In 2009, a Jamaican sprinter named Usain Bolt set a world record when he ran 100 meters in 9.58 seconds (or 0.160 minutes). If a

car traveled at that average speed for 1 hour, how far would it travel?
The distance traveled in one hour is equal to the distance traveled in one minute times the number of minutes in an hour.

But I cannot figure out the answer!!! It's way to hard for me, and normally, I'm really ggood at this kind of thing. But today, I just can't seem to do it?!? I'm actually really annoyed about it!!!!

Answer:

37,500 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Given Usain bolt traveled 100m in 0.160 minutes

recall that

speed = distance travelled ÷ time taken

hence Usain Bolt's speed

= 100  m ÷ 0.160 min

= 625 meters per min

Now given that a car travels at the same speed for one hour.

recall 1 hour = 60 minutes.

Using the same formula as above

speed = distance traveled ÷ time taken

rearranging, we get

distance traveled = speed x time taken

we calculated the speed previously to be 625 m/min and we are given a time of 1 hour (i.e 60 min)

hence

distance traveled = speed x time taken

distance traveled = 625 m/min x 60 min = 37,500 m

Which function is the inverse of f(x)= 3x+5 over 7
Pani-rosa [81]

f(x) = (3x+5)/7

Step 1:

we write f(x) as y

y=(3x+5)/7

Step 2:

switch y by x and x by y

x=(3y+5)/7

Step 3:

solve for y,

x=(3y+5)/7

multiply both sides by 7

7x=3y+5

subtract 5 from left side

3y=7x-5

divide both sides by 3

y= (7x-5)/3

f⁻¹ (x) =(7x-5)/3

When a number is increased by 2.8%, the result is 56. What is the original number to
Sever21 [200]

Answer:

The original number was 54.5.

Step-by-step explanation:

If a number is increased by 2.8%, then it is 102.8% of it's original number.

In mathematics, "of" in virtually all cases means "multiplied by".

Therefore, we do the opposite:

1. Convert to a decimal.

102.8% = 1.028

2. Divide by the decimal.

56 \div 1.028 = 54.47

3. Round it to the nearest tenth.

54.47 rounds to 54.5.
