7 minutes= 2 minutes x 3.5
The squirrel burrowed 6 holes in 2 minutes.
To find how many holes the squirrel burrows in 7 minutes we multiply 6 x 3.5= 21.
Alternate method:
If the squirrel burrows 6 holes in 2 minutes that means he has burrowed 3 holes in 1 minute.
Multiply the number of holes burrowed in 1 minute by 7 to get 21.
Answer:
40 minutes.
Step-by-step explanation:
- time spent on the thread mill as a function of d(day) = t(d)
= 30 +2(d-1) minutes
[where d represents day number]
(when d is 1 the time spent should be 30
so substitute d=1 and check it will be 30 only.
on first day he will spend 30 minutes so, I added 30 .
and on every additional day( these additional days are excluding first day), he will increase the time by 2 minutes.so, I added 2(d-1) to initial 30 minutes)
- so, T(6), the minutes he will spend on the treadmill on day 6=
=30+2(6-1)
=30+2(5)
=30+10
=40 minutes
If you're finding slope, the answer is 5/3
