Let us assume that the time taken by the category 3 hurricane to travel from Cuba to Key West = X minutes
Speed of the category 3 hurricane is given as 20.88 km/hr
So the category 3 hurricane can travel 20.88 km in 1 hour.
The distance between Cuba and Key West = 145 km
Then
20.88 km is travelled by the category 3 hurricane in = 60 minutes
145 km from Cuba to Key west is travelled by the category 3 hurricane in = X minutes
So,
X = [(145 * 60)/20.88] minutes
   = 416.66 minutes
   = 17 hours and 36 minutes
Time taken by the category 3 hurricane to reach Key West from Cuba is 17 hours and 36 minutes.

A ramp slopes from a warehouse door down to the street. The height of the ramp is 5 feet, and the ramp ends 10 feet from the bas
Tomtit [17]
If you graph this, your first point will be at (0,5), as the ramp is at the warehouse door but 5 feet up. The second point is (10,0) as it is touching the ground but it's 10 feet away from the warehouse.
To find slope, you do (y2-y1)/(x2-x1).
When substituting in the variables, you get (0-5)/(10-0), which is -5/10, which is simplified to -1/2. Of course, that is when the warehouse is Quadrant II. If you look at it from another point of view, the slope will be positive so your answer is A) 1/2.
