Questions 16-17. Suppose a tortoise is 1000 feet from the ocean. Each day the tortoise travels three-fifths of the remaining dis

tance to the ocean. Use this information to: Construct a model that represents the remaining distance that the tortoise must travel to reach the ocean.

Answer:

  r(n) = 1000·(2/5)^n

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the tortoise travels 3/5 the remaining distance, the remaining distance at the end of the day is 2/5 of what it was at the beginning of the day. So, the function can be modeled by an exponential with a "growth" factor of 2/5:

  r(n) = 1000·(2/5)^n

where r(n) is the number of remaining feet after n days of travel.

How to graph the equation
navik [9.2K]
First, you need to change it from standard form to slope-intercept form. To do this, you have to add 3x to both sides. Now that y is by itself, divide by 5 on both sides. Your equation should now be y=3x+3. Then, graph the points. Your x-intercept should be at (-5,0) and your y- intercept should be at (0,3).

The figure shown is an equilateral triangle. Calculate the length of each side and give your answer in cm.
cricket20 [7]
Given at you have an equilateral triangle, all sides have the same length.

Therefore,
First side 2x-7 = Second side x+y-9 = Third side y+5

Let us look at the second and third sides for now:
x+y-9 = y+5
x = y+5 - (y-9)
x = y-y+5+9
x = 14

Then we look at equating the first and third sides:
2x-7 = y+5
y = 2x-7-5

Substitute x =14 in the equation above:
y = 2(14)-7-5
= 28-7-5
= 21-5
= 16

The length of the third side is:
y+5 = 16 +5 = 21

Given that the length of each sides are the same in an equilateral triangle, all sides have the length 21cm.

There were 75 roasted turkeys at Ally's Eats. Bob's Goods had 4/5 as many roasted turkeys as Ally's Eats. If Ally's Eats had 5/6
Vilka [71]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Roasted turkey in Ally's Eats = 75

Roasted turkey in Bob's goods  = 4 / 5 x  Ally's Eats

= (4 / 5) x 75

= 60

Roasted turkey in Charlotte's Market = N ( let )

Given

5/6  N  = 75

N = 6 / 5 x 75

= 90

Roasted turkey in Charlotte's Market  = 90 .

What is the slope of this line?
White raven [17]

Answer:

<em>m</em> = 0

General Formulas and Concepts:

<u>Pre-Algebra</u>

  • Order of Operations: BPEMDAS

<u>Algebra I</u>

  • Slope Formula: m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

<em>Find points given from the graph.</em>

Point (0, 2)

Point (7, 2)

<u>Step 2: Find slope </u><em><u>m</u></em>

  1. Substitute:                    m=\frac{2-2}{7-0}
  2. Subtract:                       m=\frac{0}{7}
  3. Divide:                          m=0

Any horizontal line will have a slope of 0.

And we have our final answer!
