Answer:

The answer to your question is speed = 9 m/s

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

Winner                                 Last runner

time = 45 s                           time = 48 s

speed = 9.6 m/s

Process

1) Calculate the distance they ran using the data of the winner

      speed = distance / time

-Solve for distance

      distance = speed x time

-Substitution

      distance = (9.6)(45)

-Result

      distance = 432 m

2.- Calculate the speed of the last runner

-Substitution

      speed = 432/48

-Result

     speed = 9 m/s

Which expression is equivalent to the following complex fraction? StartFraction 1 Over x EndFraction minus StartFraction 1 Over
Darina [25.2K]

Answer:

\frac{y-x}{x+y}

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that fraction

\frac{\frac{1}{x}-\frac{1}{y}}{\frac{1}{x}+\frac{1}{y}}

We have to find the expression which is equivalent to given  fraction .

\frac{1}{x}-\frac{1}{y}=\frac{y-x}{xy}

\frac{1}{x}+\frac{1}{y}=\frac{x+y}{xy}

Substitute the values  then, we get

\frac{\frac{y-x}{xy}}{\frac{y+x}{xy}}

We know that

\frac{\frac{a}{b}}{\frac{x}{y}}=\frac{a}{b}\times \frac{y}{x}

Using the property then, we get

\frac{y-x}{xy}\times \frac{xy}{x+y}

\frac{y-x}{x+y}

This is required expression which is equivalent to given expression.

Write an equation that you can use to solve for the height of the triangle (x). Notice that the perimeter is 48 feet.
MArishka [77]
A. 48 = 12 + 20 + x

If you use this equation then you can do 12 + 20 = 32 and then you can do 48 - 32 = 16 so x = 16

Answer:

The slope for this equation is \frac{1}{7}.

Step-by-step explanation:

                       x         y

point 1:           -4        -3

point 2:           3        -2  

slope:             \frac{1}{7}

To solve for slope here is an equation, to help: \frac{y^2-y^1}{x^2-x^1}

\frac{y^2-y^1}{x^2-x^1} \\\\\frac{-2-(-3)}{3-(-4)} \\\\= \frac{1}{7} \\
