Answer:

Option C. The robin flies fastest because its rate is 15 m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x -----> the time in seconds

y ----> the distance in meters

The speed is equal to divide the distance by the time

In this problem, the slope or unit rate of the linear equation is the same that the speed

<em>Robin's Flight</em>

<em>Find the slope</em>

The formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to

m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}

take two points from the table

(2,30) and (3,45)

substitute in the formula

m=\frac{45-30}{3-2}

m=\frac{15}{1}

m=15\frac{m}{sec}

<em>Cardinal's Flight</em>

y=10x

m=10\frac{m}{sec}

<em>Blue Jay's Flight</em>

take two points from the graph

(0,0) and (2,20)

substitute in the formula

m=\frac{20-0}{2-0}

m=\frac{20}{2}

m=10\frac{m}{sec}

Compare

The robin flies fastest because its rate is 15 m/s

30°<br> 8 + 6x<br> 4x + 2 <br> in a triangle
andrey2020 [161]

Answer:

x=12

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

30 + 4x + 2 = 8 + 6x

Reorder the terms:

30 + 2 + 4x = 8 + 6x

Combine like terms: 30 + 2 = 32

32 + 4x = 8 + 6x

Solving

32 + 4x = 8 + 6x

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-6x' to each side of the equation.

32 + 4x + -6x = 8 + 6x + -6x

Combine like terms: 4x + -6x = -2x

32 + -2x = 8 + 6x + -6x

Combine like terms: 6x + -6x = 0

32 + -2x = 8 + 0

32 + -2x = 8

Add '-32' to each side of the equation.

32 + -32 + -2x = 8 + -32

Combine like terms: 32 + -32 = 0

0 + -2x = 8 + -32

-2x = 8 + -32

Combine like terms: 8 + -32 = -24

-2x = -24

Divide each side by '-2'.

x = 12

Simplifying

x = 12

Samaria has 6 more than three times as many pieces of candy as Sydney. Samaria has 36 pieces of candy. How many does Sydney have
Vlad1618 [11]
Sam=3syd+6 and sam=36, since sam=sam we can say:

3syd+6=36

3syd=30

syd=10

So Sydney has 10 pieces of candy.
