Roberto, Christopher, and Levi are amateur cyclist riding in the 165.1 km long Tour of Cortez bicycle race. Each cyclist is indi

Naddik [55]

Answer:

Levi
Christopher
Roberto

Step-by-step explanation:

I like to work problems involving repetitive calculations using a spreadsheet. The sort function can easily put the results in the appropriate order.

Here, we need to compute minutes and kilometers remaining for each cyclist, and then divide the former by the latter to find the required timing.

Minutes remaining will be the difference between the qualifying time and the time used so far.

Km remaining will be the difference between the race length and the distance traveled so far.

Required minutes per km will be the ratio of minutes remaining to km remaining.

Levi has the least allowed minutes per km for his remaining distance. Roberto has the most.

_____

Christopher only has to increase his average speed by about 5% in order to qualify; Levi has the greatest challenge, as he needs about 18% more speed for the rest of the race.

you have 3.75 to spend at a vending machine. You want to buy at least three health bars. Regualr health bars cost 0.75 each and

DedPeter [7]

Answer:

Let x be the number of regular health bars you buy and y the number of strawberry health bars you buy. Then:

0.75x+1.25y=3.75

x+y>=3

Step-by-step explanation:

For the first equation, we have to assume that you will spend all of your money, otherwise it becomes an inequation. The money you spend on regular bars is 0.75x dollars and the money you spend on strawberry bars is 1.25y, so if you spend your 3.75 dollars on the bars, then 0.75x+1.25y=3.75.

For the second, you will always buy x+y health bars, regular and strawberry. There isn't enough information to make this into a equation, the only thing we can deduce is the inequation x+y>=3.

If we also assume that x and y are integers (we can't buy half-bars or one-fourth of a bar) then the minimum number of bars we can buy is 3 (3 strawberry bars) and the maximum is 5 bars (5 regular bars). x+y must be an integer too, so the possibilities for the second equation are x+y=3, x+y=4 and x+y=5. There is a finite number of solutions in any case.
