Answer:
x = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
Isolate the variable by dividing each side by factors that don't contain the variable.
The direct variation equation is:
d=kt
where d is the distance that the giraffe travels
k is the constant of variation
and t is time
Now we are told that the giraffe can travel 800 ft in 20 seconds, so we can solve for the constant of variation (k)
800=k(20) divide both sides by 20
k=40-------------and the units are ft per sec
So now we can write
d=40t
ck
d=40t
800ft=40*20 ft
800 ft= 800 ft
Hope this helps!
ANSWER:
There are 30 geese.
STEP-BY-STEP EXPLANATION:
Let y be the total no. of animals
Share= ratio/total ratio X total
50= 5/8 X y
50= 5y/8
50 X 8= 5y
y= 400/5
y= 80
The total no. of animals is 80
80-50=30 ans.
