A bee flies at 6 feet per second directly to a flowerbed from its hive the bee stays at the flowerbed for 17 minutes, and then flies directly back to the hive at 4 feet per second. It is away from the hive for a total of 22 mins

576 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

5 - 13 = 2 minutes x 60 =120 seconds that the bee spent flying back and forth.

a - Distance = Time x Speed

Time =Distance / Speed

 D / 12  +  D / 8 = 120, solve for D

b - D = 576 feet from the hive to the flowerbed.

i am currently in the exact same situation rn. algebra2/adv algebra is killing

step-by-step explanation:

step-by-step explanation:

12: 00 p.m. to 7: 00 p.m. is a total of 7 hours.

4: 00 p.m. to 7: 00 p.m. is a total of 3 hours.

this means that from 4: 00 p.m to 7: 00 p.m. this represents 3/7 of what was lost from 12: 00 p.m. to 7: 00 p.m.

after knowing this, after doing 11,600 - 6,800 = 4,800

4,800 represents 3/7 of what was lost for 7 hours.

we then divide 4,800 by 3 which gets 1,600.

because we know that 1,600 represents 1/7 of how much water was lost, we just have to multiply by 7, which gets 11,200.   after adding 11,200 to how much water was left at 7: 00 p.m. which was 6,800. 11,200 + 6,800 = 18,000

this means that the pool originally had 18,000 gallons in the pool.

you can also check your work by doing 18,000 - 4(1600), which becomes           1800 - 6400 which gets you 11,600.
