A puppy and kitten are 180 meters apart when they see each other. The puppy can run at a speed of 25 meters per second, while th

Gnom [1K]

It seems it should be the other way... . How soon will the puppy catch up with the kitten.

The way you have it the kitten will never catch the pup. There is already 180m between them so, the distance will only increase because the puppy runs faster than the cat.

If the puppy runs after the cat, will eventually catch up with it and can be calculated. Not the other way around.

If the pup runs after the cat, the distance between them will decrease and the pup will catch the cat.

RT = D kitten

RT = D+180 puppy

20T = D

25T = D + 180

Substitution

25T = 20T +180

5T = 180

T = 36s

6 9/10 x 20/21<br> Simplify your answer completely and change to a mixed number.

Sidana [21]

Answer:

$6\frac{4}{7}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello,

I am going to start with to change to a improper fraction:

1. I will convert 6 and 9/10 into a improper fraction:

$69/10$

2. Now that I have converted the mixed fraction into a improper I can multiply the numerator and the denominator.

$69 * 20 / 21 * 10 = 1380/210$

3. Now I can simplify this value and convert it into a mixed fraction

$46/7$

After further simplifying I can convert this into an mixed number

$6\frac{4}{7}$

A line passes through the points (–1, –5) and (4, 5). The point (a, 1) is also on the line.

IgorC [24]

Answer:

a = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's find the equation of the line using the 2 points given.

Let's call -1 as x_1 and -5 as y_1

also, 4 as x_2 and 5 as y_2

The equation of line is :

$y-y_1=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}(x-x_1)$

<em>Let's plug the points and get the equation of the line:</em>

$y-y_1=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}(x-x_1)\\y+5=\frac{5+5}{4+1}(x+1)\\y+5=2(x+1)\\y+5=2x+2\\y=2x-3$

Now, to find a, we substitute a in x and 1 in y of the equation of the line we just got:

$y=2x-3\\1=2(a)-3\\1=2a-3\\2a=4\\a=\frac{4}{2}=2$
