Answer:

Kindly check explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Maximum capacity of hard drive = 500 GB

Space used up = 58 GB

Size per movie = 8GB

Number of movies = x

1)

[(Number of movies * size per movie) + used up space] should be less than or equal to the maximum capacity to f the drive.

From Elena's inequality, the total space taken up by movies + used up space is greater than total capacity of hard drive.

That is ;

[(8x + 58 ≤ 500

8x ≤ 500 - 58

8x ≤ 442

x ≤ 442 / 8

x ≤ 55.25

The maximum number of movies Elena can download is 55

Write an equation that represents the distance d and Miles traveled by the monarch butterfly and t days
loris [4]

Complete question :

When the monarch butterfly is migrating to the south, it has an average speed of 80 miles per day. Write an equation that shows the realtionship between the number of days (t) and the distance (in miles) it has traveled (d)

Answer:

d = 80t

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Average speed = 80 miles per hour

Distance traveled (in miles) = d

Number of days = t

Equation which shows the Relationship between Number of days and distance traveled :

Recall :

Speed = distance / time

Speed = 80 ; distance = d ; time = t

80 = d/t

80 * t = d

d = 80t
