Answer:

30 km/h

Step-by-step explanation:

usual speed= x km/h

increased speed= x +10 km/h

distance= 360 km

time difference= 3 h

360/x= 360/(x+10) +3
360/x= (360+ 3x+30)/(x+10)
360(x+10)= x(390+3x)
360x+3600= 390x+ 3x²
3x² + 30 x -3600=0
x²+10x-1200=0
x=30 km/h

An athlete runs around a circular track. The track has a diameter of 200 feet. How many laps does she need to take to run a mile

Shtirlitz [24]

First you have to figure out the length of the track:

$2 * \pi * r$

r is the half of the diameter:
200ft : 2 = 100ft

$2* \pi *100ft$ = 200 $\pi$ ≈ 628,31

The athlete has to run ca. 5280ft for one mile:

5280 : 628,31≈8,4

The athlete has to run 8,4 laps
