Using proportions, the correct representation of that time period is of 4.47 minutes.

<h3>What is a proportion?</h3>

A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three. Due to this, relations between variables, either direct(when both increase or both decrease) or inverse proportional(when one increases and the other decreases, or vice versa), can be built to find the desired measures in the problem, or equations to find these measures.

We have that one minute has 60 seconds, hence the proportion that the 28 seconds correspond of a minute is:

28/60 = 0.47 min.

Hence the correct representation of that time period is of 4.47 minutes.

A square rug measures 8 feet by 8 feet. find the diagonal distance of the rug to the nearest whole number
Tanzania [10]
This is a right angle triangle and you use the Pythagorean theorem to solve for the hypotenuse (the diagonal)

A^2 + B^2 = C^2
8^2 + 8^2 = C^2
64 + 64 = C^2
128 = C^2
C = square_root (128)
C = 11 (to the nearest whole number)

The diagonal is 11 feet (to the nearest whole number)

I need help with this equation. 9q - 14 + 3(q - 8) = 7 I looked it up and the answer was 3.75, however I don't understand how it
coldgirl [10]
Parentheses first

9q-14+3q-3(8)=7
9q-14+3q-24=7

Combine like terms

9q + 3q - 14 - 24 = 7
12q -38=7

add 38 to both sides

12q - 38 + 38 = 7 + 38

12q = 45

divide both sides by 12

q = 45/12
q = 3.75
