Answer: 8 1/3 hours or 500 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Keep in mind that there are 100 centimeters in a meter.

The snail moves at a pace of 12 cm/h, and needs to go 100 cm. You can just divide 100/12 to get 8 1/3, which is how many hours (groups of 12 cm) it takes for the snail to travel 100 cm (1 meter).

If necessary, you can also multiply 8 1/3 by 60 to get the number of minutes the snail takes. 8 times 60 is 480, and 1/3 of an hour is 20, so add 480+20 to get 500 minutes.

Consider the equation

earnstyle [38]

a) true

b) false

c) true

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>let's determine the first statement</h3><h3>to determine x-intercept </h3><h3>substitute y=0</h3>

so,

8x-2y=24

8x-2.0=24

8x=24

x=3

therefore

the first statement is <u>true</u>

let's determine the second statement

<h3>to determine y-intercept </h3><h3>substitute x=0</h3>

so,

8x-2y=24

8.0-2y=24

-2y=24

y=-12

therefore

the second statement is <u>False</u>

to determine the third statements

<h3>we need to turn the given equation into this form</h3><h2>y=mx+b</h2><h3>let's solve:</h3>

8x-2y=24

-2y=-8x+24

y=4x-12

therefore,

the third statement is also <u>true</u>
