The distance from his home to his work place is 118.125 miles

<h3>How to find the distance from his home to his work place?</h3>

He drove from home to work at an average speed of 45 mph. Therefore,

speed = 45 mph

let

time = x

speed = distance / time

distance = 45x

His return trip home took 45 minutes longer because he could only drive at 35 mph. Therefore,

45 minutes = 0.75 hours

distance = 35(x + 0.75)

distance = 35x + 26.25

Therefore,

45x = 35x + 26.25

45x - 35x = 26.25

10x = 26.25

x = 26.25 / 10

x = 2.625

Therefore,

distance = 45(2.625) = 118.125 miles

HELP PLEASE!!!!!! Find the speed of an athlete who makes 4and3/4 laps in 3mins45 seconds on a 400m field in m/s​
Rom4ik [11]

Given:

An athlete who makes 4\dfrac{3}{4} laps in 3 mins 45 seconds on a 400m field.

To find:

The speed of the athlete in m/s.

Solution:

We know that,

Distance covered in 1 lap = 400 m

Distance covered in 4\dfrac{3}{4} laps = 4\dfrac{3}{4}\times 400 m

                                               = \dfrac{19}{4}\times 400 m

                                               = 1900 m

We know that,

1 minute = 60 seconds

3 minutes = 180 seconds

3 minutes 45 second = 180 + 45 seconds

                                   = 225 second

The speed of the athlete is:

Speed=\dfrac{Distance}{Time}

Speed=\dfrac{1900}{225}

Speed\approx 8.44

Therefore, the speed of the athlete is about 8.44 m/s.
