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

y=600/3
y equals Start Fraction 600 over 3 End Fraction

3=600x
3 equals 600 x

600=3x
600 equals 3 x

y=600×3

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 7 x

y=125,000×7
y equals 125,000 times 7

x=125,000/7
x equals Start Fraction 125,000 over 7 End Fraction

125,000=7/x
125,000 equals Start Fraction 7 over x End Fraction

To calculate the number of hours a tiger will sleep in 7 weeks, we need to multiply the number of hours the tiger sleeps in a day (18 to 20 hours) by the number of days in 7 weeks.

Considering the minimum range of 18 hours, we have 18 hours/day * 7 days/week * 7 weeks = 882 hours.

Considering the maximum range of 20 hours, we have 20 hours/day * 7 days/week * 7 weeks = 980 hours.

Therefore, the tiger will sleep for approximately 882 to 980 hours in 7 weeks. The correct response is:
882 to 980 hours.

The correct equation that will help Jamal find how much he will earn if he continues at the same rate of pay for 7 years is:

$y = 125,000 \times 7$

This equation represents multiplying his annual salary ($125,000) by the number of years (7) to find the total earnings over that period of time.
