Make two equations representing the position of each animal, p and k, for the puppy and kitten respectively.
p=25t and k=180+20t
The puppy will catch the kitten when p=k so we can say:
25t=180+20t subtract 20t from both sides
5t=180 divide both sides by 5
t=36
So the puppy will catch the kitten after 36 seconds.
(D) traveled at the slowest rate.
I think this is it not sure tho
Answer:
Z + 12
Step-by-step explanation:
Z-(-12)
Z + 12
Double negative turns into positive
First we need to know how much each pen costs. So we take 11.77 and divide it by 11. That gives us 1.07 per pen. So answer choice A has 4 pens for 4.44, so we need to multiply 1.07 x 4. That gives you 4.28, so we know that isn't the correct answer. For option B, we need to multiply 1.07 x 5. That is 5.35, so that also can't be the answer. For C, we need to do 1.07 x 6, and that gives us 6.42. So we know the correct answer is option C.
