A dolphin swims 665,280 feet in 3 hours. Use the formula dart, where d represents distance, r represents rate, and t represents

time, to answer the
following questions. Show your work.
Part A: Rearrange the distance formula, dart, to solve for rate. (2 points)
Part B: Find the dolphin's rate in feet per hour, (3 points)
Part C: Find the dolphin's rate in miles per hour. (3 points)
Part D: Which unit, feet, or miles, makes more sense to use in this scenario, and why? (2 points)

Step-by-step explanation:

a) r=d/t ( same as formula of speed)

b) r= 665280/3=221760 feet/hr

c) distance in miles = 665280/5280= 126

so r=126/3 = 42 miles/hr

d) i think using miles makes more sense cz using feet will result in greater number of values so there is a greater chance of human error

Adding answer so you can mark the original answer as brainliest!

Part A: r = d/t > 221,760 = 665,280/3

Part B: 221,750 feet/hour

Part C: 126 miles/hour (divide speed value by 5280

Part D: Miles makes more sense in this scenario because it is a larger unit of measurement and the dolphin travels a long distance.

Four more than half of the students in Bryan’s homeroom have tickets to attend the school’s musical. 20 students have tickets. S

vlabodo [156]

Answer:

<h2>The option B and D are the equations.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let, the total number of students are x.

The number of students having the ticket is $4 + \frac{x}{2}$ .

It is given that the number is 20.

Hence, $4 + \frac{x}{2} = 20\\4 = 20 - \frac{x}{2}$ .

Option B is the equation.

Option D is also the same.

The difference is just, the variable is wriiten in the other side.

What is the answer to these question?

Natali5045456 [20]

Answer:

2. y = 7/2 x -2

3. y = 3/4x-1

Step-by-step explanation:

points (0,-2) (4,12)

slope = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

slope = (12--2)/(4-0)

= (12+2)/4

= 14/4 = 7/2

the slope is 7/2 and the y intercept is -2

y = mx+b

y = 7/2 x -2

points (0,-1) (4,2)

slope = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

slope = (2--1)/(4-0)

= (2+1)/4

= 3/4

the slope is 3/4 and the y intercept is -1

y = mx+b

y = 3/4x-1

Use the identity x3+y3+z3−3xyz=(x+y+z)(x2+y2+z2−xy−yz−zx) to determine the value of the sum of three integers given: the sum of

fenix001 [56]

ffn

$x^3+y^3+z^3-3xyz=(x+y+z)(x^2+y^2+z^2-xy-yz-zx)$

$x^3+y^3+z^3-3xyz=(x+y+z)(x^2+y^2+z^2-(xy+yz+zx))$

the sum of their squares is 110, So $x^2+y^2 + z^2= 110$

the sum of their cubes is 684, so $x^3+y^3 + z^3= 684$

the product of the three integers is 210, so xyz= 210

the sum of any two products (xy+yz+zx) is 107

Now we plug in all the values in the identity

$x^3+y^3+z^3-3xyz=(x+y+z)(x^2+y^2+z^2-(xy+yz+zx))$

684 - 3(210) = (x+y+z)(110-107)

684 - 630 = (x+y+z)(3)

54 = 3(x+y+z)

Divide by 3 on both sides

18 = x+y+z

the value of the sum of three integers is 18
