So weight=spool+thread
spool=260grams
thread=85m grams where m=meters left

so

260+85m=1540
minus 260 both sides
85m=1280
divide both sides by 85
m=15.058823529411764705882352941176
about 15 meters left

So covert 4 minutes to seconds. Which would be 4 times 60 which would mean there would be 240 seconds. So you would multiply 15 x 240 = 3,600 feet. Then multiply 22 x 240 = 5,280 feet. 5,280 - 3,600 = 1,680 feet.

ANSWER:
Skateboarder B will have traveled 1,680 more feet over 4 minutes.

Natali5045456 [20]

Answer: The winning ticket is 2(x-6)=-35 is equivalent to 2x=-23.



Step-by-step explanation:

Let's check all the options

4(x-5)=35 is not equivalent to 4x=40

\text{since }4(x-5)=35\\\Rightarrow4x-20=35\\\Rightarrow4x=35+20\\\Rightarrow4x=55

8(x-7)=35 is not equivalent to 8x=28


\text{since }8(x-7)=35\\\Rightarrow8x-56=35\\\Rightarrow8x=35+56\\\Rightarrow8x=91

2(x-6)=-35 is equivalent to 2x=-23


\text{since }2(x-6)=-35\\\Rightarrow2x-12=-35\\\Rightarrow2x=-35+12\\\Rightarrow2x=-23

9(x-6)=-35 is not equivalent to 9x=-29

\text{since }9(x-5)=-35\\\Rightarrow9x--40=-35\\\Rightarrow9x=-35+40\\\Rightarrow9x=5

Thus, the winning ticket is 2(x-6)=-35 is equivalent to 2x=-23.
