Answer:

2.25 feet

31.5 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the person travels 9 feet every 4 seconds, it means that in one second, the distance walked

= 9/4

= 2.25 feet

If the person walks 2.25 feet in a second then in 14 seconds, the distance walked

= 2.25*14/1

= 31.5 feet

Barrett and Penelope have some quarters for the vending machine.

lutik1710 [3]

Answer:

if we take the number of quarters Barrett have to be x we know Penelope has twice that ie 2x. so in total they have 2x+x = 60, 3x = 60; so x= 60/3 = 20.

Barrett has 20 quarters.

On a coordinate plane, 2 straight lines are shown. The first solid line has a positive slope and goes through (0, negative 2) an

ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

$y\geq x-2$

$x+2y$

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the equation of the first inequality

Find the equation of the first solid line

we have the ordered pairs

(0,-2) and (2,0)

Find the slope

The formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to

$m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}$

substitute the values

$m=\frac{0+2}{2-0}$

$m=\frac{2}{2}$

$m=1$

The equation in slope intercept form is equal to

$y=mx+b$

we have

$m=1$

$b=-2$ ---> the y-intercept is given

substitute

$y=x-2$

Remember that

Everything to the left of the solid line is shaded

The inequality is

$y\geq x-2$

step 2

Find the equation of the second inequality

Find the equation of the second dashed line

we have the ordered pairs

(0,2) and (4,0)

Find the slope

The formula to calculate the slope between two points is equal to

$m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}$

substitute the values

$m=\frac{0-2}{4-0}$

$m=\frac{-2}{4}$

$m=-\frac{1}{2}$

The equation in slope intercept form is equal to

$y=mx+b$

we have

$m=-\frac{1}{2}$

$b=2$ ---> the y-intercept is given

substitute

$y=-\frac{1}{2}x+2$

Remember that

Everything below and to the left of the line is shaded

The inequality is

$y$

Rewrite

Multiply by 2 both sides

$2y$

$x+2y$

therefore

The system of inequalities is

$y\geq x-2$

$x+2y$

see the attached figure to better understand the problem

Which describes the calculations that could be used to solve this problem? Lauren has 42 muffins to pack into boxes and bags. Sh

Marat540 [252]

The correct answer is D, 'Subtract 42 - 12. Then divide the difference by 3'. Lauren has 42 muffins, and she can put 12 of them into a box, leaving her with 30 muffins to fit into bags. If she can fit 3 muffins in each bag, and she wants to know how many bags she needs, then she needs to divide 30 by 3 to get 10. This means that she will need 10 bags of 3 muffins to completely pack 30 muffins. She started with 42, but 12 of those fit into the original box, so we don't have to worry about it.

Hope this helps!
