The 10,000-meter long-distance running event in the summer Olympics is approximately 6.2 miles. Which equation could be used to

determine the time, t, it takes to run 10,000 meters as a function of the average speed, s, of the runner where t is in minutes and s in miles per minute?

Answer:

\bold{t = f(s) = \dfrac{6.2}{s}}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that distance is 10,000 meter or 6.2 miles.

Time taken is t minutes.

Average speed is s miles/minutes

To find:

Equation to determine time 't' as a function of average speed 's' = ?

t is in minutes and

s is in miles/minute

Solution:

First of all, let us have a look at the formula for Average Speed:

\text{Average Speed} = \dfrac{\text{Total Distance Traveled}}{\text{Total Time Taken}}\\\Rightarrow \text{Total Time Taken} = \dfrac{\text{Total Distance Traveled}}{\text{Average Speed}}\\

Now, we are given that Time, t should be in minutes and

Average speed, s must be in miles per minute

That means, we must have distance in miles.

Putting all the values in above formula.

So, the formula or equation becomes:

t = \dfrac{6.2}{s}

Therefore the equation to find time, t in minutes as a function of Average Speed, s is given as:

\bold{t = f(s) = \dfrac{6.2}{s}}

Answer: x= -12

Step-by-step explanation:

These are corresponding angles which means they are the same. X+62= 50. Subtract 62 from both sides. X= -12

Convert these unlike fractions to equivalent like fractions and add them. You must use the LCD to get the answer correct. If pos
Gnoma [55]

The converted fractions are 3/12 and 5/12 and the sum is 2/3

<h3>How to convert the fractions?</h3>

From the question, the fractions are given as

1/4 and 5/12

The denominators of these fractions are

4 and 12

So. we start by calculating the LCD of the denominators

So, we have

4 = 2* 2

12 = 2 * 2 * 3

This gives

LCD = 2 * 2 * 3

Evaluate

LCD = 12

This means that the common denominator must be 12

So, we have

1/4 and 5/12

Multiply 1/4 by 3/3

This gives

3/12 and 5/12

When the fractions are added, we have

3/12 + 5/12 = (3 + 5)/12

Evaluate

3/12 + 5/12 = 8/12

Reduce fraction

3/12 + 5/12 = 2/3

Hence, the sum of the fractions is 2/3

<h3>Answer:</h3>

D. This is an experiment because it is applying a treatment

<h3>Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

Experiments and observational studies are both ways to find new information about a hypothesis but in different ways.

Vocabulary

First, to understand the question, let's define the key terms.

  • Experiment - An experiment is when a scientist purposely applies a treatment and interferes with a person's life in order to gather information.
  • Observational Study - This type of study attempts to study a person without interfering with their lives in any way.

These definitions eliminate the answer choices A and C because both of them match the incorrect definition of the term.

Experiment vs. Observational Study

Now, we need to figure out if this specific example is an experiment or an observational study. In this case, the nutritionist is giving a treatment of vitamins. This means that this cannot be an observational study because the scientist is interfering with people. It has to be an experiment because there is a specific treatment being applied.
