Answer:

It will take Lin an hour and 25 minutes at her constant speed, and it will take Jada at her constant speed an hour and 30 minutes.

SO, Lin will arrive at 4:25

and Jada will arrive at 4:30

There is a 5 minute difference in time.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the facts given, Lin can walk 13 miles in 5 hours which when you divide means she can walk 2.6 mph (miles per hour), and Jada can walk 2.5 mph.

To get these answers you divide the current speeds into the total distance

For example, in Lin's case...

3.25 (The 3 and 1/4 mile converted to decimal form)

2.6 (Lin's Average speed per hour)

3.25/2.6=1.25

1.25 (1 hour and 25 minutes)

Mutleys journey began on a boat, 2 feet above sea level. He dove down to twelve feet below sea level and then returned to the su
Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

Mutley would start at 2 feet above sea level or +2, he would then travel 12 feet below sea level (-12) to then return to the surface of the ocean (0).  The integers from least to greatest:  -12, 0, 2.  Visual:

-12(dive level) * * * * * * * * * * * 0(sea level) * 2(boat)

Step-by-step explanation:

Using positive and negative integers, we can determine Mutleys journey above, below and at the surface of the ocean.  The surface of the ocean represents his 'origin' or starting point, which is 0.  The boat is above the surface or +2.  When Mutley dives below the surface, he is at a negative level of the ocean.  Think of it in terms of a number line - negative numbers are to the left of 0 and positive numbers are to the right of 0.  The further we go to the left on the number line, the lower our number.  In this case, -12 would be furthest to the left, then 0, followed by 2.

A bag contains 6 red tiles, 8 blue tiles, and 6 green tiles. A tile is drawn, the color recorded, and then the tile placed back
tester [92]

Answer:

9 red tiles


Step-by-step explanation:


Total number of tiles: 6+8+6=20

Total number of red tiles: 6


Probability of getting red in one draw:  \frac{6}{20}=0.3

<em>This means that you would expect to get red 0.3  or 30% of the times.</em>

<em>Hence, when you draw tiles 30 times from the bag, you would expect red to be picked 30% of 30 times. This is:</em>

<em>0.3*30=9</em>

So, you would expect to draw a red tile from the bag 9 times.

a cold wave hit chicago when the temperature hit 62 f during the cold wave the temperature dropped 2 degrees every hour how many
Vladimir [108]
We start at 62 Fahrenheit. And every hour we drop two degrees. We want to know how long it took for the temperature to drop to 40 Fahrenheit.

If one hour passed, then the temperature dropped two degrees.
If two hours passed, then the temperature dropped 4 degrees.

See the pattern? We can define this as 2h. Where h represents time in hours.
We subtract 2h from 62. 

We can write this as a function. F(h) = 62 - 2h.
Where F is the temperature in Fahrenheit. And h is the hour(s).

Now that we have the formula, let's plug in the value 40 Fahrenheit to see how long it took for the temperature to drop to 40 degrees.

40 = 62 - 2h
Subtract 62 from each side

-22 = -2h
Divide both sides by 2

h = 11

So, it took 11 hours for the temperature to drop to 40 Fahrenheit.

1. y=900(1.27)^x
Sophie [7]

Answer:

The initial value is 900

It is experiencing exponential growth by 27%

Step-by-step explanation:

Exponential functions are in the form y=a(b)^x, where a is the initial value, b is the multiplier, and x is the input, such as how many years past a certain date.

Exponential growth is when the multiplier is above 1.00, or above 100%, because b is determined by 1 + r if you have exponential growth, or 1 - r if you have exponential decay. You will never use negatives with exponential decay.
