Answer:
128 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
The convict has a head start of ...
distance = speed × time
distance = (8 mi/h) × (14 h) = 112 mi
That distance is being closed at a rate that is the difference between the speeds, so ...
64 mi/h -8 mi/h = 56 mi/h
The time it takes the guards to catch the convict will be ...
time = distance/speed
time = (112 mi)/(56 mi/h) = 2 h
The guards and prisoner will be at a distance from the prison of ...
distance = speed × time
distance = (64 mi/h)(2 h) = 128 mi
The convict will be caught 128 miles from the prison.
__
<em>Check</em>
The convict will run an additional (8 mi/h)(2 h) = 16 mi after the guards start pursuit. That, in addition to the 112 miles already run, will total 112+16=128 miles, the same distance the guards travel in that 2 hours.
3 because 20/6=3.3333333333 so you would have 3 because you can split the pictures
First let's reduce the feet to miles
there are 5280 feet in a mile therefore
26400 feet=5 miles
31680 feet=6 miles
Jet A(the first jet) descends 5 miles in 96 miles
Jet B(the second jet) descends 6 miles in 120 miles
We can compare these as fractions to see which is steeper. This can be viewed as slope and the origin (0,0) is the airport.
slope: 6/120=?=5/96
1/20=?=5/96
Now we know that 5/100 =1/20 so 5/96 must be bigger than 5/100 because you are dividing by a smaller number.
so 1/20<5/96
So Jet B is descending steeper than Jet A.
As for linear model, I don't exactly know what your teacher means but I think I actually used the linear model when I'm thinking of steepness as slope in the coordinate plane, I will include a picture.
In this extremely zoomed out graph, you can see the blue line is just slighly higher than the red line(slope as in explanation is way easier to tell) this could be seen as the linear model) :) Hope it helped!
