We'll take 1.25 miles as one minute (x) and take 100 as total distance (D) while T is the time it took to reach that distance.
T = D/x
putting the values in
T = 100/1.25
T = 80
80 minutes is the answer.

If the angles of a traingle are in the ratio 2:3:4 , Find Them

DedPeter [7]

Answer:

40°, 60°, and 80°

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the sum of the angles of a triangle is equal to 180°.

We can use this equation to solve for these angles:

180 = 2x + 3x + 4x

180 = 9x

20 = x

Then substitute the solution in for x to solve for the angles:

2(20) = 40°

3(20) = 60°

4(20) = 80°

Therefore, the angles are 40°, 60°, and 80°.

Find the equation of a line that passes through (-5,4) and us parallel to y=-6/7x+3

irina [24]

Given:

The given equation of line is

$y=-\dfrac{6}{7}x+3$

To find:

The equation of line that passes through (-5,4) and is parallel to the given line.

Solution:

Slope intercept form of a line is

$y=mx+b$ ...(i)

where, m is slope and b is y-intercept.

We have,

$y=-\dfrac{6}{7}x+3$ ...(ii)

On comparing (i) and (ii), we get

$m=-\dfrac{6}{7}$

Slope of given line is $m=-\dfrac{6}{7}$ .

Slope of parallel lines are same. So, slope of parallel line is $m=-\dfrac{6}{7}$ .

The required line passes through (-5,4) with slope $m=-\dfrac{6}{7}$ . So, the equation of line is

$y-y_1=m(x-x_1)$

$y-4=-\dfrac{6}{7}(x-(-5))$

$y-4=-\dfrac{6}{7}(x+5)$

$y-4=-\dfrac{6}{7}x-\dfrac{30}{7}$

Adding 4 on both sides, we get

$y=-\dfrac{6}{7}x-\dfrac{30}{7}+4$

$y=-\dfrac{6}{7}x+\dfrac{-30+28}{7}$

$y=-\dfrac{6}{7}x-\dfrac{2}{7}$

Therefore, the correct option is a.
