The turtle would be moving 0.5 feet every minute. The width of the path is 4 feet.

Answer:

5.67 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that a turtle begins to cross a path.

We have to find the total width of the path.

Turtle travel distance in 3 minutes =2.5 feet

Turtle travel distance in 1 minute=\frac{2.5}{3}

Turtle travel distance in 5 minutes form one edge=\frac{2.5}{3}\times 5=\frac{12.5}{3}

The distance of turtle from second edge=1.5 feet

Total width of path

\frac{12.5}{3}+1.5

\frac{12.5+4.5}{3}=\frac{17}{3}

Width of path=5.67 feet.

Why are inverse relationships between operations used to solve two step inequalities?
zhenek [66]

Answer:

The goal in solving an equation is to get the variable by itself on one side of the equation and a number on the other side of the equation. To isolate the variable, we must reverse the operations acting on the variable. We do this by performing the inverse of each operation on both sides of the equation.

Reverse addition and subtraction (by subtracting and adding) outside parentheses. Reverse multiplication and division (by dividing and multiplying) outside parentheses. When multiplying or dividing by a negative number, flip the inequality sign. It does not matter if the number being divided is positive or negative

It's necessary to apply inverse operations on both sides of the equals signs so that you can solve for the variable and balance the equation.

Multi-step inequalities are solved using the same processes that work for solving equations with one exception. When you multiply or divide both sides of an inequality by a negative number, you must reverse the inequality symbol. (Much like when you divide by a negative number, the sign of the inequality must flip! Here's why: When you multiply both sides by a negative value you make the side that is greater have a "bigger" negative number, which actually means it is now less than the other side!)

What are the coordinates of the hole in the graph of the function?
MakcuM [25]

Answer:

The hole is at (5,7)

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2 − 3x − 10

-------------------

x−5

Factor the numerator

(x-5)(x+2)

-------------------

x−5

There is a hole at x=5 since it will cancel in the numerator and the denominator

f(x) = x+2  and letting x = 5

f(5) = 5+2

The hole is at (5,7)
