To answer the question above, let x be the shorter one of the pieces. With the variable, we can express the longer piece as 2x + 3. Based on the given, the sum of the lengths of these pieces should sum up to 14 ft.
2x + 3 + x = 14 ft, x = 3 2/3 ft
Substituting this value for the longer piece, we get 10 1/3 ft. Thus, the lengths of the pieces are 3 2/3 ft and 10 1/3 ft.
From what I can tell you are supposed to just pick Radom numbers and calculate what his earnings would be for the time worked
Answer:
58.8
Step-by-step explanation:
basic facts:
-15.4% is the same as 15.4/100
- the word 'of' in maths means times
so 15.4% of the 382ml is the same as
382*15.4/100
to do that, you multiply 382 by 15.4 = 5882.8
then you divide that by 100= 58.828
and then you just round that of to 58.8
Answer:
Frank
Step-by-step explanation:
First let's start by calculating the speed of each runner.
Let's use feet per second
Frank's speed is already given in feet per second: 14 feet/second
We are given that Jake runs 382 feet in 38 seconds. To bring this down to feet/second we need to divide both numbers by 38.
382/38=10.05 feet/second (about)
We are given that Will runs 1 mile in 394 seconds. 1 mile is equivalent to 5280 feet. Now we divide both numbers by 394 to bring it down to feet/second.
5280/394=13.401 feet/second (about)
We are given that Ron runs 555 feet in 1 minute. 1 minute is equivalent to 60 seconds. Now we divide both numbers by 60 to bring it down to feet/second.
555/60=9.25 feet/second
After comparing all the speeds, we can conclude that Frank runs the fastest
9.25%
3.70/40= 0.0925
0.0925x100= 9.25%
