Using proportions, it is found that the speed of the runners are of 16 mph and of 20 mph.
<h3>What is a proportion?</h3>
A proportion is a fraction of a total amount.
After 30 minutes, the runners are 2 miles apart, hence the second runner is 4 miles per hour faster than the second, that is:
.
The first runner's speed is 4/5 of the speed of the second runner, hence:





Hence, the speed of the runners are of 16 mph and of 20 mph.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
no. of sides n=5
sum of interior angles=(n-2)×180=(5-2)×180=3×180=540
72+2x+99+89+3x=540
5x+ 260=540
5x=540-260
5x=280
x=56°
The scale factor that takes triangle XYZ to X’Y’Z’ is 2.
