<u>Answer</u>
Incorrect
<u>Explanation</u>
Unpack the problem:
Let the distance round the track to be X.
Speed is the ratio of distance to time.
Robert run a distance of (1/2)x
Elaine run a distance of (3/4)x
Make a plan:
Finding the speed of each.
Compare their speeds to determine who ran faster than who.
Solution:
Robert's speed =(1/2)x/(5/6)
=1/2×6/5x
= (3/5)x
= 0.6x
Elaine's speed = (3/4)x/(9/10)
= (3/4)×(10/9)x
= (5/6)x
= 0.83333x
<em>Elaine ran faster than Robert. </em>
<u>Look back and explain:</u>
0.83333x > 0.6x
Elaine's speed is higher than Robert's speed.
This shows that Elaine ran faster than Robert.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
-10*9*x^3*x*y^2 = -90x^4y^2
Answer:
X= 1/2 Y= 5
Step-by-step explanation:
8x+7y=39-------------(1)--------×2
4x-14y= -68-----------(2)-------×1
16X + 14Y = 78--------(3)
4X- 14Y = -68----------(4)
Addy equation (4) and (3)
20X = 10
dividing bothsides by 20
20X/20= 10/20
X = 1/2
substitute the value of X into equation (1)
8X+7Y = 39
8(1/2)+7Y= 39
4+7Y = 39
7Y = 39-4
7Y = 35
dividing bothsides 7
7Y= 35/7
Y = 5
