Complete question is;

A bee flies at 9 feet per second directly to a flower bed from its hive. The bee stays at the flowerbed for 15 minutes, and then flies directly back to the hive at 6 feet per second. It is away from the hive for a total of 18 minutes.

a. What equation can you use to find the distance of the flowerbed from the hive?

b. How far is the flowerbed from the hive?

Answer:

A) (d/9) + 900 + (d/6) = 1080

B) d = 648 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

A) We are told that A bee flies at 9 feet per second directly to a flower bed from its hive.

Time taken is given as;

t = distance/speed

If distance is d from the hive to the flower bird.

Then, t1 = d/9

The bee stays at the flowerbed for 15 minutes. Thus, time spent at the flowerbird in seconds is; t2 = 15 × 60 = 900 seconds.

We are told that the bee flew directly back to the hive at 6 feet per second.

Thus,time is;

t3 = d/6

Since total time spent away from hive is 18 minutes, then converting to seconds, we have; t = 18 × 60 = 1080 s

Thus;

(d/9) + 900 + (d/6) = 1080

B) Since we have derived;

(d/9) + 900 + (d/6) = 1080

Then we can find d.

Multiply through by 18 to get;

2d + (900 × 18) + 3d = 1080 × 18

2d + 16200 + 3d = 19440

5d = 19440 - 16200

5d = 3240

d = 3240/5

d = 648 ft

If the sumof two numbers,n and m,is rational,which statement is true?
Nataly_w [17]

Option B:

Both n and m must be rational.

Solution:

Given information:

Sum of two numbers, n and m are rational.

<u>To find which statements are true:</u>

Option A: Both n and m may be rational but do not have to be.

It is not true because n and m given is rational.

It have to be rational.

Option B: Both n and m must be rational.

Yes, n and m must be rational then only the sum of numbers are rational.

It is true.

Option C: Both n and m must be irrational.

Sum of irrationals will be sometimes irrational and sometimes can't add.

So it is not true.

Option D: One number is rational and the other is irrational.

Rational and irrational cannot be add.

So it is not true.

Option B is true.

Both n and m must be rational.

4 × (3 + 7) = (4 ×[]) + (4 ×[])
Naily [24]

Answer:

4 × (3 + 7) = (4 ×7) + (4 × 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

If you go by the order of PEMDAS you would do the parentheses first. 3 + 7 =10. 10 × 4 = 40. Then you would just use the distributive property and do (4× 7) + (4 × 3)

4 × 7 = 28 and 4 × 3 = 12 28 +12 =40

<u>Algebra I</u>

  • Slope Formula: m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

<em>Find points from chart.</em>

Point (39, 36)

Point (40, 29)

<u>Step 2: Find slope </u><em><u>m</u></em>

  1. Substitute:                    m=\frac{29-36}{40-39}
  2. Subtract:                       m=\frac{-7}{1}
