Maddie biked 8 3/4 miles today, and Chase bikes 3 1/2 miles. How many times the length of Chase’s bike ride was Maddie’s bike ri

borishaifa [10]

Answer: 2.5 times

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The length of Chase’s bike ride= $8\dfrac{3}{4}\ miles$

The length of Maddie’s bike ride= $3\dfrac{1}{2}\ miles$

In improper fraction : Length of Chase’s bike ride= $\dfrac{4(8)+3}{4}\ miles$

$=\dfrac{35}{4}\ miles$

Similarly , Length of Maddie’s bike ride= $\dfrac{7}{2}\ miles$

The number of times the length of Chase’s bike ride was Maddie’s bike ride= $\dfrac{\text{ Length of Chase’s bike ride}}{\text{ Length of Maddie’s bike ride}}$

$=\dfrac{\dfrac{35}{4}}{\dfrac{7}{2}}\\\\=\dfrac{5}{2}=2.5$

Hence, the length of Chase’s bike ride was 2.5 times Maddie’s bike ride.

If E F = 7 , A C = 16 , and A F = 9

Vilka [71]

Answers:

CB = 14

GF = 8

FB = 9

EF is parallel to CB

====================================

Explanations:

Points E and F are midpoints of their respective sides. They form the midsegment EF. Because EF is a midsegment, A midsegment is half the length of its parallel counterpart, so CB is two times longer than EF. If EF is 7 units long, then CB = 2*EF = 2*7 = 14

For similar reasons, GF is parallel to AC. If AC = 16, then half of that is GF = (1/2)*AC = 0.5*16 = 8.

FB = FA = 9 as these segments have the same single tickmark to indicate they are the same length

EF is parallel to CB because EF is a midsegment, and this is one of the properties of being a midsegment. We can show that quadrilateral EGBF is a parallelogram to help prove this.

The basketball boosters are selling school t-shirts for 20 dollars and pants for 45 dollars. Last week they sold 100 items and c

lana66690 [7]

He sold 76 shirts and 24 pants.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Cost of one t-shirt = $20

Cost of one pants = $45

Total items sold = 100

Total sales = 2600

Let,

x be the number of t-shirts

y be the number of pants

According to given statement;

x+y=100 Eqn 1

20x+45y=2600 Eqn 2

Multiplying Eqn 1 by 20

$20(x+y=100)\\20x+20y=2000\ \ \ Eqn\ 3$

Subtracting Eqn 3 from Eqn 2

$(20x+45y)-(20x+20y)=2600-2000\\20x+45y-20x-20y=600\\25y=600$

Dividing both sides by 25

$\frac{25y}{25}=\frac{600}{25}\\y=24$

Putting in Eqn 1

$x+24=100\\x=100-24\\x=76$

He sold 76 shirts and 24 pants.

There are 534 car parking spaces but 478 spaces are occupied,round to the nearest 10

suter [353]

Answer:

60

Step-by-step explanation:

If 478 out of 534 parking spaces are taken, then you will be <u>subtracting</u>. When you subtract 534 and 478 (534-478), then you get 54. Remember 5 and up round to 10. 4 and below round to 0. So 56 rounds to 60 because 6 is greater than 5.

Hope it helps!
