A scientist finds the distances d that two snakes travel in a time of t seconds. the equation 16t = d represents the relationshi

p for the black mamba. the equation 1.5t = d represents the relationship for he rought-scaled snake. graph each equation. which is steeper? what does that tell you about how fast the two snakes are?

From the equation given, the time for the black mamba snake to cover distance d, will be d/16 while that for the the rought-scaled snake would be d/1.5.
Assume that the distance covered by both snakes is 200 meters;
Then, 
Time taken by the black mamba is 200/16  = 12.5 seconds, and
Time taken by the rought-scaled snake is 200/1.5 = 133.33 seconds
Clearly the black mamba is faster at 12.5 seconds compared with the rought-scaled snake.

If the endpoints of the diameter of a circle are (−8, −6) and (−4, −14), what is the standard form equation of the circle? A) (x
Andrei [34K]

Answer:

\large\boxed{A.\ (x+6)^2+(y+10)^2=20}

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard form of an equation of a circle:

(x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2

(h, k) - center

r - radius

We have the endpoints of the diameter of a circle (-8, -6) and (-4, -14).

The midpoint of a diameter is a center of a circle.

The formula of a midpoint:

\left(\dfrac{x_1+x_2}{2},\ \dfrac{y_1+y_2}{2}\right)

Substitute:

x=\dfrac{-8+(-4)}{2}=\dfrac{-12}{2}=-6\\\\y=\dfrac{-6+(-14)}{2}=\dfrac{-20}{2}=-10

We have h = -6 and k = -10.

The radius is the distance between a center and the point on a circumference of a circle.

The formula of a distance between two points:

d=\sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}

Substitute (-6, -10) and (-8, -6):

r=\sqrt{(-8-(-6))^2+(-6-(-10))^2}=\sqrt{(-2)^2+4^2}=\sqrt{4+16}=\sqrt{20}

Finally we have

(x-(-6))^2+(y-(-10))^2=(\sqrt{20})^2\\\\(x+6)^2+(y+10)^2=20

If 0.9x-1.3=-3.1, what is the value of x-0.8?
Butoxors [25]
−<span>2.8
</span>Okay so "0.9x-1.3=-3.1" x=-2
 
<span><span><span>0.9x</span>−1.3</span>=<span>−3.1

</span></span>add 1.3 to both sides

<span><span><span><span>0.9x</span>−1.3</span>+1.3</span>=<span><span>−3.1</span>+1.3

</span></span><span><span>0.9x</span>=<span>−1.8

</span></span>divide both sides by 0.9

<span><span><span>0.9x/</span>0.9</span>=<span><span>−1.8/</span><span>0.9

</span></span></span>x=<span>−2</span>

So if you plug in -2 into "x-0.8" you get −2.8

<span>=<span><span>−2</span>−0.8

</span></span><span>=<span><span>−2-</span><span>0.8

</span></span></span><span>=<span>−2.8

</span></span>Hope this helps.
