If Chang jogs one lap around the inside track, how far does he jog

Mathematics

erica [24]3 years ago

Answer:

836 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the tracks are similar, therefore, the ratio of the lenght of all corresponding sides of the inside track to the outside track are equal, and have the same scale factor.

Only 1 side of the inside track is given as 395 m. It corresponds to the side of the outside that measures 553 m. Therefore:

scale factor = 395:553 = \frac{395}{553} = 0.7

Find the remaining two sides of the insider tracks by multiplying the lenght of the side of the outside tracks that corresponds to each by the scale factor.

Thus:

280*0.7 = 196 m

350*0.7 = 245 m

The remaining 2 side lengths of the inside tracks are 196 m and 245 m.

If Chang completes 1 lap around the inside tracks, he would have gone: 395 + 196 + 245 = 836 m.

What is the equation of the line that passes through the points (−2, 1) and (1, 10)?
Viktor [21]

Answer:

3x - y = -7

Step-by-step explanation:

y = mx + b

m = deltay/deltax

m = (10 - 1)/[( 1 - (-2)]

m = 9/3 = 3

y = 3x + b

From (-2 | 1) we see that when x = -2, y = 1

Placing into the equation, in order to find b (y-intercept)

y = 3x + b

1 = 3(-2) + b

b = 7

y = 3x + 7 or 3x - y = -7

S_A_V [24]
Firsly remove the $350
$625-$350=$275
Each person is $6,so divide that from $275
275/6=45R5
The remaining $5 cannot be used to pay for another person,so we leave it as extras.
Therfore,45 people were at the the party.
