Answer:

No I dont agree with Mai. As both the slug and snail are moving with constant speed.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

A slug travels 3 centimeters in 3 seconds.

Speed of slug = distance/ time = 3/3 = 1 cms^-1

A slug travels 3 centimeters in 3 seconds.

Speed of snail = distance/ time = 6/6 = 1 cms^-1

Hence both have constant speeds only the time span for snail is increased which gives more distance it doesn't means that it had covered more distance.

i hope it will help you!

Answer: There are 104 silvery minnow population in the Rio Grande River.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of tagged silvery minnows = 54

Number of captured silvery minnows = 62

It includes 12 tagged silvery minnows.

So, Number of silvery minnows without tags = 62 -12 =50

So, Good estimate of the silvery minnow population in the Rio Grande River would be

54+50\\\\=104

Hence, there are 104 silvery minnow population in the Rio Grande River.

a 32 foot ladder is leaned against a wall. if the base of the ladder is 8 feet from the wall, how high up the wall will the ladd
Leno4ka [110]

Answer:

31 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The length of ladder, leaned against wall= 32 foot

           The base of ladder is 8 feet away from wall

Adjacent= 8 feet and Hypotenuse= 32 foot

we need to find height of wall till the ladder reach (Opposite).

We will use Pythagorean theorem; hypotenuse^{2} = adjacent^{2} +opposite^{2}

⇒32^{2} = 8^{2} +opposite^{2}

⇒1024= 64+opposite^{2}

subtracting both side by 64

⇒ Opposite^{2} = 1024-64= 960

⇒Opposite= \sqrt{960} = 30.98 ≅ 31 ft

∴ 31 ft high up the wall.
