Answer:

Initial number of people in the line.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the expression that represents the number of people waiting for ticket in the line after x minutes is,

70-5(x)

Initially,

x = 0 minutes,

Thus, the initial number of people waiting for ticket in the line = 70 - 5(0) = 70

70 represents the starting amount of people in the line. For every minute, their is 5 less patrons. So let's say x equals 4.
70-5(4)
70-20
50
So in 4 minutes there will only be 50 people in the line. I hope this helps explain the entire equation, and the answer is 70 represents the starting amount of people in the line.

Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer:

It travel at the rate of <u>500 miles per hour</u>.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Ewans flight is scheduled to travel 1,750 miles in 3.5 hours.

Now, to find the rate it travel per hour.

Distance = 1,750 miles.

Time = 3.5 hours.

So, to get the rate we put formula:

Speed=\frac{distance}{time}

Speed=\frac{1750\ miles}{3.5\ hours}

Speed=500\ miles\ per\ hour

Therefore, it travel at the rate of 500 miles per hour.

Threatened monarch butterflies are monitored by measuring the area occupied by overwintering butterflies in Mexico. According to
Pani-rosa [81]

Answer:

14.2 hectares

Step-by-step explanation:

Fund Mexico, monarch butterflies occupied 1.13 hectares one recent winter, and 4.01 hectares the following winter (one year later)

The formula of Geometric growth

(Pt/ Po)^1/t

Where Pt = Size after t years = 4.01 hectares

Po = Initial size = 1.13

t = times = 1

=( 4.01/1.13 )^1/1

= 3.5486725664

Hence, Geometric growth rate = 3.5486725664.

It's size in hectares after another 1 year = Current size in hectares × Geometric growth rate

= 4.01 ×3.5486725664

= 14.230176991 hectares

≈ 14.2

Find the equation of the line parallel to y=2x+6 passing through (4,5)
ozzi

Answer:

y=2x-3

when two lines are parallel, they have the same slope.

in the formula y=mx+b, m=slope of the line

we know 2 will be the slope for the line passing through (4,5)

next plug in (4,5) into the formula with 2 as the slope

4=x 5=y

next 5=2(4)+b

and you end up with

y=2x-3 when you simplify

Answer the first word problem please! And show work
Travka [436]

Answer:

b= 9.17 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The 4 feet from the wall is the bottom part of the triangle. The 10 ft. ladder is the hypotenuse of the triangle. Use the Pythagorean Theorem and substitute the known values.

a^2+b^2=c^2

4^2+b^2=10^2

Then square all the known values

16+b^2=100

Then get b by itself

b^2=-16+100

add -16 and 100

b^2=84

and finally square root both sides of the equation

b=9.16515 ft or 9.17 ft
