectangle = 8*4 = 32 ft²

✔️Area of the figure = 8 + 32 = 40 ft²

2. The figure is composed of a semicircle and a triangle

Area of the semicircle = ½(πr²)

radius (r) = 3 cm

π = 3

Area = ½(3*3²) = 13.5 cm²

Area of triangle = ½*base*height

base = 3*2 = 6 cm

height = 6 cm

Area = ½*6*6 = 6 cm²

✔️Area of the figure = 13.5 + 6 = 19.5 cm²
