The problem ask to calculate the corresponding distance on the new patio where as the the patio will have two long parallel side and an area of 360 square feet and the area of the similar patio is 250 square feet and its long parallel sides are 12.5 feet apart. To calculate this the ratio of the distance of the two polygon is P:Q so it means that the are is also P^2:Q^2 so the ratio of the area is 36:25 so the the distance of the new patio is 18 feet
Answer: The answer for f= 3.1
Answer:
2x-5= -20
move -5 to the other side
sign changes from -5 to 5
2x-5+5= -20+5
2x= -15
divide by 2 for both sides
2x/2= -15/2
cross out 2 and 2, divide by 2 and 2 and then becomes x
x= -15/2
To find the answer, we can first find the distance each of them have, then divide it by their speed to find the time needed.
Distance Steve need to travel: 300 feet
Distance Paula need to travel:
300+175(behind steve) = 475 feet
Time needed respectively:
Steve: 300 ÷ 9 = 33.33.. seconds
Paula: 475 ÷ 15 = 31.66... seconds
As we can see from the result, Paula would take less time to reach the goal (31.66<33.33),
therefore, Paula win the bike race by:
33.33-31.67
=1.66...
≈1.67 feet
Thus Paula won by 1.67 feet.
