Answer:
5.0 feet is the approximate answer
Answer: y = - (1/4) |x|
Justification:
The statement is confusing, so I will re-write it to avoid confusions:

"The
graph of y=|x| is
reflected across the x-axis and then scaled vertically by a factor of
1/4. What is
the equation of the new graph?
"
Answer
Solution:
1) Reflection acros the x-axis means (a,b) transforms into (a, -b). That is for the given x the reflected function will return the negative of the original value, that is:
y = - |x|
2) Scaling by a factor of 1/4 means that the new function is multiplied by 1/4
=> y = - (1/4) |x| which is the answer

Answer: independent variable: time (t). Dependent variable: distance (d).
Step-by-step explanation: an independent variable is a variable whose variation does not depend on that of another. In the given problem, the independent variable is time, because time will pass by no matter what (without depending in any other variable). The dependent variable in this case is the distance, because how far Jillian goes, depends on how much time she expends walking and jogging.
I believe the equation would be
160+0.2y
Because 160 deer and you round the 20% into a decimal point.
