Kong took 85 seconds to complete his multiplication timed test. Consider the proportion:

Nolan took x seconds - 100%

Kong took 85 seconds - 100%-15%=85%

That is mathematically

$\dfrac{x}{85}=\dfrac{100}{85},\\ \\x=\dfrac{100\cdot 85}{85}=100\ seconds.$

Answer: Nolan took 100 seconds to complete the test.

The radius of a cylindrical box is (2x+3) inches. Height of the gift box is 3 times the radius. What is the surface area of cyli

GarryVolchara [31]

The surface area of cylinder in standard form is:

$A = 100.48x^2+301.44x + 226.08$

Solution:

Given that,

Radius of cylinder = 2x + 3 inches

Height of cylinder = 3 times radius = 3(2x + 3)

Height of cylinder = 6x + 9 inches

The surface area of cylinder is given by formula:

$A=2 \pi rh+2 \pi r^2\\\\A = 2 \pi r(h+r)$

Where, "r" is the radius and "h" is the height of cylinder

Substituting the given values we get,

$A = (2 \times 3.14 \times (2x+3))(6x + 9 + 2x + 3)\\\\A = (6.28 \times (2x+3))(8x + 12)\\\\A = (12.56x + 18.84)(8x+12)\\\\On\ simplifying\ we\ get\\\\\ A = 100.48x^2 +150.72x+150.72x + 226.08\\\\A = 100.48x^2 + 301.44x+226.08$

Thus the surface area of cylinder in standard form is found

A group of friends wanted to compare their average running speeds. They recorded the distance and amount of time each person ran

Sauron [17]

Answer with explanation:

Since there is no information provided on what options to determine the proportional relationship, so I will be demonstrating using examples and telling the method to compare the average running speeds.

Consider a group of 3 friends named Charles, Beck and Anna.

As they wanted to compare their average running speeds, they recorded the distance and amount of time each person ran one saturday morning.

To calculate Average Speed, we use:

Average Speed = $\frac{Distance}{Time}$

Example:

Charles Ran:

5 km in 30 minutes

Beck Ran :

2 km in 25 minutes

Anna Ran:

4 km in 20 minutes

Average speed of Charles = $\frac{5(1000)}{30(60)}= 2.78 m/s$

Average speed of Beck = $\frac{2(1000)}{25(60)}= 1.33m/s$

Average speed of Anna = $\frac{4(1000)}{20(60)}= 3.33m/s$

Here, we can see from comparison that Average running speed of Anna is the most.

Speed of Beck is proportional to both Charles and Anna.

Charles' Speed =2 (Beck's Speed)

Anna's Speed =2.5 (Beck's Speed)
