Answer: Peters average speed in m/min is 294.1176 m/min

Step-by-step explanation:

Peter participated in a 5000m race and finished the race in 17 min.

Speed is calculated as Distance/Time

Peters average speed in m/min = Distance covered in m / Time taken in minutes

= 5000/17

= 294.1176 m/min

Therefore, Peters average speed in m/min = 294.1176 m/min

Hope it helps.

Thank you :)

Answer:

$294.12 m/min$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that Peter participated in a 5k race.

Time =17 min.

5 k race represent length=5000 m

We have to find the peters average speed in m/min.

We know that

Average speed= $\frac{Distance}{time}$

Using the formula

Average speed of Peter= $\frac{5000}{17}=294.12 m/min$

Hence, the average speed of Peter= $294.12 m/min$

scZoUnD [109]

Answer: Mason made $185.00

Step-by-step explanation:

For the first 10 suits he made $12.50 each suit, then he made $20 for the additional 3. (Just ignore the "suits part ._.)

250*.05=12.50

250*.08=20

12.50*10=125

3*20=60

125+60=185.

Given the line y = − 2 5 x + 3, determine if the given line is parallel, perpendicular, or neither. Select the correct answer fo

stiks02 [169]

Answer:

(a) Neither

(a) Perpemdicular

Step-by-step explanation:

Required

Determine the relationship between given lines

(a)

$y = -\frac{2}{5}x + 3$

and

$y = \frac{2}{5}x + 7$

An equation written in form: $y=mx + b$ has the slope:

$m \to slope$

So, in both equations:

$m_1 = -\frac{2}{5}$

$m_2 = \frac{2}{5}$

For both lines to be parallel

$m_1 = m_2$

This is false in this case, because:

$-\frac{2}{5} \ne \frac{2}{5}$

For both lines to be perpendicular

$m_1 * m_2 = -1$

This is false in this case, because:

$-\frac{2}{5} * \frac{2}{5} \ne -1$

(b)

$5y + 2x = -10$

and

$-5x + 2y = 4$

Write equations in form: $y=mx + b$

$5y + 2x = -10$

$5y = -2x +10$

Divide by 5

$y = -\frac{2}{5}x +2$

$-5x + 2y = 4$

$2y = 5x + 4$

Divide by 2

$y = \frac{5}{2}x + 2$

In both equations:

$m_1 = -\frac{2}{5}$

$m_2 = \frac{5}{2}$

For both lines to be parallel

$m_1 = m_2$

This is false in this case, because:

$-\frac{2}{5} \ne \frac{5}{2}$

For both lines to be perpendicular

$m_1 * m_2 = -1$

This is true in this case, because:

$-\frac{2}{5} * \frac{5}{2} = -1$

Cancel out 2 and 5

$-1 = -1$

3/4 is added to x, the result is 9/8. What is the value of x?

KIM [24]

Answer:

x=3/8

Step-by-step explanation:

turn 3/4 into a fraction that has a denominator of 8 3/4x2= 6/8

To get it to 9/8 you add x which is 3/8

so 3/8+6/8 is 9/8

x=3/8
