Remark
You cannot give an answer to this unless you are give the fastest speed of a swimmer. That stat is not an easy one to decide upon. At what distance for example or do you eliminate distance? Since this is a college level question, I don't think it unreasonable that you have to research raw distance over fastest time.
The fastest speed I can find is 100 meters in 46.91 seconds. That means that the actual speed of the swimmer is 100 meters / 46.91 = 2.132 meters / second.
Givens
Set up a proportion with the numbers found and given
Speed of ball / speed of swimmer = 21.12 / 1
Speed of ball = x
Solution
Speed of swimmer = 2.132 m/s
x / 2.132 = 21.12 / 1 Multiply Both sides by 2.132
x = 21.12 * 2.132 / 1
x = 45.02 m/s
Answer
45.02 m/s
so the coat went down from 50 to 35, namely 15.
if we take 50 to be the 100%, what is 15 off of it in percentage?
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
3/4 x 9/4 = 1.6875 or 27/16
Answer:
its y=-5x
Step-by-step explanation:
Why?
linear functions have only the slope, they dont include the y-intercept
X = # of posters, y = total cost
y = 2x + 250
y = 1000
1000 = 2x + 250
1000 - 250 = 2x
750 = 2x
750/2 = x
375 = x....so 375 posters can be printed
==========================
y = total cost, x = # of miles
y = 3x + 3
y = 117
117 = 3x + 3
117 - 3 = 3x
114 = 3x
114/3 = x
38 = x.....so the car was towed 38 miles
