Answer:

<u>20 feet</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

We can solve this two different ways:

The 1st and easiest way would be to first divide 40/10 to get 4, and then divide 80/4 to get 20.

This method works well in this situation because all the numbers are easily divisible, but in some situations this method may give you decimals which would make things more difficult.

In a situation like that, you would create a simple equation using this format: y=m(x) in which y represents the total number of feet walked, m represents the number of seconds, and x represents number of feet walked per minute.

You would start by finding out the number of feet walked per minute. You do this by plugging the information you know into the equation. We know that the person walks 80 feet in 40 seconds so the equation would look like this: 80=40x

To solve for x, you would then divide 40 on both sides to get 2=x

Now that we know that the person walks 2 feet every second, we can plug the information into a new equation to find out how far they go in 10 seconds. This equation will look like this: y=10(2) and we can solve it to learn that y=20. This means that the person will walk 20 feet in 10 seconds.

Answer:

20 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{80 feet}{40 seconds}  = \frac{x feet}{10 seconds}

Simplify \frac{80}{40}

\frac{80}{40} = \frac{2}{1}

Every 1 second, a person will walk 2 feet.

\frac{x}{10} = \frac{20}{10}

X = 20 feet

Answer:

  B.  88°

Step-by-step explanation:

In a properly drawn circle graph, the central angle is proportional to the size of the number being displayed. Here, 122 of 500 selected football. Since the total angle of a circle is 360°, that fraction is ...

  (122/500)×360° = 87.84° ≈ 88°

Answer:

1/15

Step-by-step explanation:

There are a total of 10 fruits, 3 of which are apples.

The probability that the first selection is an apple is 3/10.

There are now 9 fruits remaining, 2 of which are apples.  So the probability that the second fruit is an apple is 2/9.

The total probability is (3/10) (2/9) = 1/15.
