Answer:6km

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

when Alice finishes the race Becky is 8km From finishing line

and caitlin 12 km from finishing line.

Suppose t is the time require by Alice to finish the race

andV_a,V_b,V_c be the velocity of alice ,becky and caitlin

thus t=\frac{24}{V_a}=\frac{24-8}{V_b}=\frac{24-12}{V_c}

thus \frac{V_b}{V_c}=\frac{4}{3}

say t' is time required by beckey  to complete 8 km thus

V_b\times t'=8

therefore for Caitlin

V_c\times t'=\frac{8}{V_b}\times V_c=6

Thus caitlin will cover a distance of 6 km in t' time and 6 km away from finishing.

Answer:

1. a) Square

2. c) Rectangle

Step-by-step explanation:

1. If you cut this rectangular prism in way to be PERPENDICULAR to the base, that means you're cutting it straight down, from the top to the bottom, in a vertical line.  The cross-section obtained will be just like an end of the prism, which in this case is a square.  Because it's a regular rectangular prism, no matter where you cut it, as long as it's vertical, perpendicular to the base, you'll get a square due to this particular form.  Technically, the answer could also be a rectangle, since a square is a rectangle.

2.  you cut this rectangular prism in way to be PARALLEL to the base, that means you're cutting it straight, from the front to the back, in an horizontal line. The cross-section obtained will be just like an top of the prism, which in this case is a rectangle.  Because it's a regular rectangular prism, no matter where you cut it, as long as it's an horizontal line, parallel to the base, you'll get a rectangle due to this particular form.

Tanner used two ribbons of equal length to wrap packages One ribbon is 4/8 yard. Which of the following is NOT a possible lengyf
Artyom0805 [142]
The first thing we must do in this case is to rewrite the length of the first tape.
 We have then:
 4/8 = 2/4 = 1/2 = 3/6 yard
 Therefore, since the tapes have the same length, the following measure is NOT possible:
 4/6 yard
 Answer:
 
A. 4/6 yard
