<span>Let x=0.8888... 

x=0.8888 Start with the given equation 

10x=8.8888 Multiply both sides by 10. The goal is to move the decimal point to the next repeating portion (which is just one spot to the right) 



 Now subtract the equation x=0.8888 from 10x=8.8888 to get 
10x-x=8.8888-0.8888 

9x=8 Combine like terms. Notice how the decimal portions cancel out. 

x=8/9 Divide both sides by 9 to isolate x 

So the answer is x=8/9 which means that 8/9=0.8888 (where the 8's repeat)</span>

I do not understand this at all, can someone please help me with the steps in each question
Mandarinka [93]

Answer:

285 min

275 min

chi

tie

Step-by-step explanation:

swim - 1.5 km

bicycle ride - 40 km

run - 10 km

1) Alexandra

swim time = distance / velocity = 1.5 / 5 = 0.3 hr = 18 min

transition 1 time = 4 min

cycling time = distance / velocity = 40 / 15 = 2.6666667 hr = 160 min

transition 2 time = 3 min

run time = distance / velocity = 10 / 6 = 1.6666667 hr = 100 min

so total time to complete the triathlon is

= 18 + 4 +160 + 3 +100

= 285 min = 4.75 hrs

2) Chi

swim time = distance / velocity = 1.5 / 6 = 0.25 hr = 15 min

transition 1 time = 5 min

cycling time = distance / velocity = 40 / 15 = 2.6666667 hr = 160 min

transition 2 time = 5 min

run time = distance / velocity = 10 / 7.5 = 1.3333333 hr = 80 min

got flat tire that took 10 min to fix

so total time to complete the triathlon is

= 15 + 5 + 160 + 5 + 80 + 10

= 275 min

3) Alexandra won the race by 10 min

4)even though chi got flat tire , chi still won the race by 10 min,

if it took 20min to fix flat tire both their times would be 285 min and it would have been a tie.
