The 1992 world speed record for a bicycle (human-powered vehicle) was set by Chris Huber. His time through the measured 200 m st

retch was a sizzling 6.509 s, at which he commented,"Cogito ergo zoom!" (I think, therefore I go fast!). a.) What was Chris Huber’s speed in meters per second(m/s)? b) In 2001, Sam Whittingham beat Huber’s record by 19.0 km/h. What was Whittingham’s time through the 200 m? (answer hours)

Answer:

Speed of Chris Huber = 30.726 m/s

Time taken by Sam = 5.55 s

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Distance = 200 m

Time taken by Chris Huber = 6.509 s

Now,

Speed of Chris Huber = \frac{\textup{Distance}}{\textup{Time}}

or

Speed of Chris Huber = \frac{\textup{200 m}}{\textup{6.509 s}}

or

Speed of Chris Huber = 30.726 m/s

Speed of Sam = Speed of Chris Huber + 19.0 km/h

Now,

1 km/hr = 0.277778 m/s

thus,

19.0 km/h = 19.0 × 0.27 = 5.278 m/s

thus,

Speed of Sam = 30.726 + 5.278 = 36.004 m/s

therefore,

Time taken by Sam = \frac{\textup{Distance}}{\textup{Speed}}

or

Time taken by Sam = \frac{\textup{200}}{\textup{36.004}} = 5.55 s

Urgent! Will award brainliest...<br> Factor the following polynomial:<br> <img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=3a%5E%7B2%7D-21a%2B3
umka2103 [35]

Answer:

3 (a-2) (a-5)

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step is to find the GCF. Here, it's 3.

3(a^2-7a+10)

Then, you factor the polynomial in the parenthesis.

To find the factors, you will need to find 2 numbers that add to -7, and multiply to 10. -2 and -5 add to -7 and multiply to 10. Now, replace -7a with the factors.

a^2-2a-5a+10

This of this polynomial as 2 problems.

a^2-2a        -5a+10

Then, factor again.

a^2-2a        -5a+10

a(a-2)       -5(a-5)

Then, you keep the factors in parenthesis, and combine the numbers on the outside.

(a-2)(a-5)(a-5)

Since, there are 2 of the same factor, you only need one.

(a-2)(a-5)

BUT REMEMBER!! In the very beginning, we had a 3 that we took out, we STILL need to add that to the final answer. The <u>final answer</u> is:

3 (a-2) (a-5)

The area of a square is 225cm². On the map drawn to scale 1 : 3 find the area of the square​
Olin [163]

Answer:

25 cm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

A scale drawing is a reduced form in terms of dimensions of an original image / building / object

the scale drawing is usually reduced at a constant dimension

scale of the drawing = original dimensions / dimensions of the scale drawing

Area if a square = length²

225 =  length²

length = √225

length = 15

if the map is drawn to scale of 1 : 3

the length on the map = 15/3 = 5

area of the square 5 x 5 = 25
