m/s is meters per second.

1 minute = 60 seconds.

2.5 minutes x 60 seconds = 150 seconds total.

150 seconds x 3.4 meters per second = 510 meters total.

The Squirrel runs at 3.4 meters per second.

You are trying to solve for the distance in 2.5 minutes.

Note that there are 60 seconds in 1 minute. Multiply 2.5 with 60

2.5 x 60 = 150

There is 150 seconds in 2.5 minutes

Next, multiply 3.4 minutes with 150 seconds

150 x 3.4 = 510

The Squirrel ran 510 meters in 2.5 minutes

hope this helps

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

So that is a 90 degree angle and there is an angle of 30. 30-90 is 60. 60 divided by 4 is 15. So thus the answer is A,15.

At the dog park, 2 dogs are black with spots, 5 dogs are white with spots, 1 dog is solid white, and 4 dogs are solid black. Wha

Nikolay [14]

Its 11/12 , you need to divide the "wanted results" (every dog which is either black, with spots or both ) by every every possible result ( all dogs ). so 11/12=0.92

A line goes through the points (4,16) Ana (7,19). Write a linear function rule in terms of x and y for this line

Eva8 [605]

Linear function rule in terms of x and y for this line is y = x + 12

Solution:

Given that a line goes through the points (4, 16) and (7, 19)

To find: linear function rule in terms of x and y for this line

A linear function is a function of the form f(x) = ax + b, where a and b are real numbers. Here, a represents the slope of the line, and b represents the y-axis intercept

The slope intercept form is given as:

y = mx + c

Where "m" is the slope of line and "c" is the y - intercept

Let us first find slope of line

The slope "m" of a line is given as:

$m=\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}$

$\text {Here } x_{1}=4 \text { and } x_{2}=7 \text { and } y_{1}=16 \text { and } y_{2}=19$

$m=\frac{19-16}{7-4}=\frac{3}{3}=1$

Thus the slope of line is 1

Substitute m = 1 and (x, y) = (4, 16) in y = mx + c

16 = 1(4) + c

c = 16 - 4 = 12

Substitute c = 12 and m = 1 in slope intercept form

y = 1x + 12

y = x + 12 is the required linear function rule
