To solve this problem we can make a proportion.
6 5
-- = ---
10 x
to solve this proportion we can cross multiply and divide.
5 times 10 is 50. divided by 6 is 8.3
it will take her 8.3 minutes to run 5 laps
Answer:
I would say the first one
Step-by-step explanation:
A graph is shown. The title of the graph is Cake Decorating. The horizontal axis label is Frosting in cups. The horizontal axis values are 0, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60. The vertical axis label is Food Color in drops. The vertical axis values are 0, 20, 40, 60, 80, 100, 120.
Consider the attached tree.
You start from the root, and with each level you create a sub-branch for each of the choices you have.
So, the root has two children, white and multigrain bread.
Each of those children has three children, because you have three meat choices
Each of those children has two children, because you have two cheese choices.
Then, you identify all the sandwiches by choosing a leaf, and read the label that lead you there.
For example, leaf number 4 represents a sandwich with white bread, turkey and provolone.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the sides be a, b and c.
<h3>Given</h3>
The length of one side of a triangle is 2 feet less than three times the length of its second side
The length of the third side is 3/4 of the sum of the lengths of the first two sides:
The perimeter of the triangle is 17.5 feet:
<h3>Solution</h3>
Substitute a with b in the second equation:
- c = (3/4)(3b - 2 + b) = (3/4)(4b - 2) = (3/4)(4b) - (3/4)(2) = 3b - 1.5
Now substitute a and c with b in the third equation and solve for b:
- 3b - 2 + b + 3b - 1.5 = 17.5
- 7b - 3.5 = 17.5
- 7b = 17.5 + 3.5
- 7b = 21
- b = 3
Find the value of a:
- a = 3b - 2 = 3*3 - 2 = 9 - 2 = 7
Find the value of c:
- c = 3b - 1.5 = 3*3 - 1.5 = 9 - 1.5 = 7.5
The sides of the triangle are:
- a = 7 feet, b = 3 feet, c = 7.5 feet
