The clothes weigh 14.77 kilograms.

Given:
Weight of suitcase = 50 pounds
Towels = 20% of weight
Shoes = 15% of weight
Clothes = 65% of weight

convert pounds to kilograms using proportion:

<u>pounds</u>        <u>2.2</u> = <u>50</u>
kilograms       1           x

2.2x = 50 ⇒ x = 50/2.2 ⇒ x = 22.73 kgs

Clothes : 22.73 kgs * 65% = 14.77 kgs
Towels  : 22.73 kgs * 20% =   4.55 kgs
Shoes   : 22.73 kgs * 15% =   3.41 kgs

Step-by-step explanation:

For a triangle the area is calculated using the formula: Area = half of base by altitude. A = 0.5 X b X a.

So to calculate the volume of a triangular prism, the formula is: V = 0.5 X b X a X h.

John can jog twice as fast as he can walk. He was able to jog the first mile to his grandmas house but then he got tired and wal
statuscvo [17]

Answer:

  12 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

The relationship between jogging speed and walking speed means the time it takes to walk 4 miles is the same as the time it takes to jog 8 miles. Then the total travel time (0.75 h) is the time it would take to jog 1+8 = 9 miles. The jogging speed is ...

  (9 mi)(.75 h) = 12 mi/h . . . average jogging speed

__

<em>Check</em>

1 mile will take (1 mi)/(12 mi/h) = 1/12 h to jog.

4 miles will take (4 mi)/(6 mi/h) = 4/6 = 8/12 h to walk.

The total travel time is (1/12 +8/12) h = 9/12 h = 3/4 h. (answer checks OK)

_____

<em>Comment on the problem</em>

Olympic race-walking speed is on the order of 7.7 mi/h, so John's walking speed of 6 mi/h should be considered quite a bit faster than normal. The fastest marathon ever run is on the order of a bit more than 12 mi/h, so John's jogging speed is also quite a bit faster than normal. No wonder he got tired.
