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.

Answer:

f(x) = 4x + 3 \,,\,\,\,g(x) = 7x-6\\(f/g)(x)=\frac{4x+3}{7x-6}\,,\,\,\,7x-6\neq0\implies x\neq \frac{6}{7}\\\mbox{Domain:}\,\,\,x\in(-\infty,\frac{6}{7}) \cup (\frac{6}{7},+\infty)

Answer:

The slope of the line. otherwise known as the gradient, can be found in the equation as the number in front of the x term.

In this case, it is - 1/2 (or -0.5, however you want to answer it)

How do you find the length of the legs when only given the hypotenuse with an isosceles right triangle?
emmainna [20.7K]
The side length ratios of an isosceles right triangle are 1-1-\sqrt{2}. So, the length of a leg would be equal to the length of the hypotenuse divided by the square root of 2.

Using pythagorean theorem (c is the hypotenuse, a and b are the legs)
c²=a²+b²
If the triangle is isosceles, two side lengths must be equal. In the case of a right triangle, the legs must be equal in length. So, b=a.
c²=a²+a²
c²=2a²
a²=c²/2
a=c/\sqrt{2}
a≈c/1.414
