A cheetah ran 300 feet in 2.92 secods. What was the cheetahs average speed in miles per hou? Show your work.

1 answer:

6 0

Start by converting 300 feet to miles and 2.92 seconds to hours.

300 feet 1 mile
----------- x -------------- = ?
1 5280 feet

2.92 sec 1 hr
----------------- * ---------------- = ?
1 3600 sec

Reduce each of the above fractions. Then convert 300 feet
-------------- to the
2.92 sec

equivalent speed / rate in mph using the converstion factors you derived earlier.

As per the isosceles triangle theorem, if the two base angles are congruent then the legs are also congruent, so we must set the two legs equal to each other:

2z - 15 = 9

Add 15 to both sides:

15 - 15 = 0
15 + 9 = 24

Divide 2 from each side:

2z = 24

2z/2 = z

24/2 = 12

z = 12

Hence, the answer would be D: z = 12

Answer:

One rose bush = $3

One bunch of ornamental grass = $4

Step-by-step explanation:

We can set up a system of equations to solve for this. Let cost of 1 rose bush be r and cost of 1 ornamental grass be g. Thus we can form 2 equations:

$14r+7g=70\\5r+14g=71$
