That picture doesn't have anything to do with the problem.
Snail went right, into positive numbers, frog went left, negative numbers. Their distance is the absolute difference.
d = | 2 - 4(-3) | = | 14 | = 14
Answer: 14
Answer:
72 miles.
Step-by-step explanation:
If he uses 6 gallons of gas, you would do 6 (gallons he used) x 12 (miles per gallon) equaling 72.
The direct variation that can be established using the given parameters is that, the time it takes between seeing the lightning and hearing the thunder is directly related to the speed.
However, it can also be established that the time described above is inversely proportional to the distance. This can be written as,
t = k/d
We substitute the given expression for each of the known terms. t is time, s, and d is distance, 3s.
s = k/3s
The k written in the equation is the constant of proportionality.
