Answer:
C. 3 : 5
D. 24 : 40
Step-by-step explanation:
Select two ratios equivalent to 6 : 10
Checking all options
A. 20 : 12
20 / 12
= 10 /6
= 10 : 6
B. 32 : 50
= 32 / 50
= 16 / 25
C. 3 : 5
3 / 5
= 6 / 10
3/5 is equivalent to 6 / 10
D. 24 : 40
24 / 40 = 12 / 20
= 6 / 10
= 6 : 10
Options C and D are correct
Mel moves 50-35=15 feet in 5-2=3 seconds. Descent rate=15/3=5 ft/sec.
Victor moves 60-50=10 feet in 4-1=3 seconds. Descent rate=10/3=3⅓ ft/sec. Mel is faster at 5 ft/sec.
Since the parabola passes by the center its equation is:
y = ax². But it opens downward, that means the coefficient a is negative.
Then the equation becomes:
y = - ax², with x = 0 as its axis of symmetry.
We are given that the height is 84 ft when the opening downward is 42 ft.
That means to the (height) y, corresponds x =+21 & x=-21 (due to symmetry).
In order to calculate a let's plug y & x with their related values:
y = - ax²
84 = - a(21)²
84 = - a(441) and a = - 84/441 ↔ a = - 4/21
And the final equation is : y = -4/21. x²
Answer: 
Step-by-step explanation:
You know that the total time was: 7/8 hour
You also know that they spent 1/2 of the time at the beach.
Therefore, to calculate the time Zach and his dog spend at the beach (which you can call x) , you must multiply both fractions (7/8 and 1/2).
Then, you obtain the following result:
