Answer:
The practice field is 144 feet long.
Step-by-step explanation:
360 x 2/5 = 144
(You would multiply these numbers NOT divide!)
To check my math:
2/5 = 0.4
144/360 = 0.4
By doing the above check, I know the two equations are the same. By seeing this I can know that the answer is correct.
Technically, this counts
82,83,84,85,86,87,88,89,90,91,92,93,94,95,96,97,98,99,100,101,102,103,104,105, 106,107,108,109,110,111,112,113,114,115,116,117,118,119,120,121,122,123,124, 125,126,127,128,129,130,131,132,133,134,135,136,137,138,139,140,141,142, 143,144,145,146,147,148,149,150,151,152
Answer:
see the explanation
The graph in the attached figure
Step-by-step explanation:
we have

This is a linear equation (the graph is a line)
The y-intercept is the point (0,4) ---> value of y when the value of x is equal to zero)
The x-intercept is the point (-4/3,0) ---> value of x when the value of y is equal to zero)
The slope is m=3
If the slope is changed to m=1/3
we have

This is a linear equation too (the graph is a line)
The y-intercept is the point (0,4) ---> is the same
The x-intercept is the point (-12,0) ---> the x-intercept is different
The slope is m=1/3
The second line becomes a lot less steep
Remember that the slope is the ratio between the rise and the run
In the first line the ratio rise/run is 4/1
In the second line the ratio rise/run is 1/3
see the attached figure to better understand the problem
If original program is x hours long we have the equation-
x - 0.17x = 1.5
0.83x = 1.5
x = 1.5 / 0.83 = 1.81 hours long ( about 1 hour 49 minutes) Answer
