Answer: it will take him 4.5 hours to cover same distance

Step-by-step explanation:

Marathon runner covered the whole distance in 4 hours running at a constant speed of 8.1 km per hour.

Speed = distance / time

Distance = speed×time

Therefore, distance covered by the marathon runner in in 4 hours, running at a speed of 8.1 km per hour is

8.1 × 4 = 32.4 kilometers

if he decreased the speed to 7.2 km per hour, the distance remains 32.4 kilometers. Therefore,

At 7.2 km per hour, the time it would take him to cover the same distance would be

Distance/ speed = 32.4/7.2 = 4.5 hours

STatiana [176]
To determine the correct statement in the choices presented, we first have to solve the area of the tray. We assume it to be in a rectangular form so the area is:

Area = 10 in x 10 in x 7/2.54 in = 275.59 in³ for the paint tray
1 gallon paint = 231 in³ paint

Therefore, the correct answer is the first option. <span>The paint will not fill the tray by 44.59 in</span>³<span>.</span>

Answer:

Please check the explanation.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know the equation

y = kx

k = y/x

where k is the proportionality constant

so,

First ratio can be calculated as

Miles = 45

Hours = 3/4

The ratio = 45 / (3/4)

                = (45 × 4) / 3

                = 180/3

                = 60

Thus, the proportionality constant = 60

Thus, the remaining ratios can be calculated as:

The Pair (135, Hours)

135/Hours = 60

Hours = 135 / 60

           = 27/12

           = 9/4

           = 2.25

Thus, the pair is (135, 2.25)

The Pair (Miles, 3)

Miles/3 = 60

Miles = 60×3

         = 180

The Pair (90, Hours)

90/Hours = 60

Hours = 90 / 60

          = 3/2

          = 1.5

Thus, the complete table:

Miles           45           135           180             90

Hours           3/4          9/4           3                 3/2

Verification:

Miles / Hour =  45/(3/4) = 60

Miles / Hour = 135 / 2.25 =  60

Miles / Hour = 180 / 3 = 60

Miles / Hour  = 90 / 1.5 =  60
