Answer:

Each lap took him 48 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Pierce swims 10 laps in 8 minutes.

Let the amount of time he spent for each lap = t minutes.

Then, since each lap takes equal time, the total time taken for 10 laps = 10t minutes.

But, it is given that the total time taken for 10 laps = 8 minutes.

Therefore,

10t = 8

Divide both sides by 10.

t = 0.8 minutes or

t = 48 seconds

I need help with #18,20,22 and 24. Please show your work and I'm really thankful for your help as soon as possible!
Artist 52 [7]
I'll start 18 and 22 for you, and you should then be able to do the rest on your own!

For 18, what we literally do is apply the distance formula for all the points and add them up. For B to C, we get the distance between them to be
sqrt((x1-x2)^2+(y1-y2)^2)=sqrt((0-4)^2+(3-(-1))^2)=sqrt((-4)^2+4^2)=sqrt(16+16)=sqrt(32). Repeat the process for C to E, E and F, and F to B then add the results up to get your answer!

For 22, since the area of a rectangle is length*width (we know given the right angles and that the opposite sides are equal in how long they are), we can multiply 2 perpendicular lines, for example, BC and CE to get sqrt(32)*sqrt(8)=16 as the area

a veterinarian needs to know animals weight in kilograms. if 20 pounds is about 9 kilograms and a dog weights 30 pounds, use a r
ahrayia [7]

For this case we have the following conversion:

20 pounds = 9 kilograms

To use the table what we must do is find another relationship that allows us to find the weight in kilograms for 30 pounds.

For example, half the weight in pounds is half the weight in kilograms.

Therefore, the given conversion is:

10 pounds = 4.5 kilograms

So, for 30 pounds, we multiply this last ratio obtained by three on both sides:

30 pounds = 13.5 kilograms

Then, the table is:

Pounds 10 20 30

kilograms 4.5 9 13.5

Answer:

Using the ratio table the dogs weight is:

30 pounds = 13.5 kilograms

Which statement is NOT true about the slope of a straight-line graph?
soldi70 [24.7K]

Answer:

Option D. Slope is 1 if the line is vertical

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

Part A)  Slope is a measure of the steepness of the line

The statement is true

Because, the steepness of a line is measured by the absolute value of the slope.

Part B) Slope is the ratio of vertical change to horizontal change

The statement is true

Because the formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to

m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}

so

Is the ratio of vertical change to horizontal change

Part C) Slope is zero if the line is horizontal

The statement is true

Because If the line is horizontal, the y-coordinate of two points is the same

therefore

The vertical change is equal to zero

Part D) Slope is 1 if the line is vertical

The statement is Not true

Because, if the line is vertical the slope is undefined
