To find the answer, we can first find the distance each of them have, then divide it by their speed to find the time needed.

Distance Steve need to travel: 300 feet
Distance Paula need to travel:
300+175(behind steve) = 475 feet

Time needed respectively:

Steve: 300 ÷ 9 = 33.33.. seconds
Paula: 475 ÷ 15 = 31.66... seconds

As we can see from the result, Paula would take less time to reach the goal (31.66<33.33),
therefore, Paula win the bike race by:

33.33-31.67
=1.66...
≈1.67 feet

Thus Paula won by 1.67 feet.

Hope it helps!

a fox a coyote and a wolf weigh a total of 120 pounds the ratio of the weight of fox to the weight of coyote is 3:8 the weight o
ira [324]
There is not enough information to calculate this. 

<span>Knowing the weight ratio of the fox to coyote as 3:8 in no way allows you to know the respective ratio of the wolf. To know the weight of the wolf would require knowing its ratio value, then the weights of all 3 is an easy calculation. </span>
<span>Example - 3:8:15 (f:c:w) is a plausible ratio based upon real-world weight averages for certain species/subspecies of the three. </span>
<span>- knowing the values of the 3 terms as 3:8:15 gives a total of 3+8+15 = 26 ratio values </span>
<span>- you then simply divide the total weight by this ratio value total; 120/26 = 4.62 </span>
<span>- so each ratio value is 4.62 units of weight*** </span>
<span>- now, simply calculate the weight of each canid by multiplying its ratio value by the unit of weight... </span>
<span>fox; 3 x 4.62 = 13.86 </span>
<span>coyote; 8 x 4.62 = 36.96 </span>
<span>wolf; 15 x 4.62 = 69.3 </span>
<span>Validate the ratios by adding the weights together (we should get 120) 13.86 + 36.96 + 69.3 = 120.12 </span>
<span>The total is slightly out because that 4.62 figure was a rounding up. </span>

<span>Now, the thing is, there is nothing given that allows us to know exactly what ratio value the wolf should be, I chose 15 myself because that is a real-world plausible value when compared to 3:8 for the other 2. Changing it to 16, say, means that there are now 27 ratio values total giving a ratio value of 120/27 = 4.44 obviously changing the weights of all 3.</span>

Plz help me well mark brainliest if you are correct!!
LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

4 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance like magnitude is simply a positive value

----------------------------

Since the y coordinate is the same

the distance is just the difference in the x coordinates

from -5 to -1 is a distance of 4

Mnenie [13.5K]

Answer:

  • 10. 0.99
  • 11. -60
  • 12. 5.5

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Use the slope formula:</u>

  • m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

10.

  • m = (6.24 - 3.27)/(5 - 2) = 2.97/3 = 0.99

11.

  • m = (240 - 360)/(3 - 1) = -120/2 = -60

12.

  • m = (8.84 - 6.09)/(7 - 2) = 2.75/5 = 5.5

Question 1 of 12, Step 1 of 1
stellarik [79]

Answer:

325 and 375 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

Distance between plane A and B = 2800

Recall :

Distance = speed * time

Let speed of A = v1

Speed of B = v2

v1 = v2 + 50

Time taken = 4 hours

Distance = speed * time

Total distance = 2800

2800 = v1 * 4 + v2 * 4

2800 = (4v1) + (4v2)

2800 = 4(v2+50) + 4v2

2800 = 4v2 + 200 + 4v2

2800 = 8v2 + 200

2800 - 200 = 8v2

2600 = 8v2

v2 = 2600/8

v2 = 325 mph

v1 = v2 + 50

v1 = 325 + 50

v1 = 375 mph
