8 0

Answer:  1.33

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Time taken by Sergio to reach the bottom of a pool = 6 seconds

The depth of the bottom of the pool = 8 feet

We know that ,

\text{Speed}=\dfrac{\text{Distance}}{\text{Time}}\\\\=\dfrac{8}{6}\text{feet per second}\\\\=1.33333333333\text{ feet per second}\\\\\approx1.33\text{ feet per second}

Hence, the  best number to describe Sergio's rate of speed in feet per second is 1.33.

Find an equation of the line that has undefined slope and contains the point left parenthesis negative 1 comma 6 right parenthes
Rudiy27

When the slope isn't defined, it's not possible to write the line in slope-intercept form. No slope means a vertical line, which here must be


x= -1


The ordered pair (-1,6) obviously satisfies the above equation so is on the vertical line x=-1.

If y=27 when x= 8 find y when x =11
Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

37 1/8

Step-by-step explanation:

The problem probably assumes direct variation

y=kx

IF so, then plug in the values and solve for k

27=k(8)

k = 27/8

y= (27/8)x.  Now let x = 11

y = (27/8)11 = 27(11)/8 = 37.125 = 37 1/8

y = 37 1/8

the problem is making some assumption about the relation between x and y.  The simplest assumption that's likely is direct variation,  that x and y are linearly related.  The graph is a straight line through the origin with slope = 27/8

A notebook has a perimeter of 36 inches. It’s area is 80 square inches. What are the dimensions of the notebook
earnstyle [38]
Let's call he width of the notebook w and the length l

w*l=80

2(w+l)=36
w+l=18
w=18-l

(18-l)*l=80
-l^2+18*l-80=0
l=8 or 10

Therefore, the notebook is 8 by 10 inches
