Answer:

Kindly check explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Length of parking lot = 20 feets

Speed of tortoise which starts at the edge = 6 feets per minute

Speed of tortoise which starts 4 feets from the edge = 2 feets per minute

Equation to represent when they will be in the same spot.

Distance = speed * time

Distance of Tortoise at edge = 6ft/min * t = 6t - - (1)

Distance of the other tortoise = (4 + 2t) - - - (2)

Equating both (1) and (2)

6t = 4 + 2t

6t - 2t = 4

4t = 4

t = 4/4

t = 1

Hence, they'll be at the same spot after 1 minute.

What is the slope of the line through (3,2) and (-3,4)?
NISA [10]

Answer:

slope = - \frac{1}{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

calculate the slope m using the slope formula

m = \frac{y_{2}-y_{1}  }{x_{2}-x_{1}  }

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (3, 2 ) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (- 3, 4 )

m = \frac{4-2}{-3-3} = \frac{2}{-6} = - \frac{1}{3}

Answer:

∠ PQR = 70°

Step-by-step explanation:

The tangent- tangent angle PQR is half the difference of the intercepted arcs.

minor arc PR = 360° - 250° = 110°

Then

∠ PQR = \frac{1}{2} (250 - 110)° = \frac{1}{2} × 140° = 70°

Please Hurry! Due by tonight!
vlabodo [156]

Step-by-step explanation:

the y-intercept is 1 because it's on the y(axis). the line from 1 goes down 1 over three so the slope is 1/3.

your equation would be y=1/3x+1
