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.

A similarity ratio is the ratio of the lengths
kow [346]
Similarity ratio is a ratio of two figures having the same side.

Ratio can be rate but rate can never be ratio. In essence, rate is comparison between ratios.  While ratio is comparison between two or more numbers. Further, ratio on one hand, involves numbers either in amount, size, measurement, degrees, percentages or fractions with the absence of specific unit of measurement. On the contrary, rate is comparing quantities, amounts or unit of events happened expressed in a specific measurement or expressed under time. Take for instance, an example, Joe eats 2 while John eats 4 meals in a day. The ratio can be Joe: John, 2:4 meals. While the rate, is Joe eats 2 meals/day and John 4 meals/day.<span>

Solve the equation for x. Enter your answers as radical expressions. Then estimate to one decimal place, if necessary.
Darya [45]

Hope you won't be turned off by a correction, but we really need to use the symbol " ^ " to denote exponentiation.

Thus, we have x^2 = 100

Taking the square root of both sides, we get x = plus or minus 10. Verify, please, that both x = -10 and x = +10 satisfy the given equation.

Write the slop-intercept form of the equation of each line. Please show your work.
solmaris [256]
Slope intercept form is : y = mx + b
as shown the line passes through (0,-3) so the y intercept is -3
The line now is y= mx - 3
the line passes through (4,-2) so substitute x=4, y = -2 to y=mx - 3, we have:
-2 = 4m -3 so m= 1/4

Ans: y = 1/4x -3
Plz vote me the brainliest ans (˘ ³˘)♥
