Answer:

Runner 1 has the fastest pace

Step-by-step explanation:

The first one we need to find the slope

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1) = (40-0)/(4-0) =40/4 = 10 minutes per mile

The second  is 8.5 minutes per mile

The third we need to find the slope

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1) = (90-72)/(10-8) =18/2 = 9 minutes per mile

Answer:

The 1st runner has the fastest pace

Step-by-step explanation:

For the first runner, m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

= (40 - 0) / (4 - 0)

= 40/4

= 10

The second runner's pace is 8.5

For the third runner, m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

= (90 - 72) / (10 - 8)

= 18/2

= 9

So the first runner has the fastest pace with 10 minutes per mile

Hope this helps, and please mark me brainliest if it does!

Ralph is painting the barn below, including the sides and roof.  He wants to know how much paint to purchase. 
grandymaker [24]
PART A

The barn is constructed by the following 2D shapes

Two triangles of height = 4' and base = 20'
Area = 2 × (0.5×4×20) = 80

Two rectangles of length = 20' and width = 15'
Area = 2 × 20 × 15 = 600

Two rectangles of length = 45' and width = 15'
Area = 2 × 45' × 15' = 1350

One base of length = 45' and width = 15'
Area = 45 × 15 = 675

Two rectangles on each on one side of the roof. We have the length = 45'  but not the width. We can work out the width by using Pythagoras theorem

w² = 4² + 10²
w² = 16 + 100
w² = 116
w = √116 = 10.77

Area of the two rectangles on the roof part is = 2 ×10.77 × 45 = 969.33

Total area to paint = 969.33+675+1350+600+80 = 3674.33 ≈ 3700 (to the nearest hundreth)


PART B

Numbers of paint cans needed = 3700 ÷ 57 = 64.9 ≈ 65 cans

PART C

Total cost of paint = 65 × 23.50 = $1527.50

PART D

The barn is constructed by a cuboid and a rectangular prism

V of cuboid = length × width × height
V of cuboid = 20 × 45 × 15
V of cuboid = 13500

V of triangular prism = Area of cross section × depth
V = [0.5×4×20] × 45
V = 1800

Total volume = 1800 + 13500 = 15300

in the figures below the cube shaped box is 6 inches wide and the rectangular box is 10 inches long 4 inches wide and 4 inches h
IRINA_888 [86]
<span>The cube’s sides measures 6 inches and the measurement for the rectangular box is that it is 10 inches long, 4 inches thick and 4 inches high. To compute for the volume of a cube you must use the formula of V = a3 and for the rectangular prism is V = l x w x h.</span>
<span>Cube:    V = 6^3
</span>              <span>V = 216 inches^3</span>
<span>Rectangular Prism:       V = 10 x 4 x 4</span> <span>             
                                       V = 160 inches^3</span>
To identify how much greater the volume the cube from the rectangular box we subtract their volumes.
N = C – R where N stands for the unknown C for the volume of cube and R for the volume of Rectangular Box <span>
N = 216 inches^3 – 160 inches^3
</span> <span>N = 56 inches^3</span> <span>
So the cube is 56 inches3 greater than the rectangular box.</span>
