Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
126 mi/h = (126 mi)/(1 h)·(5280 ft)/(1 mi)·(1 h)/(3600 s) = (126·5280/3600) ft/s
126 mi/h = 184.8 ft/s = 924/5 ft/s

In 2 seconds, the parachutist falls ...
(184.8 ft/s)·(2 s) = 369.6 ft
Answer:
20 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
1st piece = x
2nd piece = 2x
3rd piece = 6x
x+2x+6x=180
9x=180
x=20
so the first piece is 20 feet, the second is 40, and the third is 120.
To solve for this, set up a proportion.
21/40 = x/100.
Cross multiply the fraction's numerators with the denominators;
21 x 100, 40 and x.
2100/40x.
Divide both numbers by 40 to get x.
2100/40 = 52.5
21 is 52.5% of 40.
