The race is 111.6 m long.
8 hurdles spaced 12.3 m apart means 7 spaces that are 12.3 m in length; 7*12.3 = 86.1
Add to this the distance to the first hurdle and the distance from the last hurdle:
86.1+15+10.5 = 111.6 m
Answer:
A :-) Given -
perimeter = 65 inches
Side ‘a’ = 2x
Side ‘b’ = 3 1 by 4x + 1
Solution -
Perimeter = 65
= a + b = 65
= 2x + 3 1 by 4x + 1 = 65
( 3 1 by 4 = 4 x 3 + 1 = 12 + 1 by 4
= 13 by 4 )
= 2x + 13 by 4x + 1 = 65
= 2x + 13 by 4x = 65 - 1
= 2x + 13 by 4x = 64
= 15 by 4 x = 64
= x = 64 x 4 by 15
= x = 256 by 15
= x = 17.06
.:. The value of x = 17.06.
