Please help and good night

Answer:

(7) n = ⁴/₃

(8) x = -5

(9) d = ³/₂

(10) v = -20

Step-by-step explanation:

(7) $n-\frac{8}{9} = \frac{4}{9}$

$n-\frac{8}{9} = \frac{4}{9} \\\\Collect \ similar \ terms \ together\\\\n = \frac{4}{9} + \frac{8}{9} \\\\n = \frac{4+8}{9} \\\\n = \frac{12}{9} \\\\n = \frac{4}{3}$

(8)

$\frac{3}{2} + \ x = -\frac{7}{2}\\\\collect \ similar \ terms \ together\\\\x = -\frac{7}{2} -\frac{3}{2} \\\\x = \frac{-7-3}{2} \\\\x = \frac{-10}{2} \\\\x = -5$

(9)

$\frac{6}{5} = \frac{d}{(\frac{5}{4} )} \\\\cross \ and \ multiply\\\\5d = 6(\frac{5}{4} )\\\\5d = \frac{30}{4} \\\\d = \frac{30}{4\times 5} \\\\d = \frac{30}{20} \\\\d = \frac{3}{2} \\\\d = 1\frac{1}{2}$

(10)

$-\frac{1}{8} v = \frac{5}{2} \\\\\frac{-v}{8} = \frac{5}{2} \\\\cross \ and \ multiply\\\\-2v = 40\\\\-v = \frac{40}{2} \\\\-v = 20\\\\v = -20$

Alonzo takes 12 minutes to run 6 times around a 400-meter track. Assuming he runs at a constant speed, how long does he take to

snow_lady [41]

Answer:

5 minutes to run 1 kilometer

Step-by-step explanation:

Alonzo takes 12 minutes to run 6 times around a 400-meter track.

6 times around a 400 m track

400 * 6 = 2400 meters

It take 12 minutes to run 2400 meters

2400 meters = 2400/1000 = 2.4km

distance = 2.4 km and time = 12 minutes

Now we find our constant speed

$Distance = speed * time$

2.4 = speed * 12

divide by 12 on both sides

speed = 0.2

so speed is 0.2 km per minute

Now we find out time when distance = 1km

Distance = speed * time

1 = 0.2 * t

divide by 0.2 on both sides

5 = t

So it take 5 minutes to run 1 kilometer
