Answer:
6 laps
Step-by-step explanation:
Each lap Jeffrey needs to run is one tenth of a mile he wants to run threee fifths of a mile how many laps does he need to run
One tenth of a mile = 1/0
Three fifths of a mile = 3/5
From the question:
1/10 mile = 1 lap
3/5 mile = x
Cross Multiply
1/10 mile × x = 3/5 mile × 1 lap
x = 3/5 mile × 1 lap/ 1/10 mile
x = 3/5 ÷ 1/10
x = 3/5 × 10/1
x = 6 laps
Therefore, for there fifths of a mile(3/5) he needs to run 6 laps
Answer:
5 blocks
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the triangle is right use Pythagoras' identity to solve for AC
The square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the other 2 sides, that is
AC² = AB² + BC² ← substitute values
AC² = 3² + 4² = 9 + 16 = 25 ( take the square root of both sides )
AC =
= 5
5(3 - x) - 4(2 - 3x) > 2
15 - 5x - 8 + 12x > 2 <em>distributed 5 and 4 on the left side</em>
7 + 7x > 2 <em>added like terms (15 and -8) and (-5x and 12x)</em>
<u> -7 </u> <u>-7 </u>
7x > -5


The increase of 45 to 75 is a positive increase. The decrease from 75 to 45 is a negitive
