Answer:

20 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up a proportion...

0.8 miles is to x miles as 6 mins is to 2.5 hours

*You need to convert 2.5 hours into minutes first, since the first part is in minutes. There are 60 minutes in an hour, so there are 60(2.5) = 150 minutes in 2.5 hours

0.8/x = 6/150

Now solve for x by cross multiplying...

0.8(150) = 6x

120 = 6x

20 = x

She can ride 20 miles in 2.5 hours

consider the equation is Y equals 1/square root of x and y=x-2. approximate solution of the system equations

emmasim [6.3K]

Answer:

$x=1$ and $x=4$

Step-by-step explanation:

We have the following system of equations:

$y=\sqrt{x}$ and $y=x-2$

To solve the problem, we need to equal the two equations:

$x-2=\sqrt{x}$ ⇒ $(x-2)^{2} =x$ ⇒ $x^{2} -4x + 4 = x$

⇒ $x^{2} -5x + 4 = 0$

So you need to find two numbers that added equal to 5 and multiplied equal to 4. These two numbers are $x=-1$ and $x=-4$ .

Then, the factorized form of the polynomial is: $(x-1)(x-4)$ .

The, the solution to the system of equations is: $x=1$ and $x=4$ .

3/4 picked apples. If 120 students picked apples, how many picked bananas

Oxana [17]

Answer:

40 students picked bananas

Step-by-step explanation:

3/4 picked apples

1 - 3/4 = 1/4 picked bananas

3/4x = 120

Multiply both sides of the equation by 4/3

4/3 * (3/4x) = 120/1 * (4/3)

x = 480/3

x = 160

Total of 160 students

/ \

120 = apples 160 - 120 = 40 = bananas

40 students picked bananas

Hope this helps :)
