First let's reduce the feet to miles

there are 5280 feet in a mile therefore

26400 feet=5 miles

31680 feet=6 miles

Jet A(the first jet) descends 5 miles in 96 miles

Jet B(the second jet) descends 6 miles in 120 miles

We can compare these as fractions to see which is steeper. This can be viewed as slope and the origin (0,0) is the airport.

slope: 6/120=?=5/96

1/20=?=5/96

Now we know that 5/100 =1/20 so 5/96 must be bigger than 5/100 because you are dividing by a smaller number.

so 1/20<5/96

So Jet B is descending steeper than Jet A.

As for linear model, I don't exactly know what your teacher means but I think I actually used the linear model when I'm thinking of steepness as slope in the coordinate plane, I will include a picture.

In this extremely zoomed out graph, you can see the blue line is just slighly higher than the red line(slope as in explanation is way easier to tell) this could be seen as the linear model) :) Hope it helped!

Using the figure of the bullseye above, what is the probability that a shooter will hit the bullseye two shots in a row? Express
Tpy6a [65]
The probability of hitting it once is the ratio of the bullseye area to the whole target.
So 144/484=.2975
For it to happen twice in a row, would be this squared which is .088=.09 or 9%

Simplify 9y+2y-5y please answer
Brums [2.3K]

Answer:

9y+2y-5y=6y

Step-by-step explanation:

So we have the expression:

9y+2y-5y

To simplify, simply combine the like terms. Therefore:

9y+2y-5y\\=11y-5y\\=6y

Further notes:

To understand why we can combine like terms in the first place, we just need to use the distributive property. So we have the expression:

9y+2y-5y

Now, factor out a y from the three terms:

=y(9+2-5)

Do all the operations inside the parenthesis:

y(9+2-5)\\=y(11-5)\\=y(6)=6y

And we moved the y back to the front!

This is the same result as before. When combining like terms, this is what we're essentially doing but without doing the distributive property manually. I hope you understand a bit better on how and why we can combine like terms!
