Answer:
We know that the kite with the tail is 15 feet and 6 inches. While 6 inches is 0,50 foot, it's 15,5 feet. If the lenght of the kite is x, then:
15,5 = x + 1,5 + 2x
15,5 = 3x + 1,5 / - 1,5 (both sides)
14 = 3x / : 3 (both sides)
x ≈ 4,66
The kite is approx .4,66 feet long. It means that the tail is about 15,5 - 4,66 = 10,84 feet long.
Question 5, x could be either 6 or -1.
Answer/Step-by-step explanation:
a. % of people who smoke = no. of people who smoke ÷ total no. of people surveyed × 100
Total no. of people who smoke is given = 4 + 36 = 40
Total people surveyed = 200
% of people who smoke = 
a. % of people who do not exercise regularly = no. of people who do not exercise regularly ÷ total no. of people surveyed × 100
Total no. of people who do not exercise regularly = 36 + 134 = 170
Total people surveyed = 200
% of people who smoke = 
The answer is C

S(t) = 3.82 - 0.2t
Step-by-step explanation:
After 7 weeks, the ice is 2.42 meters thick. The ice loses 0.2 meters of thickness per week; this means on the 7th week, it has lost 7(0.2) = 1.4 meters of thickness.
This means the ice started at 2.42+1.4 = 3.82 meters thick.
Our function will start at the original thickness of the ice, 3.82 meters.
Since the ice is losing thickness, we will subtract; it loses at a rate of 0.2 meters per week (t), which gives us 0.2t. This is subtracted from the original, 3.82 meters, giving us
S(t) = 3.82 - 0.2t
