Students observing a caterpillar crawl on a tree noticed that the caterpillar crawled upwards 38 of an inch every minute. The ca

terpillar was already 4.5 feet off the ground when the students began observing.
Which function represents the total number of inches the caterpillar crawls after x minutes?

f(x) = 4.5x + 3/8

f(x) = 54x + 3/8

f(x( = 3/8x + 54

f(x) = 3/8x + 4.5

Answer: Third Option

f(x) = \frac{3}{8}x + 54

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to propose an equation that models the distance traveled by the caterpillar as a function of time, we have a constant initial quantity of 4.5 feet and then we know that every minute the caterpillar advances 3/8 of an inch

Then the distance that the caterpillar to advanced after x minutes is:

f(x) = \frac{3}{8}x

Then we know that initially the caterpillar was at a distance of 4.5 feet or 54 inch

Then the equation for the distance in inch is:

f(x) = \frac{3}{8}x + 54

Answer by JKismyhusbandbae: add 5 to 23

Explanation: The numbers are increasing by 5 each term. To double check 13 - 8 equals 5. To make sure it's right add 13 + 5 equals 18 and so you can add 23 plus 5 equals 28. Which means that five is our pattern.

Lyra's speed of travel is 6.71 feet per seconds and Lyra's direction of travel is 27 degrees north of east

<h3>How to determine the speed of travel?</h3>

The diagram that represents the scenario is added as an attachment.

Let x represents Lyra's speed of travel.

The value of x is calculated using the following Pythagoras theorem.

x = \sqrt{3^2 + 6^2}

Evaluate the exponents

x = \sqrt{9 + 36}

Evaluate the sum

x = \sqrt{45}

Evaluate the exponent

x = 6.71

Hence, Lyra's speed of travel is 6.71 feet per seconds

<h3>How to determine the direction of travel?</h3>

The direction (∅) is calculated using the following tangent ratio.

\tan(\theta) = \frac 36

Evaluate the quotient

\tan(\theta) = 0.5

Take the arc tan of both sides

\theta = \tan^{_1}(0.5)

Evaluate

\theta = 27

Hence, Lyra's direction of travel is 27 degrees north of east

Mama L [17]

based on the number of marbles in the bag, the number of marble groups possible is 7,140 groups.

the probability of selecting 2 red and 1 yellow is 1/68.

<h3>what number of 3-marble groups can be made?</h3>

first, find the number of marbles:

= 7 + 8 + 9 + 7 + 5

= 36

the number of marble groups are:

= 36 ! / (3 ! x 33 !)

= 7,140 groups

the probability of picking 2 red and 1 yellow is:

= (( (7! / (2! x 5!)) x ( ( 5! / (1! x 4!))) / 7,140

= 1 / 68

= 1.47%
