Answer:
The number of meters Robert will beat Sam is 12 meters.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
When Paul crossed the finish line of a 60-meter race, he was ahead of Robert by 10 meters and ahead of Sam by 20 meters. Suppose Robert and Sam continue to race to the finish line without changing their rates of speed.
Find:
the number of meters by which Robert will beat Sam
Step 1 of 1
When Paul finishes, Robert has run 60-10=50 meters and Sam has run 60-20=40 meters.
Therefore, when Robert and Sam run for the same amount of time, Sam covers
of the distance that Robert covers. So, while Robert runs the final 10 meters of the race, Sam runs
meters.
This means Robert's lead over Sam increases by 2 more meters, and he beats Sam by 10+2=12 meters.
Answer:
20%/100 = 8 peeps / 40 items in the basket
(40 total items)
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the total number of items in the basket. The ratio of peeps to the total item is 1/5. Therefore,
1/5 = 8/x
x = 40
40 total items
Answer:
NOT a relation and NOT a function
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The prime cost = 4 times the value of material used
Former Prime cost = 540
Value of material = 540 / 4 = Rs. 135
Since ;
Prime cost = raw material + wages
540 = 135 + wages
Wages = 540 - 135
Wages = 405
Increase in raw material ; 3 : 4
New cost of raw materials = (4/3) * 135 = 180
Decrease in wage ; 4 : 5
New wage = 4/5 * 405 = 324
New prime cost :
180 + 324
= 504
