Write a direct variation equation to find the number of miles a jet travels in 3 hours if it is flying at a rate of 600 mph.(1 point)
Responses
600=3x
600 equals 3 x
y=600/3
y equals Start Fraction 600 over 3 End Fraction
y=600×3
y equals 600 times 3
3=600x
Responses

600 equals 3 x
y=600/3
y equals Start Fraction 600 over 3 End Fraction
y=600×3
y equals 600 times 3
3=600x
The correct direct variation equation to find the number of miles a jet travels in 3 hours if it is flying at a rate of 600 mph would be:
y = 600 * 3
where y is the number of miles the jet travels in 3 hours.
y = 600 * 3
where y is the number of miles the jet travels in 3 hours.

To find the number of hours a tiger will sleep in 7 weeks, we need to multiply the range of hours the tiger sleeps in a day (18 to 20 hours) by the number of days in 7 weeks (49 days).
Multiplying 18 hours by 49 days gives us 882 hours, and multiplying 20 hours by 49 days gives us 980 hours.
Therefore, the tiger will sleep between 882 to 980 hours in 7 weeks.
The correct response is: 882 to 980 hours.
Multiplying 18 hours by 49 days gives us 882 hours, and multiplying 20 hours by 49 days gives us 980 hours.
Therefore, the tiger will sleep between 882 to 980 hours in 7 weeks.
The correct response is: 882 to 980 hours.
Jamal earns $125,000 a year as a systems analyst. He wants to know how much he will earn if he continues at the same rate of pay for 7 years. Which equation will help him find this amount?(1 point)
Responses
125,000=7x
125,000 equals Start Fraction 7 over x End Fraction
x=125,000/7
x equals Start Fraction 125,000 over 7 End Fraction
y=125,000×7
y equals 125,000 times 7
125,000=7x
Responses
125,000=7x
125,000 equals Start Fraction 7 over x End Fraction
x=125,000/7
x equals Start Fraction 125,000 over 7 End Fraction
y=125,000×7
y equals 125,000 times 7
125,000=7x
The correct equation to help Jamal find out how much he will earn if he continues at the same rate of pay for 7 years is:
y = 125,000 * 7
Where y represents the earnings in 7 years.
y = 125,000 * 7
Where y represents the earnings in 7 years.
