Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Each longitude has a time difference of 4 minutes.

Convert 4 hours into minutes

4 hours * (60 minutes/1 hour) = 240 minutes

Divide 240 minutes by 4 to obtain the difference in longitude

240/4 = 60

The functions f(x) and g(x) are described below: f(x) = 7x + 9 g(x) = 7x −4 The graph of g(x) is obtained by shifting down the g

Slav-nsk [51]

Correct Answer:
Option A

Solution:

f(x) = 7x + 9
g(x) = 7x - 4

We can re-write g(x) as:

g(x) = 7x + 9 - 13

Since 7x+9 is equal to f(x), we can write:

g(x) = f(x) - 13

This relation shows that g(x) is obtained by shifting f(x) 13 units vertically down. So the correct answer is option A.

Answer:

The distance between the pirate and the treasure can be found from the following relationship between ΔEAF and ΔABC;

$\overline{AE}$ / $\overline{AB}$ = $\overline{FA}$ / $\overline{AC}$ = $\overline{EF}$ / $\overline{BC}$

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question diagram, we have two triangles, ΔEAF and ΔABC;

The ratio of the lengths of the sides $\overline{AE}$ / $\overline{AB}$ = $\overline{FA}$ / $\overline{AC}$

∠EAF and ∠BAC are vertical angles, therefore ∠EAF = ∠BAC

Therefore, ΔEAF and ΔABC are similar triangles by Side-Angle-Side, SAS, rule of similarity which states that two triangles that have ratios of a pair of their corresponding sides and the two sides also form equal angles within each triangle, then the two triangles are similar

Therefore, the ratio of the each pair of corresponding sides of the two triangles are equal

We have;

$\overline{AE}$ / $\overline{AB}$ = $\overline{FA}$ / $\overline{AC}$ = 50 ft. /(100 ft.) = $\overline{EF}$ / $\overline{BC}$ = $\overline{EF}$ /120 ft.

$\overline{EF}$ = 120 ft. × 50 ft./(100 ft.) = 60 ft.

$\overline{EF}$ = 60 ft.

The distance between the pirate and the treasure, $\overline{EF}$ = 60 ft.

3 Caleb claims that when you multiply a number by 10, you can just write a 0 at the right end of the number. Caleb gives the exa

devlian [24]

Answer:

They are both correct

Step-by-step explanation:

It's interpretation of the concept. In common practice multiplying by 10 means you add a zero and that's what we teach 10 year olds. But what does adding a zero mean? It means adding a place value and that's what you learn when you are

So in both examples just add a decimal:

2.0 x 10 = 20.

0.2 x 10 = 2.0

In conclusion, it depends on the level of precision required in the discussion and the level of maturity as to who is correct in their examples. If you are teaching 3rd graders math, by all means you add a zero. If you are discussing physics you are shifting over a place value.

An aquarium tank can hold 6300 liters of water. There are two pipes that can be used to fill the tank.The first pipe alone can f

liq [111]

Answer: it will take them 28 minutes to fill the tank.

Step-by-step explanation:

The first pipe alone can fill the tank in 84 minutes. This means that the rate at which the first pipe fills the tank per minute is 1/84

The second pipe can fill the tank in 42 minutes by itself. This means that the rate at which the second pipe fills the tank per minute is 1/42

If they work together, they would work simultaneously and their individual rates are additive. This means that their combined rate of filling the tank would be

1/84 + 1/42

Assuming it takes t hours for both pipes to fill the tank working together, the working rate per minute would be 1/t. Therefore,

1/84 + 1/42 = 1/t

3/84 = 1/t

t = 84/3

t = 28 minutes
