Answer:
please send the full question please
I can't tell what the numbers are on the first one but you got the second one right, and the last one would be different it would be 24 I believe.
Answer:
-2 and -7
Step-by-step explanation:
This problem is about using the Factoring X.
Two numbers will multiply to the number placed at the top. These same two numbers will add to the value placed on the bottom.
Let's look at the factors of 14.
1 • 14 = 14
2 • 7 = 14
Now let's look at their sums.
1 + 14 = 15
2 + 7 = 9
We can see that 2 and 7 multiply to 14 and add to 9.
However, we need them to add to -9.
Note that two negative numbers multiplied will become positive.
-2 • - 7 = 14
Now let's look at their sum.
-2 + (-7)
Simplify the negative.
-2 - 7 = -9
We can see that -2 and -7 multiply to 14 and add to -9.
Hope this helps!
Remark
You cannot give an answer to this unless you are give the fastest speed of a swimmer. That stat is not an easy one to decide upon. At what distance for example or do you eliminate distance? Since this is a college level question, I don't think it unreasonable that you have to research raw distance over fastest time.
The fastest speed I can find is 100 meters in 46.91 seconds. That means that the actual speed of the swimmer is 100 meters / 46.91 = 2.132 meters / second.
Givens
Set up a proportion with the numbers found and given
Speed of ball / speed of swimmer = 21.12 / 1
Speed of ball = x
Solution
Speed of swimmer = 2.132 m/s
x / 2.132 = 21.12 / 1 Multiply Both sides by 2.132
x = 21.12 * 2.132 / 1
x = 45.02 m/s
Answer
45.02 m/s
