Speed is measured by dividing distance by time. Miles per hour is a measure of speed. In this case, our distance unit is feet, and our time unit is minutes. To find the speed, we need to find distance/time, or ft/min.

1800ft/45min

40 ft/min

Answer: $\Large\boxed{Point~B'~=~(-4,~-2)}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given information

Point B = (-2, -4)

Reflection line: y = x

Concept:

When reflecting over the line y = x, the position of y and x in the original coordinate switches places.

This is because it is " y = x ", assuming that they could interchange

Find the coordinate of Point B'

Original (x, y) = (-2, -4)

Point B' = (x', y') = (y, x) = $\Large\boxed{(-4,~-2)}$

Please refer to the attachment below for a graphical understanding

Hope this helps!! :)

The ages of two brothers are in the ratio two to three, but in eight years, the ratio of their ages will be three to four. What

Darina [25.2K]

X = older brother
y = younger brother

Equation 1: x/y = 2/3 ⇒ x = 2y/3
Equation 2: x + 8/y + 8 = 3/4

$( \frac{2y}{3} + 8) / y +8 = \frac{3}{4}$
$(2y + 24)/3 = y + 8 = \frac{3}{4}$
$2y + 24 = 3 (y + 8) = \frac{3}{4}$
$2y + 24 = 3y + 24 = \frac{3}{4}$
$4 (2y + 24) = 3 (3y + 24)$
$8y + 96 = 9y + 72$
$y = 24$

The age of the older brother is 24.

$x = \frac{2y}{3} = \frac{2*24}{3}$
$x = \frac{48}{3}$
$x = 16$

The age of the youngest brother is 16.

Explain the difference between |-3| and -3?

Ivan

They are opposites. since |-3| has the lines around it, this represents absolute value, which is not positive or negative but how far away the value is from 0. the plain -3 remains the same. |-3| is 3, because it is 3 units away from 0 on the number line.

PLEASE HELP

Fantom [35]

Multiply the price per month by the number of months (m) and add that to the price of the phone.

The equation would be y = 530 + 44.99m
