Answer:

The distance is equivalent to 800 rods and 2200 fathoms.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The distance of the Kentucky Derby in furlongs is 20 furlongs.

Now, in order to convert the distance in rods and fathoms, we use the conversion factor for each.

We know that,

1 furlong = 40 rods.

Therefore, the conversion factor is \frac{40\ rods}{1\ furlong}

So, 20 furlongs is equivalent to rods =20\ furlongs\times \frac{40\ rods}{1\ furlong}=800\ rods

Therefore, 20 furlongs is equivalent to 800 rods.

Now, we also know that,

1 furlong = 110 fathoms

So, the conversion factor is \frac{110\ fathoms}{1\ furlong}

So, 20 furlongs is equivalent to rods =20\ furlongs\times \frac{110\ fathoms}{1\ furlong}=2200\ fathoms

Therefore, 20 furlongs is equivalent to 2200 fathoms.

Solve the equation 12x-14=4x+10​
ziro4ka [17]

Answer:

x=3

Step-by-step explanation:

12x-14=4x+10​

Subtract 4x from each side

12x-4x-14=4x-4x+10​

8x - 14 = 10

Add 14 to each side

8x - 14+14 = 10+14

8x = 24

Divide each side by 8

8x/8 = 24/8

x = 3

I need help pls due tomorrow pls I just need part B done plsss
lara [203]

Part A

1 day = 1/4 hours of practice

7 days = 7/4 hours of practice (multiply both sides by 7)

1 week = 7/4 hours of practice

1 week = (4+3)/4 hours of practice

1 week = (4+3)/4 hours of practice

1 week = (4/4)+(3/4) hours of practice

1 week = 1+(3/4) hours of practice

1 week = 1 & 3/4 hours of practice

side note: 1 & 3/4 = 1.75

=======================================

Part B

Take the result from part A, and multiply it with 60

So we'll have 60 times 1&3/4 on the left side on the first line, then 60*(1+3/4) on the right side of this same line.

The rest of the lines look like this

(60*1) + (60*3/4)

60 + 60*3/4

60 + 180/4

60 + 45

Describe how the graph of g(x) is related to the parent function f(x).
Nataly [62]

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

Given f(x) then f(x) + c is a vertical translation of f(x)

• If c > 0 then a shift up of c units

• If c < 0 then a shift down of c units

Here f(x) = 4x and g(x) = 4x - 2

That is g(x) is the graph of f(x) shifted 2 units down
