There is a method of doing this called unit analysis. It automatically sets up the question in such away that you multiply all the numerators together and divide by all the denominators multiplied together. It is very handy to know.

Notice how the cancellation takes place as you progress from left to right. You are given seconds to start with and that cancels at the end, so that you are only left with meters.

\dfrac{10 s}{1} * \dfrac{108 km}{1 hour} * \dfrac{1000 m }{1 km}*\dfrac{1 hour}{3600 s}

\text{numerator = 10 * 108 * 1000 = 1080000}\\ \\ \text{denominator = 1 * 1 * 1 *3600}

The distance traveled in 10 seconds = 1080000 / 3600 = 300 meters.

Answer: 300 meters

You could also do this question by proportions, which you will no doubt get as your second answer.

The ratio of runners to swimmers was 3:2. When 28 runners dropped out of the competition, the ratio became 5:6. How many total s
xz_007 [3.2K]

The total of 42 swimmers are competing

Step-by-step explanation:

The given is:

  • The ratio of runners to swimmers was 3 : 2
  • When 28 runners dropped out of the competition, the ratio became 5 : 6

We need to find how many total swimmers are competing

∵ The ratio of runners to swimmers was 3 : 2

- Multiply each term of the ratio by x

∴ There are 3x runners and 2x swimmers

∵ 28 runners dropped out of the competition

∴ The number of runners who complete = 3x - 28

∵ The ratio became 5 : 6

- Equate the ratio between the new number of runners and the

   number of swimmers by 5 : 6

∵ The new number of runners = 3x - 28

∵ The number of swimmers = 2x

∴ \frac{3x-28}{2x}=\frac{5}{6}

- By using cross multiplication

∴ 6(3x - 28) = 5(2x)

- Simplify both sides

∴ 18x - 168 = 10x

- Add 168 to both sides

∴ 18x = 10x + 168

- Subtract 10x from both sides

∴ 8x = 168

- Divide both sides by 8

∴ x = 21

∵ The number of swimmers is 2x

∵ x = 21

∴ The number of swimmers = 2(21) = 42

The total of 42 swimmers are competing

Answer:

f(x) = x³+2x²-16x-32

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = 0 when x = -4, -2, 4

So these are the roots

Factors are (x+4)(x+2)(x-4)

f(x) = [(x+4)(x-4)](x+2)

f(x) = (x²-16)(x+2)

f(x) = x³+2x²-16x-32
