Answer:

1 hour = 7/18 of the distance between two ports

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

In 3/7 hours distance traveled is 1/6

For finding distance in one hour, divide both sides by 7/3 so that 3/7 would be cancelled out:

3/7 * 7/3 hours = 1/6 * 7/3 distance

By simplifying:

1 hour = 7/18 of the distance between two ports

This means that in one hour 7/18 of the distance is covered between two ports.

i hope it will help you!

If you know what happened in 3/7 of a hour, you can multiply that value by 7/3 and find you what happens in a whole hour. If you prefer, you can visualize this using this proportion:

\dfrac{1}{6}\div \dfrac{3}{7}=x\div 1

Solving for x, we have

x=\dfrac{1}{6}\div\dfrac{3}{7}=\dfrac{1}{6}\cdot\dfrac{7}{3}=\dfrac{7}{18}

MARKING AS BRAINLIEST!! (Geometry)

Answer:

x = 15.49

Step-by-step explanation:

As you can see this is a right-angled triangle due to the right angle symbol, we can use Pythagorean theory to find the unknown length:

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

In this case, we know C and B but not A so:

a^2 = c^2 - b^2

Now plug the values in:

a^2 = 16^2 - 4^2

a^2 = 256 - 16

a^2 = 240

Square root the answer to get A:

a = \sqrt{240}

a = 15.49

x = 15.49

Hope this helps!

Solve for x 2(x-7)=0.2(x+2)+5.11
Kryger [21]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

You start off by rewriting the equation:

2(x-7)=0.2(x+2)+5.11\\

Then you have to factor:

2x-14=0.2x+0.4+5.11

Then you subtract the 0.2x:

1.8x-14=0.4+5.11

Add the positives on the right:

1.8x-14=5.51

Add 14:

1.8x=19.51

Divide:

x=10.84

You get x is approximately equal to 10.84

Ways to spot if an expression is not a polynomial:
1) If there is a negative exponent
2) If there is division by a variable
3) If the power is something other than a non-negative integer

If any of these conditions exist, the expression will not be a polynomial. Now consider the options. Option A has negative exponent, Option B involves division by a variable and Option D has a exponent which is not a number.

So, from the given options, option C is the only polynomial
