Answer:

Mai

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the rate, you must determine who is going faster per minute. To do this, you must divide the total number of miles by the total number of minutes.

Mai: 5 miles / 15 minutes = 1/3 miles per minute

Jada: 4 miles / 14 minutes = 2/7 miles per minute

Then, use a common denominator to make calculations easier:

Mai: 1/3 * 7/7

Jada: 2/7 * 3/3

You should get:

Mai: 7/21 miles per minute

Jada: 6/21 miles per minute

By looking at this, you can see that Mai is traveling slightly faster, going more miles than Jada per minute.

The sum of four consecutive whole numbers is 54, what are the four numbers
anastassius [24]
Let the four consecutive numbers be x, x+1, x+2, and x+3.

The sum of the four numbers is 54, therefore
x + (x+1) + (x+2) + (x+3) = 54
4x + 6 = 54
4x = 54 - 6 = 48
x = 12

Answer:
The four numbers are 12, 13, 14, and 15

A cell phone package charges $39 even if 0 minutes are used during the month. Each additional minute of talk time adds $0.07.
Orlov [11]

Answer: the slope intercept form for this situation is y = 0.07x + 39

Step-by-step explanation:

The cell phone package charges $39 even if 0 minutes are used during the month. This means that the package has a constant charge of $39.

Each additional minute of talk time adds $0.07. Assuming x additional minutes of talk time is made, the total cost of x additional minutes of talk time would be

0.07x + 39

Let y represent the total cost of x additional minutes, then

y = 0.07x + 39

The equation for the slope intercept form is expressed as

y = mx + c

Where

m = slope

c = intercept.

Comparing with our equation,

The slope is 0.07 and the intercept is 39

The ratio of collectible coins Juanita owns to coins that Elia owns is 3:1. Elia has 32 coins. How will the ratio of Juanita’s c
yaroslaw [1]
Hi there Maebe, since the ratio is 3:1 your answer is 96.

The ratio 3:1 is just saying Juanita has 3 times whatever Elita has. So, Elita’s 32 times 3 equals 96. :) I hope I’ve helped you. Please give me feedback if you need more help understanding!
