If (a,b) is an ordered pair for x-y=5, is (b,a) also a solution?

1 answer:

5 0

The answer is no. Because solution (a,b) means x=a, y=b.and we have a-b=5. And (b,a) would mean x=b and y=a but then x-y=b-a=-(a-b)=-5≠5. So the pair (b,a) is not a solution.

pashok25 [27]

Answer:

11 seconds.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Lainey is sliding down a water slide that is 484 feet long at a rate of 44 feet per second.

Question asked:

How long will it take Lainey to travel from the top to the bottom of the slide?

Solution:

Lainey is sliding down a water slide that is 484 feet long, we will assume it as distance traveled.

Lainey is sliding down a water slide at a rate of 44 feet per second, we will assume it as speed.

As here asking the time taken to travel from top to bottom, we will find it by using:-

$Speed=\frac{Distance}{Time} \\\\ Time=\frac{Distance}{Speed}$

$=\frac{484}{44} \\\\ =11\ seconds$

Therefore, it will take Lainey 11 seconds to travel from the top to the bottom of the slide.
