We know that 10 printers print 10 pages of paper for 10 seconds.
In order to calculate how many seconds are needed for 50 printers to print out 50 pages  of paper -denoted with X, we should compare these situation with the situation we know (10 printers print 10 pages).
The number of printers is 5 times bigger and the number of pages is also 5 times bigger, which means we can write:
X=5*(seconds needed <span>10 printers to print 10 pages)
X=5*10seconds
X=50 seconds
</span><span>It takes 50 seconds for 50 printers to print out 50 pages of paper.</span>

Lets use the formula RWT=J to solve this, where,

  • R is the rate
  • W is the number of workers/things
  • T is time
  • J is number of jobs/things

<em><u>"If it takes 10 seconds for 10 printers to print out 10 pages of paper"</u></em> - here -

W is 10 printers, T is 10 seconds,  and J is 10 pages. We can write:

R(10)(10)=10\\R(100)=10\\R=\frac{10}{100}\\R=0.1


<u><em>"how many seconds will it take 50 printers to print out 50 pages of paper"</em></u><em> - here we use R=0.1 (previously found) to figure out T.</em>

<em>RWT=J\\(0.1)(50)T=50\\5T=50\\T=\frac{50}{5}\\T=10</em>

So it will take 10 seconds for 50 printers to print 50 pages.

Answer:

39.25

Step-by-step explanation:

the formula is a = (3.14 × r^{2}) / 2

the equation is a = (3.14 ×5^{2}) / 2

5 is the radius

1. 5^{2} = 25

2. 3.14 × 25 = 78.5

3. 78.5 / 2 = 39.25

I hope this helped! :)

In 15 minutes, Jada would have covered about 2.5 miles, while the cousin would have covered 0.625 miles.

<h3>What is speed?</h3>

Speed is the ratio of distance to time.

For Jada:

Speed = 2 miles / 12 minutes = 0.167 miles per minute

For Jada cousin:

Speed = 1 mile / 24 min = 0.0417 miles per minute.

Hence, in 15 minutes:

Jada distance = 15 min * 0.167 miles per minute = 2.5 miles

Jada cousin distance = 15 min * 0.167 miles per minute = 0.625 miles

In 15 minutes, Jada would have covered about 2.5 miles, while the cousin would have covered 0.625 miles.
