Train trouble (H). Train tracks ae made of metal. Consequently, they expand when it's warm and shrink when it's cold. When riding in a train, you hear the clickety-clack of the wheels going over small gaps left in the tracks to allow for this expansion. Suppose you were a beginner at laying railroad tracks and forgot to put in the gaps. Instead, you make a track 1 mile long that was firmly fixed at each end. On a hot day, suppose the track expanded by 2 feet and therefore buckled up in the middle, creating a triangle. Roughly how high would the midpoint be? Now you may appreciate the click-clack of the railroad track.

answer: first option i.e. 'a' is correct.

step-by-step explanation:

since we have given that

number of minutes to wrap a small gift box = 4 minutes

we need to find the number of gifts to be wrapped in 5 minutes

since there is a direct variation, as the number of minutes will increase with   number of gifts to be wrapped.

so, let the number of gifts to be wrapped in 5 minutes be x.

so, it becomes,

hence, first option 'a'   is correct.

10.4 inches

step-by-step explanation:

2x2x2.6

since we know that the two functions are equal, f (x) = g

(x), therefore when we equate the two equations the result should be similar to

3x = x – 4:

a. f(x) = 3x, g(x) = x – 4

equating the two functions:

3x = x – 4             (correct)

so we now got our answer (a)

      2

  2 is to go somewhat to the top right of a because it is squared    

v= a h/3
