Answer:

Each lap took him 48 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Pierce swims 10 laps in 8 minutes.

Let the amount of time he spent for each lap = t minutes.

Then, since each lap takes equal time, the total time taken for 10 laps = 10t minutes.

But, it is given that the total time taken for 10 laps = 8 minutes.

Therefore,

10t = 8

Divide both sides by 10.

t = 0.8 minutes or

t = 48 seconds

Solve each equation. Be sure to check for extraneous solution -7= |a-3|/-2
stepan [7]

Answer:

a = -11, 17.

Step-by-step explanation:

-7 =  |a-3| / -2

Multiply both sides by -2:

|a - 3| = 14

So a - 3 = 14

Giving a = 17

or

a - 3 =- -14

giving a = -11.

Checking these values:

-7 = |17-3| / -2 = 14/-2 = -7  

- so a = 17 is a solution.

-7 = |-11-3| / -2 = 14/-2 = -7

so a = -11 is also a solution.
