Answer:
1.1 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
Step one:
John swims a distance of 5/12 miles
time taken = 3/8 of an hour
Required
The speed with which John swims
Step two:
speed= distance/time
substituting we have
speed= 5/12/3/8
multiply the numerator by the inverse of the denominator
speed= 5/12*8/3
speed= 40/36
speed= 1.1 mph
The third one, this is because you take your y2 and y1 values (y2=0 and y1=9 because these are the two y values given to you from each coordinate) and subtract 0-9. then you do the same, but with the x2 and x1 values. so your x1 value is 3 and your x2 value is 0, so you subtract 0 from 3. divide your second answer from the first answer, to get a gradient of -1/3 x. now using the first coordinate (0,9) you know that the y coordinate is 9. as the x value =0, we know that the line is passing through the y axis at 9 so 9 is your y intercept. this gives you the equation -1/3x+9. hope this helped and wasn't too confusing!
N is the variable I believe.
Answer:
<em>x = 62°, y = 103°</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Supplementary Angles</u>
Two angles are called <em>supplementary</em> when their measures add up to 180 degrees.
The image shows two pairs of supplementary angles. We have to find the value of the unknown variable.
The first drawing shows supplementary angles x and 118°. They must satisfy the equation:
x + 118° = 180°
Subtracting 118°:
x = 180° - 118°
x = 62°
From the second drawing, we set up the equation:
y + 77° = 180°
Subtracting 77°:
y = 180° - 77°
y = 103°
