The correct answer is 8. See the steps below:

1. We will use x for the unknown number.

2. X^2+24=5x according to the given info.

3. Move everything to one side.

X^2-5x-24=0
(X-8)(x+3)=0

X is 8 or -3.

However, the problem said positive number. So we can ignore the -3, the correct answer is 8.

lorasvet [3.4K]

Answer:

Thus, Amit ran 3.33 KM

calculation needed:

conversion of time (40 minutes to hour)

multiplying velocity  and time (which we got in hours)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

to calculate the distance: . v times t

that is multiply v with t

where v is average velocity

t is the  time

__________________________________

Given

v = 5 km/hour

time = 40 minutes

since speed is in Km per hour and also we have to find distance in km

lets convert time which in 40 minutes to hour

we know

60 minutes = 1 hour

1 minute = 1/60 hour

40 minutes = 40/60 hour = 2/3 hour

distance = v times t

distance = 5*2/3 = 10/3 = 3 1/3 km = 3.33 km

Thus, Amit ran 3.33 KM

calculation needed:

conversion of time (40 minutes to hour)

multiplying velocity  and time (which we got in hours)
