Corey is out on the roads doing a long run, and also doing some mental calculations at the same time. corey's pace is 3 strides

per second, and each stride covers 5 feet. (a) how much time does it take corey to cover a mile? (b) if corey's stride increased to 5.5 feet per step, how much time would be needed to cover a mile? (c) at five feet per step, how many steps would corey need to run the marathon distance, which is 26 miles and 385 yards?

A. 352 seconds or 5 minutes 52 seconds.
B. 320 seconds or 5 minutes and 20 seconds  
C. 27687 steps
There are 5280 feet per mile. In A, 3 strides per second at 5 feet gives us 15 ft per second. 5280/15 = 352 seconds. In B, 3 strides per second at 5.5 feet gives us 16.5 feet per second. 5280/16.5 = 320 seconds. In C, we calculate the total feet to divide by 5 per step. multiply 26 miles by 5280 to get feet per mile and multiply 385 by 3 to get the feet per yard. Add them together. then divide by 5. 26(5280) + 385(3) =138435. 138435/5 = 27687 steps

What is the similarity ratio of ΔABC to ΔDEF?<br> Tri ABC: AC=4 CB=5<br> Tri DEF: DF= 2
alekssr [168]

The similarity ratio of ΔABC to ΔDEF = 2 : 1.

Solution:

The image attached below.

Given  ΔABC to ΔDEF are similar.

To find the ratio of similarity triangle ABC and triangle DEF.

In ΔABC: AC = 4 and CB = 5

In ΔDEF: DF = 2, EF = ?

Let us first find the length of EF.

We know that, If two triangles are similar, then the corresponding sides are proportional.

⇒ \frac{AC}{DF} =\frac{BC}{EF}

⇒ \frac{4}{2} =\frac{5}{EF}

⇒ 4EF=5\times2

⇒ EF=\frac{5\times 2}{4}

⇒ EF=\frac{5}{2}

Ratio of ΔABC to ΔDEF = \frac{AC}{DF} =\frac{4}{2}=\frac{2}{1}

Similarly, ratio of ΔABC to ΔDEF = \frac{BC}{EF} =\frac{5}{\frac{5}{2}}=\frac{2}{1}

Hence, the similarity ratio of ΔABC to ΔDEF = 2 : 1.

30 POINTS!!!! I NEED AN ANSWER!!PLEASE HELP!
Harman [31]

Answer:

Its the last one: a translation 2 units right and 4 units down.

Step-by-step explanation:

To get from point E (1,3) to E' (3-1) you add 2 units to the x coordinate since the x-axis goes from left to right  and moving to the right means its positive and then you subtract 4 from the y coordinate since the y axis is going up and down and when you move -4 points you move down 4 points. You do this to every other point get the new figure.
