Answer:
1.75 gallons
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we need to calculate how far the hike is going up the trail. They first hike 2 miles and then another 1.75 miles after resting so...
2 + 1.75 = 3.75 miles
The trail is 3.75 miles long, the question states that the return path is 0.5 miles shorter, therefore...
3.75 - 0.5 = 3.25 miles
Leaving us with a total hiking distance of
3.75 + 3.25 = 7 miles.
Since each hiker will carry 0.25 gallons for each mile we simply need to multiply this amount by the total number of miles in the hike.
7 * 0.25 = 1.75 gallons
Finally, we can see that each hiker will carry a total of 1.75 gallons of water for the entire hike.
Answer: 30 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
57.5 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming this is a triangle
a is adjacent is ∠B
b is opposite of ∠B
Use the inverse tangent equation: 
This equals to 57.52880771
Answer:
The equation that best represents the line that is parallel to 3x - 4y = 7 and passes through the point (-4, -2) is y = 3/4x + 1.
Step-by-step explanation:
3x - 4y = 7 and (-4, -2)
First, solve for y in the equation:
3x - 4y = 7
-4y = -3x + 7
4y = 3x - 7
y = 3/4x - 7/4
m = 3/4 (This will be the slope of the parallel line.) and (-4, -2)
Use the point-slope equation to find the equation that will best represent a parallel line:
y − y1 = m(x − x1)
y - -2 = 3/4(x - -4)
y + 2 = 3/4x + 3 (the 4s cancel out)
(3/4 x 4/1 = 3)
y = 3/4x + 1
The graph that I attached is what these two equations would look like graphed. I am not sure what you mean by two options, I'm sorry!
