Answer: The rabbit is hopping at 3 feet/ sec in speed

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1

Let the The number of feet of the rabbit be expressed as N

AND  time rabbit spends hopping can be expressed  as  t

From the question,  The number of feet varies directly with the time rabbit spends hopping can be expressed  as

N α t

Let us introduce a constant of proportionality ,S which represents  speed in this case, we now have that

N = St

STEP 2 -- SOLVING

If the rabbit hop 6 feet in 2 seconds, Then speed =

N = St

6=  S X2

S = 6/ 2

S = 3

also

If the rabbit hop 12 feet in 4 seconds, Then speed =

N = St

12=  S X 4

S = 12/ 4

S = 3

Also recall

that Speed = Distance / time

Pluging the values in the first case,

speed = 6 feet/ 2 secconds = 3 feet/ seconds

in the second case

Speed= 12 feet/ 4 second s= 3 feet/ secs.

Answer:

m=-2

Step-by-step explanation:

The two given points are: (-3, -2) and (-2, -4)

The equation for slope is m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

m=\frac{(-4)-(-2)}{(-2)-(-3)}

m=-2/1

m=-2

2log(base 5)^(x-3)-log(base 5)^8= log(base 5)^2
Alja [10]

Answer:

x = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

2log_5(x-3)-log_58= log_52\\\\2log_5(x-3) =log_52+log_58\\\\2log_5(x-3) =log_5(2\times 8) \\\\2log_5(x-3) =log_516\\\\2log_5(x-3) =log_54^2 \\\\2log_5(x-3) =2 log_54 \\\\log_5(x-3) =log_54 \\\\x - 3 = 4\\\\x = 4+3\\\\\huge \orange { \boxed{x = 7}}
