A skydiver descended at a constant rate after opening her parachute. Three minutes after she opened her parachute, she had descended 3,168 feet. Five minutes after she opened her parachute, she had descended a total of 5,280 feet.

At what rate was the skydiver descending, in feet per minute?
feet per minute

Answers

Answer 1
1,056 feet per minute
Answer 2
if you look at it as a graph, you’re basically finding the slope. equation for slope is
b= y2-y1
———- so b= 5280-3168 2112
x2-x1 —————— = ——— = 1056
5-3 2


answer: 1056 feet. hope this helps :)

There are 9 people going on a trip. They purchased coach tickets for $160, and first class tickets for $1180. The total budget to spend was $4500. How many first class tickets did they buy? How many Coach tickets did they buy? Show your work.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

There are 9 people going on a trip

They purchased coach tickets =$160

first class tickets =$1180

total budget to spend = $4500

Let coach tickets=X

So first class tickets=9-x

160x+1180(9-x)=4500

160+10620-1180x=4500

160x-1180x=4500-10620

-1020x=-6120

X=6120/1020

X=6

So answer

Coach tickets=X=6

First class tickets=(9-x)

Answer: 120

120

Step-by-step explanation:

I honestly can’t explain but I think you have to do this (actually I did the work so I’m right)

P/w = part/whole = ?/400

%/100= percent/100 = 30%/100

These numbers are equivalent

If you don’t understand the top then here is how to do the work-

400x30=12000

12000/100=120

Therefore it’s 120

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\displaystyle y=8x[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given a table and we want to determine a linear equation (in slope-intercept form) that represents this table.

So, we will first need to determine the slope. We can use the slope formula:

[tex]\displaystyle m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]

Where (x₁, y₁) and (x₂, y₂) are two points.

We have three points: (1, 8), (2, 16), and (3, 24).

Let’s pick two. We can use (1, 8) and (2, 16).

So, let (1, 8) be (x₁, y₁) and let (2, 16) be (x₂, y₂). Substitute appropriately:

[tex]\displaystyle m=\frac{16-8}{2-1}[/tex]

Evaluate:

[tex]\displaystyle m=\frac{8}{1}=8[/tex]

So, our slope is 8.

Now, we can determine the equation using point-slope form:

[tex]\displaystyle y-y_1=m(x-x_1)[/tex]

Where m is our slope and (x₁, y₁) is a point.

We know that the slope is 8, so we will substitute 8 for m.

We can use any of our three points for the point. Let’s use (1, 8) for consistency. So, let (1, 8) be (x₁, y₁). Substitute appropriately:

[tex]\displaystyle y-8=8(x-1)[/tex]

Solve for y. Distribute the right:

[tex]\displaystyle y-8=8x-8[/tex]

Add 8 to both sides:

[tex]\displaystyle y=8x[/tex]

And we have our equation.

Notice that this is a direct variation or proportional equation as we don’t have a y-intercept.

Answer:I believe its y=8x or y=8

Each pair of points lies on a line with the given slope. Find y.

Answers

Answer:

3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

If slope is 1/4, you have to assume it is multiplied by x. x in the second coordinate is 3. So you place in

1/4(x)=y

1/4(3)=y

3/4=y

And the other one is incorrect

1/4(x)=y

1/4(7)=y

1 3/4 =y

Mrs. Kelly bought a bag of flour that holds 1623 cups of flour. Each loaf of banana bread uses 23 cup of flour.

How many loaves of banana bread can she make?

Answers

Answer:

69 loaves

Step-by-step explanation: (Sorry if you don't understand I am not that good at explaining)

First you need to divide 1,623 by 23 because each loaf is 23 cups of flour.

So 1,623 divided by 23 equals 70.56 but you can't have a fractioned number so it needs to be a whole loaf of bread so she can make 69 loaves of bread

Answer:
70.57 loaves of banana bread
Explaintion:
1,623 ➗ 23 = 70.5652173913043

General Formulas and Concepts:

Order of Operations: BPEMDASEquality PropertiesDistributive Property

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define equation

[tex]q=p(r+s)[/tex]

Step 2: Solve for r

Distribute p:                              [tex]q=pr+ps[/tex]Subtract ps on both sides:       [tex]q-ps=pr[/tex]Divide both sides by p:            [tex]\frac{q-ps}{p} =r[/tex]Rewrite:                                     [tex]r=\frac{q-ps}{p}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation: To solve for r, start by distributing the p

through the parentheses on the left side to get q = pr + ps.

Next, isolate the r term by subtracting ps from both sides to get -ps + q = pr.

Finally, to get r by itself, divide both sides by p and we have -ps + q/p = r.

When a number with an exponent is being raised to an exponent, the solution would have the exponents multiplying each other:
