Answer:

Jack ran 704 ft/min during the second half of the race.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here the distance traveled was 3 miles, and the total elapsed time was 20 minutes.  Recall that distance = rate * time, or rate = distance / time.

Find the pace (speed, rate) for the second part of the race.

Here, the total distance was 3 miles and the elapsed time 20 minutes.  Jack's average speed was thus 3/20 miles/minute.  Converting this to feet per minute, we get:

3 mi          5280 ft

------------ * ------------- = 792 ft/min    (Jack's average speed)

20 min        1 mi

Recall that the formula for finding the average of x and y is (x + y) / 2.

(1/2)(880 ft/min  +  p) = 792 ft/min; find p, which represents Jack's pace for the second part of the race.

If (1/2)(880 ft/min  +  p) = 792 ft/min, and we mult. both sides by 2, we get:

880 ft/min + p = 1584 ft/min.

To solve this for p, subtract 880 ft/min from both sides, obtaining:

p = 704 ft/min

Jack ran 704 ft/min during the second half of the race.

Help? 2+2-8+6-2+9+5-6+6-3+8-1+7-0+8-1+10-2+11+
SOVA2 [1]

Answer:

51

Step-by-step explanation:

2+2 = 4

4 - 8 = -4

-4 + 6 = 2

2 - 2 = 0

0 + 9 = 9

9 + 5 = 14

14 - 6 = 8

8 + 6 = 14

14 - 3 = 11

11 + 8 = 19

19 - 1 = 18

18 + 7 = 25

25 - 0 = 25

25 + 8 = 33

33 - 1 = 32

32 + 10 = 42

42 - 2 = 40

40 + 11 = 51

Which set of equations is enough information to prove that lines a and b are parallel lines cut by transversal f? m∠4 = 110° and
atroni [7]

see the attached figure to better understand the problem

we know that

If a and b are parallel lines

then

m∠1=m∠4 --------> by alternate exterior angles

m∠3+m∠4=180\° --------> by supplementary angles

so

m∠3+m∠1=180\°

therefore

<u>the answer is the option</u>

m∠1 = 110° and m∠3 = 70°
