Let the speed for the first 12 mi be x mi/h, the speed for 18 mi was (x+4) mi/h
thus given that
time=distance/speed 
the average time will be:
3=(12+18)/(x+x+4)
3=30/(2x+4)
solving for x we get
3(2x+4)=30
6x+6=30
6x=24
x=4 mi/hr
Answer: 12 mi/hr

Lin runs 5 laps around a track in 6 minutes.
Paladinen [302]

Answer:

25.2

Step-by-step explanation:

6/5 is 1.2, so it takes 1.2 minutes to run one lap.

This means 21 x 1.2 = the minutes it takes to run 21 laps around the track.

Therefore it takes 25.2 minutes to run around the track 21 times.

A circle with radius of 5 cm sits inside a 11 cm * 11 cm rectangle.
Nadusha1986 [10]

Answer:

42.43  cm^{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

A circle with a radius of 5 cm sits inside a 11 cm x 11 cm rectangle.

Question asked:

What is the area of the shaded region as shown in the figure ?

Solution:

First of all calculate area of circle and then area of rectangle:-

Area\ of\  cirle=\pi r^{2}

                      =\frac{22}{7} \times5\times5\\ \\ =\frac{550}{7}\\  \\=78.571\   cm^{2}\\

<u>As here length an width both are 11 cm, we can say that this is a square.</u>

<u />Area\ of\ square=(Side)^{2}

                         =11\times11=121\ cm^{2}

Now, area of shaded region = Area of square - Area of circle

                                               = 121 - 78.571 = 42.429 cm^{2}

Therefore, the area of the shaded region will be 42.43  cm^{2}

In the diagram the radius of the outer circle is 2x cm and the radius of the inner circle is 6 cm. The area of the shaded region
stich3 [128]

let's find the area of the outer circle and the inside circle

the inside's circle area

A= π x 6²=36π

the outer's

A' = π x 4x²= 4πx²

A'-A=4πx²- 36π=160πcm² equivalent to x²- 9=40, so x²=49 implies x =sqrt(49)=7, x=7.

Naddika [18.5K]
Check the picture below.

running a perpendicular line like so from the right-angle, makes three similar triangles, the large, containing the smaller ones, and a medium and a small one.  Now, using proportions, you can just  use there, the medium and smalle to get "x".
