Make two equations representing the position of each animal, p and k, for the puppy and kitten respectively.
p=25t and k=180+20t
The puppy will catch the kitten when p=k so we can say:
25t=180+20t subtract 20t from both sides
5t=180 divide both sides by 5
t=36
So the puppy will catch the kitten after 36 seconds.
Answer:
y = - 10x - 6
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
Here slope m = - 10, hence
y = - 10x + c ← is the partial equation
To find c substitute (- 1, 4) into the partial equation
4 = 10 + c ⇒ c = 4 - 10 = - 6
y = - 10x - 6 ← equation of line
Answer:
3 3/4
Step-by-step explanation:
1 mile * 5280 ft * 12 in = 63360 in
There are 63360 inches in one mile
