Answer:

21 pieces

Step-by-step explanation:

1 1/5 + 9/10 =

6/5 + 9/10 =

12/10 + 9/10 =

21/10.......this is the amount of paper used

the paper will be cut into pieces that are 1/10 yards long...

(21/10) / (1/10) =

21/10 * 10/1 =

21 <==== so the student is gonna need 21 one tenth pieces

A moving sidewalk in an airport moves people between gates. It takes Jason's 8-year-old
likoan [24]

Answer:

The sidewalk moves at 0.5 ft/sec

Josie's speed walking on a non-moving ground is 3.5ft/sec

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the speed of the side walk and y represent her walking speed

It takes Jason's 8-year-old daughter Josie 44 sec to travel 176 ft walking with the sidewalk

Distance = speed × time

176 = (x+y)×44

44x+44y = 176

x+y = 4 .......1

It takes her 7 sec to walk 21 ft against the moving sidewalk in the opposite direction).

21 = (y-x)7

7y - 7x = 21

y - x = 3 ......2

Add equation 1 to 2

2y = 7

y = 3.5 ft/sec

From equation 1

x + y = 4

x = 4 - 3.5 = 0.5

x = 0.5 ft/sec

The sidewalk moves at 0.5 ft/sec

Josie's speed walking on a non-moving ground is 3.5ft/sec

Six years after a tree was planted, its height was 7 feet. Nine years after it was planted, its height was 16 feet. Which of the
pychu [463]
Considering that the grows at a constant rate we can form an equation where x = how many years after it was planted
and y = its height

Now we just need to find how many feet it grows each year. To do that we just need to compare its height from a certain age to another:
6 years after it was planted : 7 feet,
so x=6 and y = 7

9 years after it was planted: 16 feet
so x= 9 y=16

With thay we can conclude that in 3 years , the tree grew 9 feet. To discover how much the tree grow each year we just nee to divide 9 feet by 3 years which is 3 feet every year.

To write the equatopn now we just need to find the y-intercept which we can discover by setting x to 0:
If in 6 years after the tree was planted it is 7 feet long , we can discover how long it was when it was planted by subtracting 6 years of growth (The slope ) which is 3
7 - 6(years)×3(feet the tree grow each year)
7 - 18 = -11
The tree was -11 feet long when it was planted
which is our y-intercept
( I know it doesnt make sense , but if you apply to a graph it will make more sense )


Now we can make the equation
y = 3x -11
