----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Find the duration
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Time : 9:00am to 10:15am 
Duration: 1hour 15 mins or 1.25hours

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Find difference in distance travelled between the two cyclists.
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Difference in speed = 6km/h
1 hour = 6 km
1.25 hours = 7.5km

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Find the distance the cyclist traveled
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
42.5 - 7.5 = 35km
35km ÷ 2 = 17.5km

The slower cyclist traveled 17.5 km in the 1.25 hours

17.5 + 7.5 = 25 km

The faster cyclist traveled 25km in the 1.25 hours

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Find the speed of the slower cyclist
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1.25 hour = 17.5 km
1 hour = 17.25 ÷ 1.25
1 hour = 14km

The cyclist was traveling at 14km/h

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Find the speed of the faster cyclist
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1.25 hour = 25km
1 hour = 25 ÷ 1.25
1hour = 20 km

The cyclist was traveling at 20km/hour

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Answer: The speed were 14km/h and 20 km/h

dezoksy [38]
For the answer to the question above, the probability that Eduardo pulls out a girl the first time is 16/26 (26 - 10 = 16) which means that pulling out a girl a second time would be 15/25. To find out the probability of both, you have to multiply the fractions together. So (16 × 15)/(25 × 26) which is 240/650. You can simplify this to 24/65, and I believe that is the furthest you can simplify it, which means that the answer is 24/65, I hope this helps!

What is the slope of a line is parallel to y=(1/2)x=3
aniked [119]
Hi there! The answer is (1/2)

I suppose you mean the slope of a line that is parallel to y = (1/2)x + 3.

This equation is written in slope-intercept form, which means that the number in front of x represents the slope of the line. The other number represents the y-intercept.

A line that is parallel to another line, will be a line with the same slope. Since the slope of y = (1/2)x + 3 is (1/2), the slope of a line parallel to this line is (1/2) as well.

~ Hope this helps you!

-4 + 11 = 7         -------->up 11

Answer: left 8;  up 11

3)

C(3,-1) , left 4 up 1

3 - 4 = -1    -------->left 4

-1 + 1 = 0   -------->up 1

a)

(x , y) -->(x - 4 , y +1)

C(3, -1) -->C'(-1 , 0)

b)
