Question

A rabbit is 4m away from its burrow. Each hop takes it 0.4m farther from the burrow. The following diagram shows that there is a tasty plant that is 6m from the burrow. Which equation can we use to determine h, the number of hops it takes the rabbit to reach the plant?

A 6h+0.4=4
B 4h+0.4=6
C 4+0.4h=6
D 6+0.4h= 4

Answer 1

C

Explanation:

Because it is boyyyys

Answer 2

The correct option is: C.
`4+0.4h = 6`

Explanation:

Each hop takes it 0.4 meter further from the burrow.

If the number of hops the rabbits takes to reach the plant is
`h`, then the total distance it traveled to reach the plant will be:
`0.4h` meters.

As the rabbit was initially 4 meter away from it's burrow, so the distance from the burrow to the plant will be:
`(4+0.4h) meters`

Given that, the plant is 6 meters away from the burrow.

So, the equation that we can use to determine the number of hops it takes the rabbit to reach the plant will be:
`4+0.4h = 6`
