Step-by-step explanation:

For this problem, we are asked to find the unit rate. The unit rate is the amount of something when it's a singular substance. Knowing this, we can divide 24 into 2500 to find out how many calories are burned in just one hour.

2500 ÷ 24 = 104.17

So, your unit rate would be...

104.17 calories = 1 hour

Write a linear function ff with f(4)=−3f(4)=−3 and f(0)=−2f(0)=−2

Nonamiya [84]

<span>The line goes through the points (4,-3) and (0,-2), so its gradient is (-2-(-3))/(0-4) = -1/4. The y-intercept is -2 because f(0)=-2. So the equation of the line is y = -1/4 x - 2.This can be represented by the linear function f(x) = (-1/4)x - 2. The composite function ff is given by ff(x) = f(-1/4 x - 2) = (-1/4)((-1/4)x - 2) - 2 = x/16 - 3/2.</span>

A drawbridge rises at a rate of 3 2/3 feet per minute. The drawbridge rises to a height of 50 feet. How long does it take the dr

k0ka [10]

Answer: Third option.

Step-by-step explanation:

You know that the drawbridge rises at a rate of $3\ \frac{2}{3}$ feet per minute. This means that the drawbridge rises $3\ \frac{2}{3}$ in a minutes.

Convert from mixed fraction to decimal number:

$3\ \frac{2}{3}\ ft=(3+0.66)\ ft=3.6\ ft$

Since the drawbridge rises to a height of 50 feet, you need to apply this procedure in order to find the time the drawbridge takes to completely rise:

$time=\frac{(1\ min)(50\ ft)}{3.66\ ft}=13.6\ min$ or $13\ \frac{7}{11}\ min$
