Joe runs one lap around a track in 80 seconds. Joe and Jim meet after 30 seconds.We know how long does it take for Joe to run one lap, so we can calculate what distance he runs in 30 seconds:
He runs half lap for 40 seconds. He runs quarter lap for 20 minutes and he runs 1/8 lap for ten minutes. So for 30 seconds he runs 3 * 1/8 lap=3/8 lap.
Because Jim runs in opposite direction this means that he will meat with Joe at 1-3/8=5/8 lap. So, Jim runs 5/8 lap for 30 seconds.
1/8 lap Jim runs for 30/5=6 seconds, so Jim needs 8*6=48 seconds to run the lap.
 After 30 seconds Joe has run e runs

You are building identical displays for the school fair using 65 blue boxes and 91 yellow boxes. What is the greatest number of
KiRa [710]

Answer:

The greatest number of displays that can be built using all the boxes are 13

(Using 5 blue boxes and 7 yellow boxes for each display).

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to answer the question, the first step is to divide the number of blue boxes and yellow boxes and look for a common ratio ⇒

\frac{65}{91}=\frac{5}{7}

This means that we have a ratio 5:7 for blue boxes and yellow boxes.

We find that each display will have 5 blue boxes and 7 yellow boxes.

To find the greatest number of displays that can be built we can do the following calculation

\frac{65}{5}=13

Or

\frac{91}{7}=13

(We can divide the number of blue boxes by its correspond ratio number or the number of yellow boxes by its correspond ratio number)

In each cases the result is 13 displays.

The answer is 13 identical displays

The sum of two numbers is 8, and their product is 80.
Anettt [7]

From their sum, the numbers are ' x ' and ' 8 - x ' .

From their product,  x(8 - x) = 80 .

When you massage and manipulate this equation into the standard
quadratic form, you have

         x² - 8x + 80 = 0  .

Applying the quadratic formula to tease out the solutions of this equation,
we find that they are

          <em> x = 4 + 64 i</em>
and
          <em> x = 4 - 64 i</em>

castortr0y [4]

Answer: £535

Step-by-step explanation:

Herr is the complete question:

Tim and three friends go on holiday together for a week.

The 4 friends will share the costs of the holiday equally,

Here are the costs of the holiday.

£1280 for 4 return plane tickets

£640 for the villa

£220 for hire of a car for the week

Work out how much Tim has to pay for his share of the costs.

Firstly, we have to calculate the total cost of the holiday. This will be:

= £1280 + £640 + £220

= £2140

We are also told that they will share the costs equally. Since there are 4 people, Tim will have to pay:

= £2140 ÷ 4

= £535

Tim will pay £535
