After the police track the monkey and his kidnapper for a while, something changes. After one hour, the location is 32 miles awa

y from the zoo. But after 70 minutes, or 7/6 hours, the location is still 32 miles away. Write an equation in point-slope form that represents the distance of the monkey and kidnapper, assuming they are still traveling in a linear pattern.
Enter your answer as an equation in point-slope form.

Let <span>distance of the monkey and kidnapper from zoo be y in miles and time be x in minutes,

When x=60 (one hour), y = 32; when x=70, y= 32 as well.

Assuming they are traveling in a linear patter,

y = m*x  +  c where m is the traveling speed and c is the initial distance when t is 0

subsitituting 32 = 60m + c and 32 = 70m + c

solving the two unknowns, m = 0 and c = 32

so in point slope form, the equation becomes (x - 32)/(y - 60) = 0

olga2289 [7]

Answer:

300+400+500=1200

Step-by-step explanation:

given total paid $2400

spend $1200 on a rent (half of his paid)

so rest he spend as a ratio of 3:4:5=1200

let x as a amount he using to pays rest of the bills so

3x+4x+5x=1200

12x=1200

x=1200/12

x=100

so he spends 3x=300

4x=400

5x=500

hope it helps you

Of the students in the college, 60% of the students reside in the hostel and 40% of the students are day scholars. Previous year
Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

the probability that the student is a hostlier is 0.6923

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the probability that the student is a hostlier is shown below

= (0.60 × 0.30) ÷ (0.60 × 0.30) + (0.40 × 0.20)

= (0.18) ÷ (0.18 + 0.8)

= (0.18) ÷ (0.26)

= 0.6923

Hence the probability that the student is a hostlier is 0.6923
