Complete Question
A bee flies at 9 feet per second directly to a flowerbed from its hive. The bee stays at the flowerbed for 13 minutes, and then flies directly back to the hive at 6 feet per second. It is away from the hive for a total of 16 minutes. What equation can you use to find the distance of the flowerbed from the hive?
Answer:
The equation is
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question we are told that
The velocity of the bee is
The duration on the flowerbed is
The velocity back to his hive is
The total time away from it hive is
Now let assume the distance of the flower bed from the hive is Z
Generally the time taken for the bee to travel to the flower bed from its hive is
The time taken for the bee to fly back to his hive is
Generally the total time the bee spent outside of his house is mathematically represented as

The area of the smallest side of the right triangle is 25 ft².
<h3>What is a right-angle triangle?</h3>A triangle having two sides at an angle of 90 degrees is called the right-angle triangle.
Note:- The figure is missing in the question I am attaching the complete figure with the answer below for calculation.
Given that:-
The hypotenuse = 169 ft ² = 13 ft
The side with area 144 ft² = 12 ft
Using Pythagoras' identity to find the third side x ( smallest )
x² + 12² = 13²
x² + 144 = 169 ( subtract 144 from both sides )
x² = 25 ( take the square root of both sides )
x = 5
Thus the area of the smallest side will be calculated as:-
A = 5²
A = 25 ft²
Therefore the area of the smallest side of the right triangle is 25 ft².
