Answer:

1) Distance in feet equals 1640.4 feet

2) Distance in miles equals 0.3107 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the basic conversion factors we know that

1 meter = 3.2808 feet

Thus by proportion we conclude that

500meters=500\times 3.2808feet\\\\\therefore 500meters=1640.4feet

Similarly using the basic conversion factors we know that

1 mile = 1609.34 meters

thus we conclude that 1 meter =\frac{1}{1609.34} miles

Hence by proportion 500 meters = 500\times \frac{1}{1609.34}=0.3107 miles

vova2212 [387]

Answer:  D) Number of yards Jerry cuts; 0 ≤ x ≤ 10  

Step-by-step explanation:

Here the given function that describes the total profit,

y = 15 x - 10

Where x represents the number of lawns Jerry cut in a week.

But, Depending homework and chores, he has time to cut at most 10 lawns a week.

Thus, x ≤ 10

Also, the number of lawns can not be negative.

Therefore, x ≥ 0

And, the value of x will decide the domain of the function y,

Thus, the domain of the given function is,

0 ≤ x ≤ 10

⇒ Option D is correct.
