Jill ran faster. I know because I compared both of their unit rates.

Jack's unit rate is 5/42.5 = 0.118 mile per minute (rounded)

Jill's unit rate is 3/23.25 = 0.129 mile per minute (rounded)

Jill runs a greater part of a mile per minute than Jack does.
She is faster. There's no getting around it.

Jack: 42.5 ÷ 5 = 8.5
Which means Jack runs 1 mile in 8.5 minutes

jill: 23.25 ÷ 3 = 7.75
Which means Jill runs 1 mile in 7.75 minutes

Jill is faster

It will take Mr. warner 15 1/2 hours to install a fence. Each day he works 1 1/3 hours on the fence. After he finished working o

15.5-3.5=12. this is how many hours he has worked already.

12/1⅓=9. this is because how many hours he has worked per how many hours he worked per day to show how many days he worked

the answer is 9 days.

12hours * 1day/1⅓ hours
^^ignore that if it doesn't make sense, but basically the hours will cancel and you'd be left with days as your only unit to show why you would divide 12 by 1⅓

hope this helped!

Prove sin^2A + cos^2A = 1

Nady [450]

Step-by-step explanation:

${sin}^{2} A + {cos}^{2} A = 1 \\ lhs = {sin}^{2} A + {cos}^{2} A \\ = {sin}^{2} A + 1 - {sin}^{2} A \\ = 1 \\ = rhs \\ \therefore \: {sin}^{2} A + {cos}^{2} A = 1 \\$
