Answer: 5.5hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Total distance = 226miles

Total time = 7 hours

Let b represent total time spent while walking.

Distance (walking) = 4b

Distance ( riding) = 40(7-b)

Total distance 226 = 4b + 40(7-b)

226 = 4b + 280 - 40b

226 = 280-36b

b = 54/36

b = 1.5hours

Amount of time spent walking = 1.5hours

Amount of time spent riding = 7-1.5 = 5.5hours

Amount of time spent on bicycle = 5.5hours

Circumcerence = distance travelled in one full rotation = 2 x π x 8 = 16π

for 2 minutes and 15 seconds,
multiply 16π by 2.25 as 2 minutes is twice the distance of one rotation and 15 seconds is a quarter more

therefore answer is 36π = 113.1 inches

Daniel went to play soccer at a quarter to 6. His mom called him to come home for dinner at 20 minutes after 7. How many minutes
Minchanka [31]

Answer:

Daniel played soccer for 95 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

1) If he started at a quarter to 6 this means he started at 5:45 as a quarter is 15 minutes.

2) If he finished 20 minutes after 7 he ended at 7:20

3) Add 15 minutes to get to 6:00.

4) Since 60 minutes are in an hour, add 60 minutes to get 7:00. This brings our total up to 75 minutes.

5) Add the last 20 minutes to get the total amount of 95 minutes spent playing soccer.

HELP ME Which of these tables represents a function? <br> A. W <br> B. X<br> C. Y<br> D. Z
Lady_Fox [76]
A. W

The same x value CAN’T lead to the same y value. For example, in table X, there are 2 of the same x values (3) that lead to different y values (2 and 6). Different x values CAN lead to the same y value which is why table W works
