To prepare for a bicycling event, you warm up each day at a moderate pace then you ride hard for a number of miles. one day you
vovangra [49]

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>

masya89 [10]
Make the x axis seconds and y axis floors. Your first point would be at (0,-2), then (1,3), then (2,8) and so on.

You could scale the axes just going by one

1. What values of a, b, and c would you use in the quadratic formula for the following equation?
Archy [21]
Question (1):
The general formula of the quadratic equation is:
ax² + bx + c = 0
The given equation is:
5x² + 9x = 4
Rearrange the given equation to look the standard one:
5x² + 9x - 4 = 0
Now, compare the coefficients in the given equation with the standard one, you will find that:
a = 5, b = 9 and c = -4

Question (2):
The given expression is:
 -5 + 2x²<span> = -6x 
</span>Rearrange this expression to be in standard form:
2x² + 6x - 5 = 0
This means that:
a = 2
b = 6
c = -5
The roots of the equation can be found using the formula in the attached image.
Substituting in this formula with the given a, b and c, we would find that the correct choice is third one (I have attached the correct choice)

Question (3):
Quadratic formula (the one used in the previous question, also shown in attached images) is the best method to get the solution of any quadratic equation. This is because, putting the equation in standard form, we can simply get the values of a, b and c, substitute in the formula and get the precise solutions of the equation.

Hope this helps :)
