Let the number = x

A.T.Q,

2x+16 = 2x/5

5(2x+16) = 2x

10x+80 = 2x

8x = -80

x= -10

angelo rode his bike around a bike trail that was 1/4 of a mile long.he rode his bike around thetrail 8 times.Angelo says he rod
forsale [732]
Hi there!

From this problem we can pull out some key information and remove any excess.

- The trail is 1/4 of a mile long.
- Angelo rode around the trail 8 times.
- Angelo claims he rode 8/4 miles.
- Teresa claims he rode 2 miles.

From that we know that if Angelo rode around the trail 8 times and the trail is 1/4 a mile, he in total rode 8/4 of a mile.

However, Teresa claims he rode 2 miles!

And the answer is... they're both correct!

Angelo did indeed ride 8/4 miles however that is equivalent to 2 miles so they are both in the right.

An olympic sprinter can run 56 yards in 8 seconds. At the same rate, how long (in seconds) would it take the sprinter to run 81
aniked [119]

Answer:

20,365.7 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to know how to convert yards to miles, as the question is in miles. We know that 1 mile is equivalent to 1760 yards. So we have:

1 mi = 1760 yards

If we multiply both sides by 81:

81 mi = 142,560‬ yards

And we know that the sprinter needs 8 second to run 56 yards:

8 s = 56 yards

If we divide both sides by 56 we get the time he needs for 1 yard:

8/56 s = 56/56 yards

1/7 s = 1 yard

So, takes him 1/7 seconds to run one yard. At this rate he runs 142,560 yards in:

(1/7) * 142,560 = 20,365.7

So, he needs 20,365.7 seconds to run 81 miles (142,560 yards)
