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

Helllppp i will give you brainliest if you can help meeeeeeeee
Alja [10]

Answer:

20 square meters

Step-by-step explanation:

To do this continue the line of the top of the rectangle so you split the figure into a triangle and a rectangle. The dimensions of the rectangle would be 8 by 2, so 8 * 2 = 16. Next, the dimensions of the triangle would be (4 - 2) by (8 - 4) = 2 by 4. The area would then be 2 * 4 = 8/2 = 4.

All you have to do now is add those two areas together, 16 + 4 = 20 square meters.

Alexei wants to hang a mirror in his boat, and put a frame around it. The mirror and frame must have an area of 19.25 square fee
Drupady [299]
<span>The first part is already in squared terms. "19.25 sq ft" Taking the measurements for the mirror 3ft and 5ft, you'd get: "15 sq ft." Subtract that answer from the previous number to get "4.25 sq ft.

Hope this helps out a little lol :)</span>
