Answer:

hello your question is incomplete attached below is the complete question

answer :

<em>Daniels sister is not correct because the time that will be taken by Daniel will be greater than the initial total time taken by Daniel.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>First determine the time it will take Daniel to reach the Boat and the jogging time</u>

time = distance / rate

where distance can be calculated using this equation: sin 53° = 400 / x

hence x ( distance ) = 500 ft

rate = 150

therefore Time ( t )  to reach boat = 500 / 150 = 3.33 minutes

Time for jogging ( as calculated ) = 3.69 minutes

therefore total time taken by Daniel = 3.33 + 3.69 = 7.02 minutes

<u>Finally determine if Daniel's sister is correct that he should have swam to the boat ramp and then jogged </u>

lets assume Distance to swim  =  x  ( according his sister )

determine the value of x = \sqrt{400^2 + 1400^2 }   therefore X = 1456.02 feet

∴

Total time to be taken if Daniel follows his sister's instruction  = 1456.02 / 150 = 9.71 minutes

<em>Daniels sister is not correct because the time that will be taken by Daniel will be greater than the initial total time taken by Daniel.</em>

Answer:

2y - 6

Step-by-step explanation:

5y - 3(y + 2)

distribute

5y + (-3 * y) + (-3 * 2)

simplify

5y -3y + ( -3 * 2)

5y - 3y + ( -6)

5y - 3y - 6

combine like terms

5-3 = 2

Answer:

The graph is not a function of x because x=0 intersects the graph at two points.

Step-by-step explanation:

The vertical line test is when you draw, well, a vertical line through the graph. the slope of a vertical line is undefined, and the formula written as x=_. So we can eliminate the choices with y=_.

We can clearly see that this graph isn't a function, so we can eliminate the answer choices that say that the graph is a function.

Just in case, draw a line at x=0, to check that it does indeed cross the graph in 2 places.
