Answer:

D. 40

Step-by-step explanation:

First, calculate the total time she took in seconds.

Convert minutes to seconds using 60 seconds = 1 minute

2 min X 60 s = 120 s

Total time = 120 s + 42 s = 162 s

Calculate the total number of laps.

Convert metres to laps using 50 metres = 1 lap

Laps = 200 m ÷ 50 m = 4 laps

Divide the total time by the number of laps to calculate the unit rate, which is time per one lap.

Since it says to <u>estimate, round 162 seconds</u>.

162 s ≈ 160 s

160 s ÷ 4 laps ≈ 40s/lap

Her estimated time per lap is 40s.

A customer works into a post office to purchase stamps. she purchases a total of 45 stamps. some of the stamps are 49cent stamps
baherus [9]

Step-by-step explanation:Let number of 49 cents =A

                                             Let number of 33 cents=B

<u>A+B=45    equation 1</u>

1 $=100 cents

49 cents =.49 dollar

33 cents=.33 dollar

so .<u>49A+.33B=17.89    equation 2</u>

Add equation 1 and equation 2

since these are simultaneous equations

.49A+.33B=17.89

     A+     B=45

so divide equation 2 by 100 we get

49A+33B=1789

    A+B     =45 multiply equation 1 by 33 on both the sides we get

<u>33A+33B=1485     equation 3</u>

so subtract equation 3 from equation 2 we get

49A+33B=1789  equation 2

<u>33A+33B=1485    equation 3</u>

<u>16A+0      =304</u>

16A=304

A=304/16

A=19

putting nalue of A in equation 1 we get

A+B=45

19+B=45

B=45-19

B=26

so number of 49 cent stamps are 19

and number of 33 cent stamps are 26

5a - 9 + a = 9
Ne4ueva [31]

Answer:

a = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Simplify 5a - 9 + a to 6a - 9.

6a - 9 = 9

2) Add 9 to both sides.

6a = 9 + 9

3) Simplify 9 + 9 to 18.

6a = 18

4) Divide both sides by 6.

a =  \frac{18}{6}

5) Simplify 18/6 to 3.

a = 3

Therefor, the answer is, a = 3.
