Answer:

x = -8/3

Step-by-step explanation:

1/2x+3 = 2/3+1

Combine like terms

1/2x+3 = 2/3 + 3/3

1/2x + 3 = 5/3

Subtract 3 from each side

1/2x + 3-3 = 5/3 - 3

1/2x = 5/3 - 9/3

1/2x = -4/3

Multiply each side by 2

1/2x *2 = -4/3*2

x = -8/3

The results of a swim meet are shown. Who swam the fastest? Explain your reasoning.

Answer : The Susana swam the fastest.

Step-by-step explanation :

Speed : It is defined as the distance traveled per unit time.

Formula used :

$Speed=\frac{Distance}{Time}$

First we have to determine speed of the following persons.

For Tawni :

Distance = 50 m

Time = 40.8 s

$Speed=\frac{Distance}{Time}=\frac{50m}{40.8s}=1.225m/s$

The speed of Tawni is, 1.225 m/s

For Pepita :

Distance = 100 m

Time = 60.2 s

$Speed=\frac{Distance}{Time}=\frac{100m}{60.2s}=1.661m/s$

The speed of Pepita is, 1.661 m/s

For Susana :

Distance = 200 m

Time = 112.4 s

$Speed=\frac{Distance}{Time}=\frac{200m}{112.4s}=1.779m/s$

The speed of Susana is, 1.779 m/s

From this we conclude that, in this problem meter affects the response and the speed of Susana is more than the Pepita and Tawani.

Thus, Susana swam the fastest.

Solve for AC using the Pythagorean theorem

raketka [301]

Answer:

AC = 8.3

Step-by-step explanation:

A² + 11² = 13.8²

A² + 121 = 190.44

Subtract 121 from both sides

A² = 69.44

√A = √69.44

AC = 8.3
