Answer:

0.12 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

just think - how long does it take you to travel for example 30 km, if you are going 60 km/h ?

you have to divide 30 by 60 and get 0.5 or 1/2. meaning it takes you (logically) 30 minutes or half an hour to do so.

it is the same principle for all these kinds of questions.

we only need to keep an eye on the dimension of what we are talking about. is it hours or seconds ? meters or kilometers ? and do in

we need here to focus on seconds and to calculate

3.6×10⁷ / 3×10⁸ = 3.6 / 3×10¹ = 1.2 / 10 = 0.12 seconds

or

1.2 \times  {10}^{ - 1}

seconds

Write an equation in slope-intercept form for the line that has a slope of -4/5 and passes through (0, 7).
patriot [66]

Answer:

A. y = -\frac{4}{5}x + 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope intercept form is y = mx + b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept

<em>It gives us the slope, so we can plug that in:</em> y = -\frac{4}{5}x + b

<em>Next, it gives us a point, so we can plug in the x and y into our equation and solve for b when (x, y)</em>

y = -\frac{4}{5}x + b

7 =  -\frac{4}{5}(0) + b

7 = b

<em>Last, complete our equation:</em>

y = -\frac{4}{5}x + b

y = -\frac{4}{5}x + 7

In a spelling bee, Anish's placement is both the 11th highest and the 25th lowest among all the spellers who participated. How m
Vlad [161]

Answer: There are 35 spellers participated in the spelling bee.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Rank of Anish's placement at the highest = 11 th

Rank of Anish's placement at the lowest = 25 th

We need to find the number of spellers participated in the spelling bee.

So, Number of spellers participated in the spelling bee is given by

Highest + Lowest - 1

= 11 + 25 - 1

= 36 - 1

= 35

Hence, there are 35 spellers participated in the spelling bee.

A small junior college had an enrollment of 7,843 students in the year 1990 and 8,793 students in the year 2000. Let x=0 represe
abruzzese [7]

Correct answer is: (0,7843) and (10,8793)

Solution:-

Given that a junior college has an enrollment of 7843 students in 1990 and 8793 students in year 2000.

We have to write this data as (x,y) .

Where x= years after 1990 and y=number of students enrolled.

Since in 1990, 7843 students enrolled, x = 1990-1990=0

And y=7843.

Hence one ordered pair is (0,7843).

Let us find the years after 1990 for 2000 = 2000-1990 =10

Hence another ordered pair is (10,8793).

Whats the slope of the line?
TiliK225 [7]

Answer:

m = rise/run = 4/5.

Step-by-step explanation:

This line goes throught the "exact" grid intersections (-2, 0) and (3, 4).  As we move from the first point to the second, we see that x increases by 5 (this is the 'run') and y increases by 4 (this is the 'rise').  Thus, the slope of this line is m = rise/run = 4/5.
