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

PLEASE HELP ITS DUE BY MIDNIGHT I HAVE LIKE 30 MINS!!! The linear regression for this print-out relates the amount of oxygen in
dezoksy [38]

Answer:

Please check explanations

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to interpret the meaning of the slope

The slope generally refers to the change in y values with corresponding change in x value

with respect to this question, we can see that the slope is negative

What this mean is that the rate of change in the level of oxygen measured in liters is decreasing with an increase in the time

This means that as more time elapses, more oxygen is used up leading to a decrease in the liters of oxygen present

To the nearest tenth of a degree, find the sizes of the acute angles in the 7-24-25 right
fiasKO [112]
First of all, just to avoid being snookered by a trick question, we should verify that these are really right triangles:

7² + 24² really is 25² , and 8² + 15² really is 17² , so we're OK there.

In the first one:
sin(one acute angle) = 7/25 = 0.28
the angle = sin⁻¹ (0.28)  =  16.26°
the other acute angle = (90° - 16.26°)  = 73.74° 

In the second one:
sin(one acute angle) = 8/17 = 0.4706...
the angle = sin⁻¹  (0.4706...)  =  28.07°
the other acute angle =  (90° - 28.07°) = 61.93°


I'm sorry, but just now, I don't know how to do the 
third triangle in the question.
