Crawling Crayfish!

Mathematics
1 answer:
boyakko [2]3 years ago
5 0

Answer: Crayfish, 25 s

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The length of race is 60 cm

Flicker gets a 10 cm head-start

Cray fish covers 6 cm in 5 s i.e. its speed is

\Rightarrow \dfrac{6}{5}=1.2\ cm/s

Flicker covers 4 cm in 5 s, its speed is

\Rightarrow \dfrac{4}{5}=0.8\ cm/s

Time taken by Cray fish to cover the race is

\Rightarrow t_1=\dfrac{60}{1.2}\\\\\Rightarrow t_1=50\ s

Time taken by flicker to cover race with 10 cm head start

\Rightarrow t_2=\dfrac{60-10}{0.8}\\\\\Rightarrow t_2=62.5\ s

Time taken by crayfish is less. Hence, crayfish wins the race

When they both covers the same distance, they tied momentarily i.e.

\Rightarrow 1.2t=10+0.8t\\\Rightarrow 0.4t=10\\\\\Rightarrow t=\dfrac{10}{0.4}\\\\\Rightarrow t=25\ s

After 25 s, they tied the race.

-7x - 4y = -4 find the slope and y intercept of the line
ki77a [65]

Answer:

The slope is -7/4 and the y intercept is 1

Step-by-step explanation:

-7x - 4y = -4

Put the equation in slope intercept form and solve for y

y = mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

Add 7x to each side

-7x - 4y+7x =+7x -4

- 4y =7x -4

Divide by -4

-4y/-4 = 7x/-4 -4/-4

y = -7/4 x +1

The slope is -7/4 and the y intercept is 1
