Answer:

James can walk 3.75 miles per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use conversion factors to determine the walking speed of James in miles per hour.

James takes 120 steps/minute with each step 2.75 feet long.

∴ If one step is equal to 2.75 feet then 120 steps per minute is:

= 2.75 (feet/step) × 120(steps/minute)

Where steps cancel out and you are left with:

= 330 feet/minute

1 Foot is equal to 0.00018939 miles. Therefore we can determined miles per hour as:

= (330 feet/minute) × (0.00018939miles/foot) × (60 minutes/1 hour)

Feet cancels out with the foot and minutes cancel out with minutes and you are left with:

= 3.75 miles/hour

Speed=120step/min=720step/h
Distance=720step/h×2.75feet/step=1980feet/h=0.375miles/h
So the answer is: he can walking 0.375miles per hour

Three pencils cost 75p altogether. how much will it cost to buy 6 pencils?
Svetllana [295]
The cost for six pencils would be a total of 150p
The reason why is if three pencils cost 75p and you want to know what the cost of six, since three is half of six you would do this (if 3=75p then 3*2=75p*2 which is 6=150p). As shown, you multiply each side by 2 or double each side

What is the total perimeter of the pitch and seating area?
natima [27]
1m = 100 cm

so
40 m = 4,000 cm
25 m = 2,500 cm
10 m = 1,000 cm

perimeter of big rectangle = 2(4,000 + 2000) = 12,000 cm
perimeter of small rectangle on the left: 2(2,500 + 800) = 6,600 cm
perimeter of small rectangle on the right: 2(1,000 + 800) = 3,600 cm
perimeter of circle = πd = 3.141593 x 200 = 628.32 cm

total area of the pitch and seating area :
=  12,000 + 6,600 + 3,600 + 628.32 = 22,828.32<span> cm

answer
</span>22,828.32 cm<span>
