Answer:

<h2>The dependent variable is distance, the equation is y = 20x, and the dragonfly will travel 480 miles.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the graph, the dependent variable is Distance in miles, because it's on the vertical axis. Additionally, the independent variable is time in hours, because it's on the horizontal axis. However, you always put time as independent, because nothing affects time.

To find the equation, we just need to find the slope, using two points (0,0) and (2,40).

m=\frac{y_{2} -y_{1} }{x_{2} -x_{1} }=\frac{40-0}{2-0}=20

Therefore, the equation is y=20x, which shows a direct proportion between variables.

Now, in 24 hours, it would travel

y=20(24)=480

It would travel 480 miles.

Therefore, the right answer is the second choice.

40/2 = 20
so 
y = 20x

y = distance (miles) and x = time (hours)
so if x = 24 then y = 20x = 20(24) = 480

answer
<span>The dependent variable is distance, the equation is y = 20x, and the dragonfly will travel 480 miles. </span>

Rename 5/6 and 5/8 using the least common denominator.
Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

5/6 = 20/24

5/8 = 15/24

Step-by-step explanation:

These are the answers because:

1) First, the least common denominator is 24 because 8 x 3 is 24 and 6 x 4 is 24

2) Next, multiply the numerators with the same number you multiplied with the denominator

5 x 3 = 15

5 x 4 = 20

3) Therefore, the answers are:

5/6 = 20/24

5/8 = 15/24

Hope this helps!

The picture below shows a pole and its shadow:
Angelina_Jolie [31]

The answer is 112 centimeters.

As this problem represents a right triangle, here we need to apply the Pythagorean Theorem.

  • h = √113² - 15²
  • h = √12769 - 225
  • h = √12544
  • h = 112 centimeters
