Answer:

300 meters per minute

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1

Determine the fraction of the total distance for each part of the race.

Given:

1st part of race = 4/9 of total distance

2nd part of race = 2/5 of remaining distance

Step 2

Determine the distance of the third part of the race.

Given:

time = 15 minutes

speed = 300 meters per minute

Step 3

If the third part of the race (which is 1/3 of the total distance) is 4500m, then the distance of the whole race is:

Step 4

Determine the distance of the 1st part of the race:

Step 5

Determine the speed of the 1st part of the race:

Given:

time = 20 minutes

distance = 6000 m

How can you solve standard form and intercept form?

laiz [17]

Answer:

The standard form of such an equation is Ax + By + C = 0 or Ax + By = C. When you rearrange this equation to get y by itself on the left side, it takes the form y = mx +b. This is called slope intercept form because m is equal to the slope of the line, and b is the value of y when x = 0, which makes it the y-intercept.

Triangle Review Last one (Math)

Anni [7]

Answer:

A=30

Step-by-step explanation:

Set your equation up as following:

180=90+(x+37)+(x+67)

180=90+37+67+2x

180-90-37-67=2x

-14=2x

-14/2=x

-7=x

Angle A = x+37

A=-7+37

A=30

What are the zeros of the quadratic function f(x) = 2x2 – 10x – 3?

Ipatiy [6.2K]

Answer:

$x = \frac{ 5 \ + \ \sqrt{31}}{2} \ , \ x = \frac{ 5 \ - \ \sqrt{31}}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$2x^2 - 10x - 3 = 0 \\\\a = 2 \ , b = - 10 \ , \ c = - 3 \\\\x = \frac{-b^2\ \pm \ \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac}}{2a}\\\\x = \frac{10 \ \pm \sqrt{(-10)^2 - ( 4 \times 2 \times -3)} }{2 \times 2}\\\\x = \frac{10 \ \pm \sqrt{(100 - ( -24 )} }{4}\\\\x = \frac{10 \ \pm \sqrt{(100 + 24 } }{4}\\\\x = \frac{ 10 \ \pm \sqrt{124}}{4}\\\\x = \frac{ 10 \ \pm \sqrt{4 \times 31}}{4}\\\\x = \frac{ 10 \ \pm \sqrt{2^2 \times 31}}{4}\\\\x = \frac{ 10 \ \pm2 \sqrt{31}}{4}\\\\x = \frac{ 5 \ \pm\sqrt{31}}{2}\\\\$

$x = \frac{ 5 \ + \ \sqrt{31}}{2} \ , \ x = \frac{ 5 \ - \ \sqrt{31}}{2}$

Which excel cell entry will calculate the square root of 165? =sqrt[165] sqrt(165) sqr(165) =sqrt(165)?

svetoff [14.1K]

Excel expects a + or = sign before math calculations.
Also, for arguments of functions (such as sqrt), parentheses "()" are used. Brackets "[]" are not acceptable.
That leaves only one remaining option.
