Answer:
5 minutes to run 1 kilometer
Step-by-step explanation:
Alonzo takes 12 minutes to run 6 times around a 400-meter track.
6 times around a 400 m track
400 * 6 = 2400 meters
It take 12 minutes to run 2400 meters
2400 meters = 2400/1000 = 2.4km
distance = 2.4 km and time = 12 minutes
Now we find our constant speed

2.4 = speed * 12
divide by 12 on both sides
speed = 0.2
so speed is 0.2 km per minute
Now we find out time when distance = 1km
Distance = speed * time
1 = 0.2 * t
divide by 0.2 on both sides
5 = t
So it take 5 minutes to run 1 kilometer
Answer:
32 lb
Step-by-step explanation:
Let a = number of pounds of type A coffee used.
Let b = number of pounds of type B coffee used.
From the statement:
"This month's blend used three times as many pounds of type B coffee as type A"
we get this equation:
b = 3a
"Type A coffee costs Karen $5.50 per pound, and type B coffee costs $4.25 per pound."
She spend (in dollars) 5.50a + 4.25b, but since b = 3a, we get
5.5a + 4.25(3a) = 5.5a + 12.75a.
She spent $584, so
5.5a + 12.75a = 584
18.25a = 584
a = 32
She used 32 lb of type A coffee.
Answer:
1246 yards
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the yard of fencing she needs for he cows, we simply need to find the perimeter of the rectangular area.
The area is 200 yards by 423 yards.
The perimeter is the sum of all the sides of a rectangle and it is given by:
P = 2(L + B)
P = 2(200 + 423) = 2(623)
P = 1246 yards.
She needs 1246 yards of fencing.
