Answer:

Your answer is A. 8/45 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

I can provide a more detailed answer in a few but for starters, you can rule out answers C & D because that would be the fastest snake alive to be able to travel that far in such a short time.

That leaves a choice between A or B. Using the common denominator method to switch 2/9 and 4/5 to x/45, this makes the most sense. When comparing the 8/45 mph to the actual question, it's very reasonable.

I'll come back in a few and provide the actual math. I'm late for the doctor.

Good luck! Hope this helps!

Answer:

B: 5/18 miles per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

1. multiply the fractions by the reciprocal

2/9 × 4/5 = 10/36

2. Divide answer by common multiple which is 2

10/36 ÷ 2 = 5/18

5/18 miles per hour is the snakes speed

Find the distance between the two points in simplest radical form.<br> (7,2) and (-1, -3)

Paul [167]

Answer:

The answer is

<h2> $\sqrt{89} \: \: \: \: units \\$ </h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance between two points can be found by using the formula

$d = \sqrt{ ({x_1 - x_2})^{2} + ({y_1 - y_2})^{2} } \\$

where

(x1 , y1) and (x2 , y2) are the points

From the question the points are

(7,2) and (-1, -3)

The distance between them is

$d = \sqrt{( {7 + 1})^{2} + ({2 + 3})^{2} } \\ = \sqrt{ {8}^{2} + {5}^{2} } \\ = \sqrt{64 + 25} \\ = \sqrt{89} \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \:$

We have the final answer as

$\sqrt{89} \: \: \: \: units \\$

Hope this helps you
