So the first hour it travels from 1-6 miles, the second hour it travels at least two miles. And the question is "draw the range of miles the boat could of traveled in the second hour". Well first of all the third hour is completely useless so forget about that. Now, the first hour says it traveled from 1-6 miles, we don't know how many miles it traveled for sure but it could of traveled up to 6. So in the second hour when they say "at least two miles" the boat could of travled at least two miles more than 1-6. So 1+2+3, 2+2+4, 3+2=5, 4+2=6, 5+2=7 and 6+2=8. So the boat could of traveled from 3 to 8 miles in the second hour.

Which equation represents a line which is parallel to the line y=5/6x−7?

lyudmila [28]

Answer: The choice will be any equation where the slope is the same and the y-intercept is different.

$y=\frac{5}{6}x + b$

Step-by-step explanation: Using slope-intercept form, y = mx + b,

m is the slope, b is the y-intercept.

Parallel lines will have the same slope.

So, you are looking for another equation that has 5/6 as the coefficient of x.

It could be an equation in the form 6y + 5x = _b_ where the constant, b, could be anything except -42, as that would be an identical line, not parallel.

Two chemical plants are releasing waste into a holding tank. Plant 1 releases waste twice as fast as plant 2. Together they fill

tatiyna

Answer:

6 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let t represent time taken by plant 1 in hours to release the waste.

Part of waste released by plant 1 in one hour would be $\frac{1}{t}$ .

We have been given that two chemical plant 1 releases waste twice as fast as plant 2, so time taken by plant 2 to release the waste would be $2t$ .

Part of waste released by plant 2 in one hour would be $\frac{1}{2t}$ .

We are also told that together they fill the tank in 4 hours. So part of tank filled by both plants working together in one hour would be $\frac{1}{4}$ .
