For this case we have the following conversions:

1 yard = 3 feet

The estimate distance Is:

400yd = 1200feet

200yd=600 feet

Ten, the estimate Is:

1200 + 600 = 1800 feet

The real distance Is:

The total distance in yards is given by:

440 + 220 = 660 yd

Then, let's transform this distance to feet, with the given conversion:

660 * 3 = 1980 feet

The distance traveled is reasonable for a person

Comparing the estimate and the actual answer, the distance malcom Ran Is reasonable.

Answer:

Malcolm ran 1980 feet.

The distance is reasonable.

440 x 3 = 1320

220 x 3 = 660

1320 + 660 = 1980, which is your answer.



440 is close to 400, so 400 x 3 = 1200

220 is close to 200, so 200 x 3 = 600

1200 + 600 = 1800



This is a reasonable estimate.

Gradient of a straight line that is perpendicular to y = 4x + 2
lana66690 [7]
If a line's slope is \frac{a}{b}, the slope of the perpendicular line is -\frac{b}{a}
in this case, the given line has a slope 4, which is 4/1, so the perpendicular line has a slope/gradient -\frac{1}{4}

Ms. Lynch has 21 coins in nickels and dimes.
bulgar [2K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:So we know x + y = 21 and 5x +10y = 165 We line them up in columns    x +   y =   21  5x +10y = 165 To eliminate the x variable, I'll multiply every element in the 1st equation by -5. -5x + -5y = -105  5x + 10y =  165 Now we combine (add) the equations, which eliminates x altogether.  5y = 60   ...   y = 12 From there, x + 12 = 21  ...  x = 21-12  ...  x = 9 You should double check.  Do 9 nickles and 12 dimes equal $1.65? A very important thing to remember using this method is to do the same thing to each element in the equation that you change! I hope that helps.

Well, for the first question, the answers will be (a) 13 per row, because 13*13=169, and (b) a square, because the dimensions will be 13x13.

Which exponential function goes through the points (1,8) and (4,64)?
vova2212 [387]
Plug in (4,64) into each answer choice.

A) 4(2)^x
64 =4(2)^4 
64 = 4(16) 
64 = 64

Answer choice A is correct.

B) f(x) = 2(4)^x
64 = 2(4)^4
64 = 2(256)
64 ≠ 512

Answer choice B is incorrect.

C) f(x) = 4(2)^{-x}
64 = 4(2)^{-4}
64 = 4(-0.0625)
64 ≠ 0.25

Answer choice C is incorrect.

D) f(x) = 2(4)^{-x}
64 = 2(4)^{-4}
64 = 2(0.00390625)
64 ≠ 0.0078125

Answer choice D is incorrect.


Your answer is B<span>) f(x)=2(4)^x</span>
