Express 5.03 as a fraction.

503 / 100

Convert the mixed number 5 3 100 into an improper fraction first by multiplying the denominator ( 100 ) by the whole number part ( 5 ) and add the numerator ( 3 ) to get the new numerator. Place the new numerator ( 503 ) over the old denominator ( 100 ) . 503 /100 .

Raul’s grandfather is Miguel, and Raul’s sister is Paula. Raul’s age is the same as his grandfather’s age minus 60 times the age

Lostsunrise [7]

Answer: The answer is x = 65 - 60y.

Step-by-step explanation: Given that Miguel is the grandfather of Raul and Paula is Raul's sister.

Now, let 'x' years be the age of Raul and 'y' years be the age of Raul's sister (Paula).

Also, given is the following information -

Raul's age = Grandfather's age - 60 × sister's age.

Since the age of Miguel, Raul's grandfather is 65 years, so we can write the following equation to find Paula's age

$x=65-60\times y\\\\\Rightarrow 60y=65-x\\\\\Rightarrow y=\dfrac{65-x}{60}.$

Thus, we can find Paula's age (y) using the equation

$y=\dfrac{65-x}{60},$

where 'x' is the age of Raul.

A. let the distance be d
so we have Δd/Δt=8.8min
Δd= 8.8Δt
d=∫8.8Δt-------(1)

b. d should be positive because the diver is ascending at a positive rate relative to depth

c. d=rt
t=d/r = 32.12/8.8 min
t= 3.65min
