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.

12x + 4 divided by 4 plus 20x + 5 divided by 5
Rasek [7]
12x + 4 ➗ 4 + 20x + 5 ➗ 5

1. PEMDAS (order of operations) solve the division problems

(4 divided by 4 & 5 divided by 5)
12x + 1 + 20x + 1

2. Swap around the order of operations as commutative property states that you can swap the order of an addition problem and get the same answer.

12x + 20x + 1 + 1

3. Add like terms

32x + 2

This is the most simplified answer you could get as you can not add 32x and 2 as they are not like terms.

Arithmetic sequence.

a1 = 5, d = 6.

nth term = a1 + d(n - 1)

= 5 + 6(n - 1)

= 5 + 6n - 6

= 6n - 1.

The altitude a ( in feet) of a plane t minutes after lift off is given by a=3400t+600
Julli [10]

Answer:

  6 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

'a' in the formula represents altitude in feet. You are told the altitude is 21000 feet, so put that into the formula:

   21000 = 3400t +600

You can solve this for t:

  20400 = 3400t . . . . . subtract 600 from both sides

  6 = t . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide both sides by 3400

The problem statement tells you that t represents minutes after lift off, so this solution means the altitude is 21000 feet 6 minutes after lift off.

The question is asking for the number of minutes after lift off that the plane reaches an altitude of 21000 feet, so this answers the question directly:

  The plane is at an altitude of 21000 feet 6 minutes after lift off.
