Answer:

C. 37.5 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Olivia completes 12 laps in 15 minutes.

Find the unit rate. It is nothing time taken to complete 1 lap.

= 15/12

= 1.25 minutes

Step 2: Now find the time taken to complete 30 laps.

Multiply 30 by 1.25

= 30 *1.25

= 37.5 minutes.

Thank you. :)

Answer:

C. 37.5 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

You can set up a proportion to help you figure this out.

12/15=30/x (in this proportion, the number of laps are both on the numerator and the time it takes her is on the denomiator.)

Now, just cross multiply and your equations should be: 12·x=15·30, which equals to 12x=450.

Divide 12 on both sides and x=37.5

Help !! Pleaseeeeeeeee

marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

arc BE is the same as the interior angle, or 76°

BE = 76 °

we can also find arc CE the same way, b/c we can see that the interior angle is the suppment with 76 or 180-76 = CE or 104°

Now we know all the arcs but arc CD

so use the idea that all the way around the circle is 360°

360 = 76 + 104 + 140 + CD

360 - 76 - 104 - 140 = CD

40 = CD

CD = 40 °

1. We know that 1 feet = 12 inches

let x be a number of inches, which when added to 18 inches will give 7 feet

18 inches + x inches = 7 feet

18 inches + x inches = 84 inches [1 feet = 12 inches]

x inches = 84 inches - 18 inches

x inches = 66 inches

2. We know that 1 mile = 1760 yards

let x be the number of yards, when added to 2000 yards will be equal to 2 miles

2000 yards + x yards = 2 miles

2000 yards + x yards = 3520 yards

x yards = 1520 yards

3. We know that 1 feet = 12 inches

Number of feet = Given number of inches / 12

Number of feet = 108 / 12

Number of feet = 9 ft.

4. We know that 1 mile = 5280 feet

let x be the number of feet, when added to 8800 feet. will be equal to 8 miles

8800 feet + x feet = 8 miles

8800 feet + x feet = 42240 feet [1 mile = 5280 feet]

x feet = 42240 - 8800

x feet = 33440 ft.

5. We know that 12 inches = 1 feet

let x be the number of inches, when added to 37 inches, will be equal to 5 feet

37 inches + x inches = 5 feet

37 inches + x inches = 60 inches [12 inches = 1 feet]

x inches = 23 inches

6. We know that 1 yard = 3 feet

So, (number of yards)*3 = (number of feet)

Number of yards = number of feet / 3

Number of yards = 73 / 3 = 24.33 yards

7. We know that 1 yard = 3 feet

let x be the number of feet added to 15 feet to make 9 yards

15 feet + x feet = 9 yards

15 feet + x feet = 27 feet [1 yard = 3 feet]

x feet = 12 ft

8. We know that 1 mile = 1760 yards

let x be the number of yards remaining to reach 4 miles

3000 yards + x yards = 4 miles

3000 yards + x yards = 7040

x yards = 4040 yards

9. We know that 1 yard = 3 feet

So, number of yards * 3 = number of feet

replacing the values:

number of yards*3 = 114

number of yards = 114/3

number of yards = 38 yards

10. We know that 1 mile = 5280 feet

let x be the number of feet that must be added to 9000 feet to make 3 miles

x feet + 9000 feet = 3 miles

x feet + 9000 feet = 15840 feet

x ft = 6840 ft

11. We know that 12 inches = 1 feet

let x be the number of inches that must be added to 46 inches to get a length of 9 feet

46 inches + x inches = 9 feet

46 inches + x inches = 108 inches

x inches = 108 - 46 inches

x inches = 62 inches

12. We know that 1 mile = 1760 yards

let x be the number of yards that must be added to 3500 yards to make 2 miles

3500 yards + x yards = 2 miles

3500 yards + x yards = 3520 yards

x = 20 yards

13. We know that 1 ft = 12 inches

So, number of feet * 12 = number of inches

number of feet = number of inches / 12

number of feet in 252 inches

Number of feet = 252/12

Number of feet = 21 ft

14. We know that 1 mile = 5280 feet

let x be the number of feet, when added to 6500 feet, will be equal to 2 miles

x ft + 6500 ft = 2 miles

x ft + 6500 ft = 10560 ft

x ft = 4060 ft

15. We know that 1 mile = 5280 feet

let x be the number of feet, when added to 4500 feet, will be equal to 1 mile

x ft + 4500 ft = 1 mile

x ft + 4500 ft = 5280 ft

x ft = 780 ft

Okay? Whats the point? If You're trying to find out how long it would take then you would have to make $500 so 45 more hours until you can get it.
