Hello!

First of all, we can subtract the stretching time. This gives us 20. If we divide by the four laps we get 5 minutes per lap.

Now, one lap is 400 meters (most tracks are), which is equal to 15,748.03 inches. This means it takes her five minutes to walk 15,748.03 inches. This is also equal to 300 seconds, so it takes her 300 minutes per 15,748.03 inches. 

But if we round our big inches number to the nearest ten thousandth, we get 16,000, so in a simpler form her pace is 300/16,000. But we need to find in per second. Therefore we will divide by 300 to find how many inches she walks per second.  This means she walks about 53.33 inches per second.

I hope this helps!

Answer:

Clare spent a total of 25 minutes at the track.

She spent 5 minutes stretching and walked 4 laps around the track.

So, we can say the total time spent on the track can be denoted by :

5+4x=25 where x is the time it took her to walk one lap.

So, we can solve for x here to get how long did it take her to walk each lap.

4x=25-5

4x=20

x = 5

So, it took Claire 5 minutes to walk each lap.

For the second part of the question, we need the distance of a lap, which is not given.

Is the relationship shown by the data linear? x -9, -5, -1, 3 y -2,-7,-12, -17
Temka [501]
                x               y
            ------           -----
              -9              -2
             -5               -7
             -1              -12
              3               -17

ur x's all have a difference of 4, and ur y's all have a difference of -5...so yes, this is linear with a slope of (-7+2) / (-5 + 9) = -5/4

If the mean weight of 4 backfield members on the football team is 222 lb and the mean weight of the 7 other players is 198 lb, w
hoa [83]

To find the Mean or Average you have to add up all numbers it is asking for which in case are 222 and 198.

so you will add 222+198

That will equal 420

Then you will divide with the amount added together which is 2

420/2=210

so the mean of the 11 people is 210 or 210lbs

A craft store buys 50 yards of satin ribon for $12.50. The store sells the ribbon by the foot. A customer can purchase 5 feet of
amm1812

Answer:

$8.1

Step-by-step explanation:

Convert 45 yards of ribbon to feet through proper conversion factor.  

  (45 yards)(3 ft / 1 yard) = 135 feet

Divide this number by 5 to determine the number of 5-ft ribbon that customers can purchased.

    n = 135 ft / 5 ft = 27

Then, multiply by $0.80.

   R = (27)($0.80) = $21.6

The profit is equal to $21.6 and $13.50,

    P = $21.6 - $13.50 = $8.1

Answer: $8.1
