A. T= d/r
A good way to remember this is by making a pyramid with 3 parts and putting distance at the top and rate and time in the other two parts. This way you can visibly see the equation and use it if you need to find one for rate.

B. It's reasonable to write distance as a positive number because distance is always positive. You are not able to have a negative distance. Imagine someone standing on a side walk. Even if they are not moving, their distance is 0 which is positive. If they move backwards or forwards, their distance is still positive because it is more than that 0 and they are gaining something. 

C. Just plug in the numbers into the formula.
T= d/r
T= 32.12 m /<span>8.8 m/min
T= 3.65 min

24 is what percent of 32
Airida [17]

Answer:

24 is 75% of 32

Step-by-step explanation:

Work out the equation of<br> the line that goes through<br> (3, 2) and (-1, 10)
Natali5045456 [20]

Answer:

The\,\,equation\,\,will\,\,be\,\,2x+y=8

Step-by-step explanation:

Let, A=(3,2)

      B=(-1,10)

So, The equation will be

\frac{x-x_{1} }{x_{1} -x_{2} } =\frac{y-y_{1} }{y_{1} -y_{2} } \\=>\frac{x-3 }{3-(-1) } =\frac{y-2 }{2-10} \\=>\frac{x-3 }{4} =\frac{y-2 }{-8}\\=>-8x+24=4y-8\\=>8x+4y=32\\=>2x+y=8

Hope you have understood this.....            

ask me if you have any confusion.....
