Answer:

The total distance covered is 15.6 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

One day you warm up for 15 minutes at a pace of 0.1 miles per 25 seconds.

The rule of three or is a way of solving problems of proportionality between three known values and an unknown value, establishing a relationship of proportionality between all of them. If the relationship between the magnitudes is direct, like in this case, the direct rule of three can be applied as follow:

a ⇒ b

c ⇒ x

Then x=\frac{c*b}{a}

First, the simple rule of three can be applied in the following way: if 1 minute equals 60 seconds, 15 minutes equals how many seconds?

seconds=\frac{15 minutes*60 seconds}{1 minute}

seconds= 900

So now you can apply the following rule of three: if in 25 seconds you travel 0.1 miles, in 900 seconds how many miles do you travel?

distance=\frac{900 seconds*0.1 miles }{25 seconds}

distance= 3.6 miles

If you then ride hard for 12 miles, the total distance traveled will be the sum of both:

3.6 miles + 12 miles = 15.6 miles

<u><em>The total distance covered is 15.6 miles.</em></u>

$ PS = \frac{4}{3} x

Solution:

Given PRQ is a triangle.

ST is a line parallel to RQ.

$PT = x, \ PQ = 3x,  \ SR=\frac{8}{3}x

TQ=PQ-PT

TQ=3x -x=2x

<u>Triangle proportionality theorem,</u>

<em>If a line parallel to one side of a triangle intersects the other two sides, then it divides the two sides proportionally.</em>

$\frac{PS}{SR} =\frac{PT}{TQ}

$\frac{PS}{\frac{8}{3} x} =\frac{x}{2x}

Do cross multiplication, we get

$ PS \times 2x=x \times \frac{8}{3} x

Divide by 2x on both sides, we get

$ PS = \frac{4}{3} x
