The distance y in miles traveled by a striped marlin in x hours is shown in the graph. Each ocean creature’s distance in miles is a direct variation of the time it travels in hours. Select which ocean creature is faster than the striped marlin. A tuna travels at a speed of 43.5 miles per hour.

A wahoo fish that travels 144 miles in 3 hours and 192 miles in 4 hours.

A swordfish whose distance y in miles is represented by the equation y=60x, where x s the number of hours.

A Mako shark whose distance y in miles is represented by the equation y=31x, where x is the number of hours.

  swordfish

Step-by-step explanation:

The graph shows the marlin travels 50 miles in 1 hour, and 150 miles in 3 hours. These numbers can be compared directly to those given for the tuna (43.5 miles in 1 hour) and the wahoo fish (144 miles in 3 hours).

The speeds of the swordfish and shark are the coefficients of x in their respective equations. The swordfish travels 60 mph, so is faster than the marlin. The shark travels 31 mph, so is slower.

total amount of money that he should pay if he has not used his duty free exemption is $98

step-by-step explanation:

given a united states citizen returning to the states declares the following items at the customs office: 3 shirts at $8.50 each 2 dresses at $27.50 each 1 pair of gold cuff links at $17.50 per pair. we have to find how much he pay

cost of 3 shirts if one cost at $8.50 is

cost of 2 dresses if one cost at $27.50 is  

cost of 1 pair of gold cuff at $17.50

so, total amount of money that he should pay if he has not used his duty free exemption is   $25.5+$55+$17.50=$98

answer is c
