I use it all the time, but as my profession is engineering, mathematics is integral in my everyday life. I usually do it when evaluating for the magnitude of vector force components. Usually in 2D space, so Pythagorean theorem is quite useful.
Caitlin = 20 laps
Hannah = 4/5 as many laps
Multiply the laps swan by Caitlin (20) by 4/5
20 x 4/5 = 80/5 = 16
Hannah swam 16 laps
Answer:
35 miles per hour
Step-by-step explanation:
Ann travels a total of (100 +40) = 140 miles in (3 +1) = 4 hours. Her average speed is the ratio of these:
speed = distance/time
speed = (140 miles)/(4 hours) = 35 miles/hour
3.71 is the answer:)
