If it takes a sloth 10 minutes to climb 7.5 feet what’s its climbing speed in miles per hour

Mathematics
1 answer:
qwelly [4]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

.009  miles/hour

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{7.5}{10}\frac{feet}{minutes} * \frac{1}{5280}   \frac{miles}{feet} *\frac{60}{1}\frac{minutes}{hour}

This is the method you should take with unit conversions in general, just set up fractions so the units cancel out, like the 7.5 feet cancels out with the feet in the 1/5280 so miles is left on top.

Plz help ITS NOT A LOT !!!!!! Plz help
padilas [110]

Answer: Actually, you must use the Pythagorean Theorem!

a squared plus b squared equals c squared. So if you substitute in the values, a is 2 units and b is three units. 2 squared is 4 and 3 squared is 9.

4 + 9 = 13 so the answer is the square root of 13. (√13)

What are the zeros of the function represented by the quadratic expression 2x^2-5x-3
emmasim [6.3K]
 2x2-5x-3=0 

Two solutions were found :

 x = -1/2 = -0.500

 x = 3

Step by step solution :

Step  1  :

Equation at the end of step  1  :

(2x2 - 5x) - 3 = 0

Step  2  :

Trying to factor by splitting the middle term

 2.1     Factoring  2x2-5x-3 

The first term is,  2x2  its coefficient is  2 .
The middle term is,  -5x  its coefficient is  -5 .
The last term, "the constant", is  -3 

Step-1 : Multiply the coefficient of the first term by the constant   2 • -3 = -6 

Step-2 : Find two factors of  -6  whose sum equals the coefficient of the middle term, which is   -5 .

What is the slope of the line graphed on the coordinate plane
Mice21 [21]

Answer:

The slope = 3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}  }{x_{2}-x_{1}  }

m=\frac{6-3}{2-(-2)}=\frac{6-3}{2+2}

m = 3/4

The hypotenuse of a 45°-45°-90° triangle measures 128 cm. A right triangle is shown. The length of the hypotenuse is 128 centime
Aleks [24]

Answer:

64√2 or 64 StartRoot 2 EndRoot

Step-by-step explanation:

A 45-45-90 traingle is a special traingle.  Let's say one of the leg of the triangle is x. The other one is also x because of the isosocles triangle theorem.  Therefore, using the pytagorean theorem, you find that x^2+x^2=c^2.  2(x)^2=c^2.  You then square root both sides and get c= x√2.  

Therefore, the two legs are x and the hypotenuse is x√2.  x√2=128 because the question says that the hypotenuse is 128.  Solve for x by dividing both sides by √2.  X=128/√2.  You rationalize it by multiplying the numberator and denominator of the fraction by √2.  √2*√2= 2.

X=(128√2)/2= 64√2 cm.

Since X is the leg, the answer would be 64√2
