Answer:
21
Step-by-step explanation:
21 water stations
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question, we are informed that a marathon is 26.2 miles long and that there is a water station every 1 1/4miles along the race route and at the finish line.
To get the number of water stations that are needed for this marathon, we divide 26.2 miles by 1 1/4miles. This will be:
= 26.2miles/1 1/4 miles
= 26.2 miles/1.25 miles
= 20.96
= 21 water stations
80% of 80 is 64. Hope this helps:)
x = -1 makes the lengths of segments PQ and PR equal zero.
That is not possible, so the solution x = -1 is discarded.
x = 8
PS = 3x + 3 + 21
PS = 3x + 24
PS = 3(8) + 24
PS = 24 + 24
PS = 48
