Answer:
It will take Noshwa 3 hours and 36 minutes to travel 72 miles.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since Noshwa is completing the bike portion of a triathlon, assuming that she travels 40 miles in 2.5 hours, to determine how long will it take her to travel 72 miles, the following calculation must be performed:
40 = 2.5
72 = X
72 x 2.5 / 50 = X
180/50 = X
3.6 = X
1 = 60
0.6 = X
0.6 x 60 = X
36 = X
Therefore, it will take Noshwa 3 hours and 36 minutes to travel 72 miles.
Answer:
5/32
Step-by-step explanation:
Since 5/8 x 1/4 = 5/32, that is the answer.
Key Note: When you get this type of question, multiply the second umber by the first.
It depends if it is
1. 3x+(1/14)=(2x)/8 or
2. (3x+1)/14=(2x)/8
if it is 1
1.
3x+(1/14)=2x/8
simplify 2x/8
2x/8=x/4
3x+(1/14)=x/4
find least common multiple of 14 and 4
factors of 14=2 and 7
factors of 4 are 2 and 2 so LCM=2 times 2 times 7=28
multiply both sides by 28
84x+2=7x
subtract 7x from both sides
77x+2=0
subtract 2 from both sides
77x=-2
divide both sides by 77
x=-2/77
2.
(3x+1)/14=2x/8
simpify 2x/8
2x/8=x/4
(3x+1)/14=x/4
find least common multiple of 14 and 4
factors of 14=2 and 7
factors of 4 are 2 and 2 so LCM=2 times 2 times 7=28
multiply both sides by 28
(2)(3x+1)=7x
distribute
6x+2=7x
subtract 6x from both sides
2=x
