9/12 times 5 is 45/ 60 which is equal to 3/4 of a mile. I’m afraid I didn’t understand the question but I hope this helps.
1. C.
The rule of powers is that when a parenthesis is raised to a power, you multiply the two numbers. Since it is being raised to the second power, it needs to have a 10 in the parenthesis. That would make 20.
2. B
Firstly 10^2 = 100, so we know that the number must be 10. That leaves us with just A and B. Then we know the same thing from the previous equation, that they need to be multiplied together.
Question 1:
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Find Slope
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Equation: y = 5x - 2
Slope = 5
Slope of parallel line = 5
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Insert slope into the general equation y = mx + c
--------------------------------------------------------------------
y = 5x + c
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Find y-intercept
--------------------------------------------------------------------
At point (2, -1)
y = 5x + c
-1 = 5(2) + c
c = -1 - 10
c = -11
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Insert y-intercept into the equation
--------------------------------------------------------------------
y = 5x + c
y = 5x - 11
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Answer: y = 5x - 11
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Question 2:
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Find Slope
--------------------------------------------------------------------
y = 9x
Slope = 9
Slope of the parallel line = 9
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Insert slope into the equation y = mx + c
--------------------------------------------------------------------
y = 9x + c
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Find y-intercept
--------------------------------------------------------------------
y = 9x + c
At point (0, 5)
5 = 9(0) + c
c = 5
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Insert y-intercept into the equation
--------------------------------------------------------------------
y = 9x + c
y = 9x + 5
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Answer: y = 9x + 5
--------------------------------------------------------------------
It will go in it 9 times cause 9*20=180
