<span>We cannot deduce about the exact location of P between J and K. But we can conclude: segment JP + segment PK = line JK.
</span><span>JP + PK = JK.
</span><span>Substitute first each.
(8z - 17) + (5z + 37) = 17z - 4
Combine like terms.
13z + 20 = 17z - 4
Isolate the variable z.
4z = 24
z = 6
The value of the variable z is then 6 units.</span>

<span>From the problem statement, we can say that the sum of segment JP and segment PK is equal to the line JK.

</span><span>JP + PK = JK.

</span><span>First, we substitute the equations to each term.
(8z - 17) + (5z + 37) = 17z - 4 

Combining like terms.
13z + 20 = 17z - 4

Solving for z,
4z = 24 
z = 6

In 1906 Kennelly developed a simple formula for predicting an upper limit on the fastest time that humans could ever run distanc
umka21 [38]

Answer / Step-by-step explanation:

(1) Given t = 0.0588s ¹.¹²⁵

where s is the distance and t is the time to run that distance.

The second portion asks us to find the derivative of the equation when our s value is equal to 20 and interpret.

(2) First, we try to convert the unit from miles to meters

Therefore, 1 mile = 1609 meters

Then,

         t = 0.0588 ( 1609 ) ¹.¹²⁵

             =238 . 09

This gives us the instantaneous rate of change of seconds between every 20 meters ran.

The last portion asks us to compare this estimate to current world records. And have they been surpassed?

As of today, the fastest official record for a standard mile is held by a man from Morocco named Hichan El Guerrouj. The time was recorded at 3.43 minutes in Rome, Italy on July 7th, 1999.

Now, keep in mind that this is almost a full minute slower than the estimated time. However, how do these projections hold up against Usain Bolt, the man that is considered the fastest man in the world ?

Although, Usain Bolt does run long distances, he holds records in nearly every sprinting event that he has ever competed in.

Hence, Kennelly's estimate for the fastest mile is 238.09

(3) Now, noting that since dt / ds = 0.0588 ( 1.25 ) s  ⁰.¹²⁵

Then,

           dt / ds I 100 = 0.0588 (1.25) (20)  ⁰.¹²⁵

                              = 0.1176

Answer:

5. beth can buy 49 avocados. 592 divided by 3 = 197 divided by 4 = 49

6. the painting will be 23 inches tall. 27 - 9 = 18 so 5 + 18 = 23

7. the photo will be 18 inches tall. 13 - 1 = 12 so 6 + 12 = 18

8. i think it's $273.08 . 37 divided by 10 = 3.7 x 74 = 273.8
