Answer:

\frac{10.2\text{ miles}}{\text{ hour}}

Step-by-step explanation:

We are asked to find the speed of a biker, who biked 4 1/4 of a mile in 25 minutes.

To find average speed of the biker, we will divide total distance by total time taken.

4\frac{1}{4}\text{ miles}\div 25\text{ min}

Convert mixed fraction into improper fraction:

4\frac{1}{4}\Rightarrow \frac{4*4+1}{4}=\frac{16+1}{4}=\frac{17}{4}

\frac{17}{4}\text{ miles}\div \frac{25}{1}\text{ min}

Convert to multiplication problem by flipping the 2nd fraction:

\frac{17}{4}\text{ miles}\times \frac{1}{25\text{ min}}

\frac{17\text{ miles}}{100\text{ min}}

Convert minutes to hour:

\frac{17\text{ miles}}{100\text{ min}}\times \frac{\text{60 min}}{\text{1 hour}}

\frac{17\text{ miles}}{10}\times \frac{6}{\text{1 hour}}

\frac{102\text{ miles}}{\text{10 hour}}

\frac{51\text{ miles}}{\text{5 hour}}

\frac{10.2\text{ miles}}{\text{ hour}}

Therefore, the average speed of biker is 10.2 miles per hour.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

What is the average speed of a biker if she biked 4 1/4 of a mile in 25 minutes?

-----------------

rate = distance/time

-----

rate = (17/4)/(25/60) = (17/4)(60/25) = (17*3/5) = 51/5 = 10.2 mph

\begin{array}{llll}
\textit{perimeter of the dog pen}\\\\
P=2x+y\\\\
P=2x+\cfrac{2744}{x}\\

\textit{cost of it}\\\\
C=5\left( 2x+\cfrac{2744}{x} \right)\\\\
C=10x+\cfrac{27440}{x}
\end{array}

notice... the dog's pen perimeter, does not include the side that's bordering the garden's, since that side will use the heavy duty fence, instead of the light one

so, the sum of both of those costs, will be the C(x)

\bf C(x)=\left( 30x+\cfrac{82320}{x} \right)+\left( 10x+\cfrac{27440}{x} \right)
\\\\\\
C(x)=40x+\cfrac{109760}{x}

so, just take the derivative of it, and set it to 0 to find the extremas, and do a first-derivative test for any minimum

A shop sells chocolate, vanilla and strawberry ice creams. 45% of the ice creams sold are vanilla, and 1/4 are strawberry. What
Mamont248 [21]

Answer:

30%

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we want percentage, we need to convert 1/4th to percentage first.

We will divide, get decimal, and then multiply by 100 to get percentage.

1/4 = 0.25

0.25 * 100 = 25%

Now, we can say:

45% + 25% + chocolate = 100%

70% + chocolate = 100%

chocolate = 100 - 70 = 30

Chocolate = 30%
