Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
a. Find the unit rate, or how many miles they traveled in one hour, by dividing:
b. Now that we know how fast they were going, we can use it in either a proportion or in the d = rt equation. For the proportion set up, put miles on the top and hours on the bottom and solve for the unknown:
and cross multiply to solve for x:
56x = 728 so
13 hours.
Now use the d = rt equation:
728 = 56t so
t = 13 hours
Answer:
6.04 km
Step-by-step explanation:
From the image attached, both triangles form are similar to each other because their corresponding angles are equal, therefore they are equiangular triangles. equiangular triangles have the same shape but different sizes and the ratio of their corresponding sides are equal.
Therefore since their corresponding sides are equal we can calculate the distance from the main gate to Manatee Springs. It is given by:
x = 2400 yards.
The distance from the main gate to Manatee Springs = x + 4200 yards = 2400 + 4200 = 6600 yards
The distance from the main gate to Manatee Springs = 6600 yards = (6600 * 0.0009144) km = 6.04 km
The distance from the main gate to Manatee Springs = 6.04 km
