Answer:
Exact form: 5/2
Decimal form: 2.5
Mixed number form: 2 and 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
when you divide a fraction you keep, change, flip
Equation: 5/8 ÷ 1/4
keep 5/8 the same
change the divide symbol into a multipulcation symbol
flip 1/4 the other way, so it's 4/1 (it's a whole number now)
then just multiply across
Equation now: 5/8 × 4/1
What are you solving for???

The first thing we must do for this case is to define variables.
n = number of 5k races covered
f = end time.
We have the following equation:
f = -1.2n + 38.1
We note that the slope of the line is:
m = -1.2 minutes per race
Therefore, the time decreases 1.2 minutes when the number of races increases n.
Answer:
The model predicts that for each additional race to runner has run, the finishing time decreases by about 1.2 minutes
