A bee flies at 10 feet per second directly to a flowerbed from its hive. the bee stays at the flowerbed 12 minutes,and the flies directly back to the the hive 6 feet per second.it is away from the hive for a total of 16 minutes

Respuesta :

The equation for distance of the flowerbed from the hive.

(d/10)+(d/6) = 240

The distance of  the flowerbed from the​ hive = 900ft

How do you find speed and distance?

To calculate speed, divide the journey's distance by the time it took to travel, so speed = distance divided by time. Divide the distance by the speed to get the time. Multiply speed by time to find the distance. These equations can be simplified to s=d/t, where s represents speed, d is distance, and t is time.

According to the given information:

Let the distance of flower bed from hive to be = d

Time the bee stays at the flower bed = 11

Time the bee is away from the hive = 15

Time the bed was flying to the flower bed and back to the hive will be;

15 -11=4 minutes--------------changes to seconds by multiplying by 60

=4*60

=240 seconds

Formular for time is Distance/speed

Time of fright=240 seconds

Form expression for time of flying;

Time for flying from hive to flowerbed= d/10ft/s

Time for flying from flower bed to Hive= d/6ft/s

Solving these two equation we get:

A. (d/10)+(d/6) = 240

B. distance of  the flowerbed from the​ hive:

(8d/30) = 240

8d = 7200

d = 7200/8

d = 900

The distance of  the flowerbed from the​ hive = 900ft
