Answer:
42 minutes.
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that:
y = 0.2*x
is the equation that that defines the distance, in miles, that the boat travels in x minutes.
We know that the dolphins are at 8.4 miles from the boat.
Then when we have y = 8.4, this will mean that the boat reached the dolphins.
Then we need to solve the equation:
y = 8.4 = 0.2*x
for x
To do that, we just need to isolate x in one side of the equation, so we can just divide both sides by 0.2 to get:
8.4/0.2 = (0.2*x)/0.2
42 = x
And x is time in minutes, thus, the boat needs to travel for 42 minutes to reach the dolphins.
Make an equation.
'is' is an equal sign
The blank can be 'x'
'of' = multiplication
18 = x * 30
Multiply:
18 = 30x
Divide 30 to both sides:
x = 0.6
Multiply by 100:
0.6 * 100 = 60%
Answer:
C) 3/8
Step-by-step explanation:
Find 1/8 + 1/4
1/8 + 1/4
= 1/8 + 2/8
= 3/8
100 x 4.2 would equal 420.
The answer is 4.2
You already know that y equals -4. It says that x equals 3, so multiply the -4 by 3 and because it has a negative number and a positive number it will equal -12. Remember anytime you see a letter after a number it means multiply. The complete problem should be -10 because 2 is a whole number you subtract it from -12. Hope that helped you out some.
