Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
y=2/3x-3
Distance to travel = 20 m.
Let us determine the time, t, that each participant took to complete 20 m.
Barbara:
Average speed = (3 m)/(2 s) = 1.5 m/s
t = 20/1.5 = 13.3 s
Mark:
t = 5 s
Carlos:
y = x + 1
where
y = 20 m
x = time, t
Therefore
t =x = y - 1 = 20 - 1 = 19 s
Summary:
Barbara: 13.3 s
Mark: 5 s
Carlos: 19 s
Answer:
The winner is Mark
Answer:
36 millimeters
Step-by-step explanation:
From Pythagoras theorem, the square of the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the square of the two other legs
In mathematical terms;
a^2 = b^2 + c^2
Let a represent the hypotenuse = 39 mm and the length of one leg, say c, is 15 mm
Slotting in the values of a and b
39^2 = b^2 + 15^2
1521 = b^2 + 225
collect like terms
1521 - 225 = b^2
1296 = b^2
Take the square root of both sides
36 = b
Therefore b = 36 mm
12 is the answer to this question
