During a race, Bernie ran 9 meters every 4 seconds, while Wendel ran 2 meters every second and got a 9-meter head start. If the

race was 70 meters long, did Bernie ever catch up with Wendel in the race?

No, because Bernie had to run 9 meters 7.77777778 time (70/9) and each of those 9-meter sections took 4 seconds, so her time was 31.1111111 (7.77777778*4). While Wendel had to run 61 meters 70-his headstart (9 meters) (70-9). So he only had to run 30.5 blocks of 2 meters (61/2). And since they're only 1 second long, it's 30.5*1=30.5. The answer then is NO because (Bernie) 31.1111111 seconds > 30.5 seconds (Wendel).

Which table shows a proportional relationship between x and y ?
insens350 [35]

Answer:

Table C

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Table A to D

Required

Which shows a proportional relationship

To do this, we make use of:

k = \frac{y}{x}

Where k is the constant of proportionality.

In table (A)

x = 2, y = 4

k = \frac{y}{x}

k = \frac{4}{2}

k = 2

x = 4, y = 9

k = \frac{y}{x}

k = \frac{9}{4}

k = 2.25

Both values of k are different. Hence, no proportional relationship

In table (B)

x = 3, y = 4

k = \frac{y}{x}

k = \frac{4}{3}

k = 1.33

x = 9, y = 16

k = \frac{y}{x}

k = \frac{16}{9}

k = 1.78

Both values of k are different. Hence, no proportional relationship

In table (C):

x = 4, y = 12

k = \frac{y}{x}

k = \frac{12}{4}

k = 3

x = 5, y = 15

k = \frac{y}{x}

k = \frac{15}{5}

k = 3

x = 6, y = 18

k = \frac{y}{x}

k = \frac{18}{6}

k = 3

This shows a proportional relationship because all values of k are the same for this table

a 40-foot ladder leans outside against a the cafeteria. The ladder’s base is 20 feet from the cafeteria. To the nearest degree,
eimsori [14]

Answer:

60 degrees.

Step-by-step explanation:

We use trigonometry of a right angled triangle:

Adjacent side = 20 ft, Hypotenuse = 40 ft.

cos x = adjacent / hypotenuse = 20/40 = 1/2

x = 60 degrees.

Three potential employees took an aptitude test. Each person took a different version of the test. The scores are reported below
Margaret [11]

Answer:

ALISSA

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following scores :

NICO:

Score (x) = 81.6

Mean (m) = 72.6

Standard deviation (sd) = 15

EMILIO:

Score (x) = 225.3

Mean (m) = 205

Standard deviation (sd) = 29

ALISSA:

Score (x) = 8.08

Mean (m) = 7.2

Standard deviation (sd) = 0.4

STANDARDIZING THE DIFFERENT APTITUDE TEST SCORES:

OBTAINING THE ZSCORES :

Zscore = (x - mean) / standard deviation

NICO:

Zscore = (81.6 - 72.6) / 15

Zscore = 0.6

EMILIO:

Zscore = (225.3 - 205) / 29

Zscore = 0.7

ALISSA:

Zscore = (8.08 - 7.2) / 0.4

Zscore = 2.2

From the result of the Zscore, the best fit for the position is ALISSA
