Answer:

Steven is faster than Michelle by covering 0.64 meters more per second than that of Michelle.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Steven swam 200 m in 25.7 seconds while Michelle finished in 28 seconds.

So, speed of Steven is, $S_{Steven}=\frac{Distance}{time}=\frac{200}{25.7}=7.78\ m/s$

Speed of Michelle is, $S_{Michelle}=\frac{Distance}{time}=\frac{200}{28}=7.14\ m/s$

Now, to find how much faster did Steven swim than Michelle, we need to get the difference between their speeds.

Speed of Steven - Speed of Michelle

$7.78-7.14$

$=0.64\ m/s$

So, Steven is faster than Michelle by covering 0.64 meters more per second than that of Michelle.

H(t) = 0 for t = 7 and for t = -2.

It is reasonable for the time to be positive, 7 seconds.

(The offered answers all appear to be negative, so none are reasonable.)

Answer:

False

Step-by-step explanation:

It is false because the graph of $y=x^{2}$ does not passes through the point $(16,4)$ .

x = 16

y = 4

Substitute

$4=16^{2}$

$4=256$

Since 4 is not equal to 256, the answer is false.

11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

We want to list the steps involved in multiplying fractions;

Taking an example;

$\frac{2}{3}\times\frac{3}{4}$

First steps are;

- Multiply the numerators together

- Multiply the Denominators together

$\begin{gathered} =\frac{2\times3}{3\times4} \\ =\frac{6}{12} \end{gathered}$

Next is to;

Check to see if the product can be simplified;

$\frac{6}{12}=\frac{1}{2}$

So, we get the product to be;

$\frac{1}{2}$

Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:

The amount of his tax bill is <u>$2,500</u>.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Jason is 2017 federal income tax is $3,500.

He entitled to a $1,000 tax credit.

Now, to find the tax bill.

Amount of income tax = $3,500.

Tax credit = $1,000.

Thus, by subtracting the tax credit from income tax amount we get the amount of Jason tax bill:

$3500-1000$

$=2500.$

Therefore, the amount of his tax bill is $2,500.
