Answer:

  a. 2 7/9 miles

  b. 21.6 minutes

  c. 8 1/3 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

The rate at which Catlin runs can be determined from the graph by finding the coordinates of a grid point that lies on the line. The line goes through the origin, so the relationship between time and distance is proportional.

We see that the point (miles, minutes) = (1 2/3, 12) lies on the graph, so the contant of proportionality is ...

  k = y/x = 12/(5/3) = 36/5 = 7.2 . . . . minutes/mile

__

<h3>a.</h3>

The proportion can be written ...

  distance/(20 minutes) = (1 mile)/(7.2 minutes)

  distance = (20/7.2) miles = 2 7/9 miles

Catlin will run 2 7/9 miles in 20 minutes

__

<h3>b.</h3>

The proportion can be written ...

  time/(3 miles) = (7.2 minutes)/(1 mile)

  time = (3)(7.2 minutes) = 21.6 minutes

Catlin was running 21.6 minutes

__

<h3>c.</h3>

In 1 hour, Catlin will run 3 times as far as in 20 minutes. Using the result from part A, we find ...

  3(2 7/9 miles) = 8 1/3 miles 8 1/3 miles

Catlin will run 8 1/3 miles in one hour.

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

Once we have a relationship between minutes and miles, we can write proportions with either of those numbers in the numerator or denominator. We find it convenient to put the unknown value in the numerator of a proportion, which is why the ratios are written differently in the different parts of the problem.

|–9.23 – 1.79| – |–7.34 – 2.57| (25 points)
galina1969 [7]

Answer:

1.11

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you ignore the absolute value sign and subtract normally: –9.23 – 1.79 = -11.02, –7.34 – 2.57 = -9.91.  Then now you add the absolute value to the numbers: |-11.02| - |-9.91| = 11.02 - 9.91 = 1.11.

If Mary pay $3695.20for principal and interest every month for 30 years on her $110,000 loan, how much interest will she pay ove
PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer:

  $1,220,200

Step-by-step explanation:

The total of Mary's payments is ...

  $3695.20/mo × 30 yr × 12 mo/yr = $1,330,200

The difference between this repayment amount and the value of her loan is the interest she pays:

  $1,330,200 -110,000 = $1,220,200 . . . total interest paid

_____

Mary's effective interest rate is about 40.31% per year--exorbitant by any standard.
