Answer:
Alan: 200 m/min
Brian: 150 m/min
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : Two cyclists, Alan and Brian, are racing around oval track of length 450m on the same direction simultaneously from the same point. Alan races around the track in 45 seconds before Brian does and overtakes him every 9 minutes.
To find : What are their rates, in meters per minute?
Solution :
Let n represent the number of laps that Alan completes in 9 minutes.
Then n-1 is the number of laps Brian completes.
45 seconds = 3/4 minutes.
The difference in their lap times in minutes per lap is

Solving the equation we get,








Neglecting n=-3
So, n=4
Then Alan's speed in m/min is



Brian completes 3 laps in that 9-minute time, so his rate is


Therefore, Alan: 200 m/min
Brian: 150 m/min
The answer is c .........
Answer:
c = 20 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
The largest square will be 14 sqrt(2) ft long
To figure out the side length of the square
use the pythagorean theorem
a^2 + b^2 =c^2
we are limited by the shortest side of the rectangle
28 ft
each side of the triangle is 1/2 the length of the short side of the rectangle or 14 ft
a^2 + b^2 =c^2
14^2 + 14^2 = c^2 where c is the side of the square
196 + 196 = c^2
392 = c^2
take the square root of each side
sqrt(392) = sqrt(c^2)
c = 14sqrt(2)
c = 19.799ft
to the nearest whole number
c = 20 ft
