Answer:

d=55t Sara travels 330 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that distance, d, Sarah drives varies directly to the time, t. This means

d=k⋅t

for some constant, k. Since Sarah travels 440 miles in 8 hours, we substitute these values into the formula for direct variation to find

440=k⋅8

Dividing by 8 gives k=55, so an equation that relates d and t is

d=55t

Substituting t=6 yields

55(6)=330

So Sarah can travel 330 miles in 6 hours.

440/8 will get you how many miles Sarah travel in 1 hour.

But Sarah travels 55 miles in 1 hour.

Sarah can travel 330 miles in 6 hour.

The amount c in grams of a 100 gram sample of carbon-14 remaining after t years is represented by the equation c= 100 (0.99988)t

tigry1 [53]

Answer: The amount of carbon-14 remaining after 4 years is 99.95 grams.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we simply have to substitute t=4 in the equation given and solve for c.

c= 100 (0.99988)^t

c =100 (0.99988)^4

c = 100 x 0.999520086

c= 99.95200864 ≅99.95 grams (rounded)

The amount of carbon-14 remaining after 4 years is 99.95 grams.

What’s the equation for the order pairs (1,-5) and (-2,5)

liq [111]

$\bf (\stackrel{x_1}{1}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{-5})\qquad
(\stackrel{x_2}{-2}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{5})
\\\\\\
slope = m\implies
\cfrac{\stackrel{rise}{ y_2- y_1}}{\stackrel{run}{ x_2- x_1}}\implies \cfrac{5-(-5)}{-2-1}\implies \cfrac{5+5}{-2-1}\implies \cfrac{10}{-3}$

$\bf \begin{array}{|c|ll}
\cline{1-1}
\textit{point-slope form}\\
\cline{1-1}
\\
y-y_1=m(x-x_1)
\\\\
\cline{1-1}
\end{array}\implies y-(-5)=-\cfrac{10}{3}(x-1)\implies y+5=-\cfrac{10}{3}x+\cfrac{10}{3}
\\\\\\
y=-\cfrac{10}{3}x+\cfrac{10}{3}-5\implies y=-\cfrac{10}{3}x-\cfrac{5}{3}$
