You can use the formula
speed=distance/time
20.88=145/x
x=145/20.88
x=6.9 hours -it will take 9 hours

Suppose you are studying a population with the following characteristics: Birth rate = 14 per 1,000/year Death rate = 6 per 1,00
Nutka1998 [239]

Answer:

 12 per 1,000 / year would be population growth

Step-by-step explanation:

To know the population growth it is important to know what it contributes to its growth and that it decreases it.

Birth rate ==> increases growth

Death rate ==> decreases growth

Immigration rate ==> increases growth

Emigration rate ==> decreases growth

Now it only remains to add those that increase growth and subtract those that decrease, like this:

 14 per 1,000 / year - 6 per 1,000 / year + 5 per 1,000 / year - 1 per 1,000 / year = 12 per 1,000 / year

 12 per 1,000 / year would be population growth

Answer:

  • 9x -5y = 4 . . . . standard form
  • 9x -5y -4 = 0 . . . . general form
  • y -1 = 9/5(x -1) . . . . . point-slope form

Step-by-step explanation:

The intercepts are ...

  x-intercept = -4/-9 = 4/9

  y-intercept = -4/5

Knowing these intercepts means we can put the equation in intercept form.

  x/(4/9) -y/(4/5) = 1

The fractional intercepts make graphing somewhat difficult. However, we observe that the sum of the x- and y-coefficients is equal to the constant:

  -9 +5 = -4

This means the point (x, y) = (1, 1) is on the graph. Knowing a point, we can write several equations using that point.

We like a positive leading coefficient (as for standard or general form), so we can multiply the given equation by -1.

  9x -5y = 4 . . . . . standard form equation

Adding -4, so f(x,y) = 0, puts this in general form.

  9x -5y -4 = 0

We can eliminate the constant by translating a line from the origin to the point we know:

  9(x -1) -5(y -1) = 0

This can be rearranged to the traditional point-slope form ...

  y -1 = 9/5(x -1)

Yet another equation can be written that tells you the slope is the same everywhere:

  (y -1)/(x -1) = 9/5

These are only a few of the many possible forms of a linear equation.

Write an equation of the hyperbola given that the center is at (2, -3), the vertices are at (2, 3) and (2, - 9), and the foci ar
zavuch27 [327]
Check the picture below.

so, the hyperbola looks like so, clearly a = 6 from the traverse axis, and the "c" distance from the center to a focus has to be from -3±c, as aforementioned above, the tell-tale is that part, therefore, we can see that c = 2√(10).

because the hyperbola opens vertically, the fraction with the positive sign will be the one with the "y" in it, like you see it in the picture, so without further adieu,

\bf \textit{hyperbolas, vertical traverse axis }
\\\\
\cfrac{(y- k)^2}{ a^2}-\cfrac{(x- h)^2}{ b^2}=1
\qquad 
\begin{cases}
center\ ( h, k)\\
vertices\ ( h,  k\pm a)\\
c=\textit{distance from}\\
\qquad \textit{center to foci}\\
\qquad \sqrt{ a ^2 + b ^2}\\
asymptotes\quad  y= k\pm \cfrac{a}{b}(x- h)
\end{cases}\\\\
-------------------------------

\bf \begin{cases}
h=2\\
k=-3\\
a=6\\
c=2\sqrt{10}
\end{cases}\implies \cfrac{[y- (-3)]^2}{ 6^2}-\cfrac{(x- 2)^2}{ b^2}=1
\\\\\\
\cfrac{(y+3)^2}{ 36}-\cfrac{(x- 2)^2}{ b^2}=1
\\\\\\
c^2=a^2+b^2\implies (2\sqrt{10})^2=6^2+b^2\implies 2^2(\sqrt{10})^2=36+b^2
\\\\\\
4(10)=36+b^2\implies 40=36+b^2\implies 4=b^2
\\\\\\
\sqrt{4}=b\implies 2=b\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
\cfrac{(y+3)^2}{ 36}-\cfrac{(x- 2)^2}{ 2^2}=1\implies \cfrac{(y+3)^2}{ 36}-\cfrac{(x- 2)^2}{ 4}=1
