Given that Jerry mows 3/20 yards of lawn in 1/6 hour.

Now we have to found how much Jerry can mow per hour.

We know that "work" and "time" are in direct proportion so we can setup the ratio of work and time to easily find the required work.

\frac{Portion \; \; of  \; \; lawn  \; \; mowed}{time}=\frac{\frac{3}{20}}{\frac{1}{6}}

\frac{Portion \; \; of  \; \; lawn  \; \; mowed}{1}=\frac{\frac{3}{20}}{\frac{1}{6}}

Portion \; \; of  \; \; lawn  \; \; mowed=\frac{3}{20}*\frac{6}{1}

Portion \; \; of  \; \; lawn  \; \; mowed=\frac{18}{20}

Portion \; \; of  \; \; lawn  \; \; mowed=\frac{9}{10}

Hence final answer is \frac{9}{10} yards.

He mows 9/10 of his yard per hour.

It takes him 1/6 of an hour to mow 3/20 of his yard.  6(1/6) = 1 hour; 6(3/20) = 18/20 = 9/10.

5. Patricia is on the edge of the top of a mountain and notices that a kayak on the lake is 30 meters
zhuklara [117]

The distance from the kayak to the mountain to the nearest whole number is 43 meters.

The situation will form a right angle triangle as shown below in the diagram.

<h3>Properties of a right angle triangle:</h3>
  • One of its angle is 90 degrees.
  • The sides and angle can be found by using trigonometric ratios.

The height(opposite side) of the triangle is the kayak distance from the mountain to the lake below. The distance from the kayak to the mountain is the adjacent side of the triangle.

Therefore, using trigonometric ratios,

tan 35 = opposite / adjacent

tan 35° = 30 / a

a = 30 / tan 35°

a = 30 / 0.70020753821

a = 42.8444402023

a = 42.84 meters

a ≈ 43 meters

Graph the function f(x)=−13x+1.
pogonyaev

Graph each points:

f(x) = -13x + 1

when x = 0, y = 1

f(0) = -13(0) + 1

f(0) = 0 + 1

f(0) = 1

when x = 1, y = -14

f(1) = -13(1) + 1

f(1) = -13 + 1

f(1) = -14

when x = 2, y = -25

f(2) = -13(2) + 1

f(2) = -26 + 1

f(2) = -25

etc.

Graph each point and connect them.
