Width = 2,848 km = 2,848,000 m
2,848,000 m * 100 = 284,800,000 cm
If Europe and North America are moving apart at 2 cm per year:
284,000,000 : 2 = 142,400,000 years
Answer: The North Atlantic Ocean began to form 142,400,000 years ago.

1. A pond has 85 frogs, 20% of the frogs are green the rest are orange, brown, and yellow. How many frogs are green?​
alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

17 green frogs

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to multiply the decimal form of 20% by 85.

To find the decimal form of a percent you take the decimal (20.00) and move it twice to the left (20.00 ---> .2000)

Now, multiply by .2 by 85

(.2)(85) = 17

Therefore, 17 frogs in the pond of 85 frogs are green

Caden exercises daily by walking on a treadmill. He sets the machine so that he will walk at a steady rate of 3.6 miles per hour
babunello [35]

Answer:

a) d = 3.6t

b) 10.8 miles

c) 1.2 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

For part a:

Slope of a line: y = mx + b

In this case, the equation would be: d = mt,

where m represents the speed Caden is walking at.

Note: b = 0 in this case because when Caden starts walking on the treadmill, he hasn't really covered any distance yet.

Therefore, plugging in a speed of 3.6 miles per hour, the equation is:

d = 3.6t

For part b:

This is a simple instance of plugging in 3 hours for our t value.

Therefore, d = 3.6 (3)

d = 10.8 miles

For part c:

In this case, we are given that d = 4.32 miles.

Therefore, 4.32 = 3.6t

Dividing both sides by 3.6, we get

t = 1.2 hours
