Height of the kite from the ground = 50 feet
Angle at which the kite is flying = 45 degrees
Let us assume the length of the string = x feet
Then
x = 50 * (square root 2)
   = 50 * 1.414
   = 70.7 feet
From the above deduction, it can be concluded that the correct option among all the options that are given in the question is the second option or option "b".

(15 POINTS!) The graph shows the distance a ghost crab can run over time the D equals the distance in meters and the t equal the
Maru [420]

Answer:

B. d = 5/3t

Step-by-step explanation:

The complete question is shown in the figure attached with.

We need to find the equation of direct variation using the graph. The general equation for a direction variation is:

y = kx

In this case, the variable along x axis is time in seconds i.e. "t" and the variable along y axis is distance in meters i.e. "d". So, the equation for this case would be:

d = kt

We need to find the value of "k" to complete this equation. For this we can use any point from the graph and substitute it in the above equation. From the graph we can see that the distance covered for time = 3 seconds is 5 meters. Substituting t =3 and d = 5 in above equation, we get:

5 = 3k

k = 5/3

Using the value of k in the above equation, we get:

d=\frac{5}{3}t

Therefore, option B gives the correct answer

What is the value of the expression 2^0/4^2
xz_007 [3.2K]

Anything to the zeroth power is equal to 1. (The numerator is equal to one because of this rule)

So.

\frac{1}{4^2} = \frac{1}{16}
