Abby ran 2 1/3 miles. Miguel ran 1 1/2 times as far as Abbey did. how many miles did Miguel run?

1 answer:

8 0

Miguel's 1 1/2 times can be written out as 1.5 because 1/2 is equal to 0.5,
To work out the distance you need to times Abby's miles by 1.5. Another way of doing this is by dividing Abby's miles by 2, working out the 0.5, and then adding her original miles, adding on the 1 to make 1.5.

2 1/3 / 2 = 1 1/6
1 1/6 + 2 1/3 = 3 3/6 = 3.5 miles

Hope this helps! :)

What are the roots of f(x) = x2 – 48? –48 and 48 –24 and 24 Negative 8 StartRoot 3 EndRoot and 8 StartRoot 3 EndRoot Negative 4

Answer:

$x=4\sqrt{3},\:x=-4\sqrt{3}$ are the roots.

Step-by-step explanation:

$x=4\sqrt{3},\:x=-4\sqrt{3}$

Considering the expression

$x^2\:-\:48$

Solving

$x^2-48=0$

$x^2-48+48=0+48$

$x^2=48$

$\mathrm{For\:}x^2=f\left(a\right)\mathrm{\:the\:solutions\:are\:}x=\sqrt{f\left(a\right)},\:\:-\sqrt{f\left(a\right)}$

$x=\sqrt{48},\:x=-\sqrt{48}$

Solving

$x=\sqrt{48}$

= $\sqrt{2^4\cdot \:3}$

$\mathrm{Apply\:radical\:rule}:\quad \sqrt[n]{ab}=\sqrt[n]{a}\sqrt[n]{b}$

= $\sqrt{3}\sqrt{2^4}$

$\mathrm{Apply\:radical\:rule}:\quad \sqrt[n]{a^m}=a^{\frac{m}{n}}$

$\sqrt{2^4}=2^{\frac{4}{2}}=2^2$

$=2^2\sqrt{3}$

$=4\sqrt{3}$

So,

$x=4\sqrt{3}$

Similarly,

$x=-\sqrt{48}=-4\sqrt{3}$

Therefore, $x=4\sqrt{3},\:x=-4\sqrt{3}$ are the roots.

In a parking garage the number of suv's is 40% greater than the number of automobiles. there are 98 suv's. how many automobiles

chubhunter [2.5K]

A=automobile S=SUV
0.4A+A=98 (to change a percent to a decimal you move the decimal point two places to the right)
1.4A=98 (I combined like terms)
A=70 (divided each side by 1.4)
