Answer:

5:00 pm

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x -----> the umber of hours

y ----> the total distance in miles

we know that

The distance is equal to the speed multiplied by the time

Find out the distance traveled by Ariel at 11:00 am

11:00 am-09:00 am=2 hours

45(2)=90 miles

so

<em>Ariel's linear equation is</em>

y=45x+90 ----> equation A

<em>Ariel's brother linear equation is</em>

y=60x ----> equation B

Equate equation A and equation B

60x=45x+90

Solve for x

60x-45x=90

15x=90

x=6\ hours

Adds 11:00 am + 6 hours=17:00 =5:00 pm

Nina's monthly budget is $2,250. Every month she makes the following payments: $175 for insurance, $129 for utilities, $283 for
choli [55]
The total costs that Nina would have to pay is the sum of the cost of insurance, utilities, and taxes.
                               C = $175 + $129 + $283 = $587
The highest house payment she could afford is then the difference between her budget and the costs,
                                  P = $2,250 - $587 = $1663
Thus, the answer would be letter B. House B because all the rest of the monthly payment are way over her budget.

Given that line s is perpendicular to line t, which statements must be true of the two lines? Check all that apply.
artcher [175]
The basis to respond this question are:

1) Perpedicular lines form a 90° angle between them.

2) The product of the slopes of two any perpendicular lines is - 1.

So, from that basic knowledge you can analyze each option:

<span>a.Lines s and t have slopes that are opposite reciprocals.

TRUE. Tha comes the number 2 basic condition for the perpendicular lines.

slope_1 * slope_2 = - 1 => slope_1 = - 1 / slope_2, which is what opposite reciprocals means.

b.Lines s and t have the same slope.

FALSE. We have already stated the the slopes are opposite reciprocals.

c.The product of the slopes of s and t is equal to -1

TRUE: that is one of the basic statements that you need to know and handle.

d.The lines have the same steepness.

FALSE: the slope is a measure of steepness, so they have different steepness.

e.The lines have different y intercepts.

FALSE: the y intercepts may be equal or different. For example y = x + 2 and y = -x + 2 are perpendicular and both have the same y intercept, 2.

f.The lines never intersect.

FALSE: perpendicular lines always intersept (in a 90° angle).

g.The intersection of s and t forms right angle.

TRUE: right angle = 90°.

h.If the slope of s is 6, the slope of t is -6

FALSE. - 6 is not the opposite reciprocal of 6. The opposite reciprocal of 6 is - 1/6.

So, the right choices are a, c and g.

lawyer [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The key to solving this question is to find the distance bwtween the two points given

distance=y2-y1/x2-x1

(2,4)(4,8)

2=x1,4=y1

4=x2

8=y2

8-4/4-2

4/2=2

The depth of the water is increasing by 2 ft each minute
