We know that speed * time = distance
Before we start we need to make sure the units for all three numbers are right
The time is 1/3 of a hour, 1/3*60 = 20 minutes
x * 20 = 22.5
x *2 * 10 = 22.5
2x = 2.25
x = 1.125
The answer is y= 3/4x - 4.
Percentage is the same as a fraction over 100, where the number 100 represents a 'whole'.
Therefore, if 65% are male, it means if there were 100 runners in total, 65 of them would be male, so your fraction would be 65/100.
However, you can simplify this fraction as both 65 and 100 have common factors. So you keep dividing both numbers by its factors until there are no more common factors left. This will leave you with 13/20.
Therefore your final answer is 13/20.
Answer:
54
Step-by-step explanation:
What I would do is multiply 12x4 first to get 48, then after I'd multiply 12x1/2 to get 6 then I'd add them together to get 54.
