17 Matt's laps - f laps = Ian's laps
The answer in decimal format is 15.7
Or 7 radical 5
Answer:
check your math
Step-by-step explanation:
The first subtraction was correct:
36 -7 3/4 = 28 1/4
The second subtraction needs to be revisited.
28 1/4 -6 2/4 = 27 5/4 -6 2/4 = 21 3/4
__
You can do what you did, but you need to pay attention to the signs.
28 1/4 -6 2/4 = (28 -6) +(1/4 -2/4) = 22 - 1/4 = 21 3/4
The result of subtracting 2/4 from 1/4 is -1/4, not +1/4.
_____
The length of the first cut piece was 21 3/4 inches.
Since both have a ratio of 8 feet to one second, we draw the conclusion that the situation may be described using a proportionate relationship.
<h3>Is the relationship shown proportionally?</h3>
Keep in mind that the formula for a proportionate connection between two variables is:
y = k*x
where k is the proportionality constant.
If we get the same proportionality constant for the two supplied pairs of variables, then the presented scenario is proportional. Let's define x as the time and y as the distance.
After the first pair has traveled 24 feet in 3 seconds:
24 feet = k*3s
K = 8 ft/s for (24 ft/3s)
After the second pair moves 40 feet in 5 seconds:
40ft = k*5s
K = 40ft/5s 8ft/s
Then, because both have a ratio of 8 feet to one second, we draw the conclusion that the situation may be described using a proportionate relationship.
