Answer:

21.45 mi

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance = speed × time

The time it takes the lion is:

13.75 mi = 50 mi/hr × t

t = 0.275 hr

The distance ran by the cheetah in that time is:

d = 78 mi/hr × 0.275 hr

d = 21.45 mi

Answer:

21.45 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

First, let's find the main ratio:

50:78

Now, let's bring a variable into the equation.

13.75:x

We can find the number to multiply by dividing 13.75 by 50 using long division.

13.75÷50=0.275

We need to find how many miles the cheetah ran, so we will multiply 78 and 0.275.

78·0.275=21.45

So, the cheetah ran 21.45 miles in the time it took the lion to run 13.75 miles.

A line has a slope of -5 and passes through the point (2, 2). What is the equation for this line?
koban [17]
To determine the equation of the line, we use the point slope form equation for this problem. It is expressed as:

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

We substitute the given values in the problem to the equation.

y - 2 = -5(x - 2)
y = -5x +10+2
y = -5x +12
