Step-by-step explanation:
1 km = 1000 m
(hence the term "kilo" which means 1000).
so. he runs 1000 m at the rate of 3 minutes per km, that means 3 minutes per 1000 m.
now, we can see the solution already with our eyes.
but let's do it formally :
the rate or ratio between time and distance must be the same for the same speed.
so,
3 min / 1000 m = x min / 500 m
500 m × 3 min / 1000 m = x min
1/2 × 3 min = x min
3/2 = 1.5 min = x min
so, it takes him 1.5 minutes (90 seconds) to run 500 m.

Answer:
7/6 or 1 1/6
Step-by-step explanation:
when you add or subtract fractions, you have to have a common denominator. in this case, your common denominator is 6
1/2=3/6
2/3=4/6
add the numerators and keep the denominator 6
4+3=7
7/6 or 1 1/6
Answer: A.) 10x + 15
Step-by-step explanation:
You would distribute (multiply) the 5 to the 2x which would then make it 10x and you would distribute (multiply) the 5 to the 3 which would then make it 15. Because the 5 is a positive number the sign stays the same.
Therefore, 10x + 15 is your answer.
Hey there! :)
Answer:
First part: 2 miles.
Second part: 45 minutes
Third part: 8 mph.
Step-by-step explanation:
We can divide this question into 3 parts.
Begin by solving for the distance traveled after 15 minutes by creating a ratio:
Cross multiply:
20 · 15 = 150 · x
300 = 150x
300/150 = 150x/150
x = 2 miles.
2nd part: How long it took her to ride 6 miles.
Set up another ratio similar to the one used before:
Cross multiply:
20 · x = 6 · 150
20x = 900
20x/20 = 900/20
x = 45 minutes.
3rd part:
For this part, we will need to convert from minutes to hours.
Therefore, her speed is 8 mph.
