Answer:

0.121 centimeters per second.

Step-by-step explanation:    

We are told that in a recent snail race,the winning snail traveled 5.85 cm 3/4 of a minute.

To find the speed at which snail was traveling in centimeters per second, we will divide 5.85 by number of seconds in 3/4 of a minute.

First of all we will find how many seconds are equal to 3/4 of a minute.

\text{3/4 of a minute}=(\frac{3}{4} \times 60)\text{ seconds}

\text{3/4 of a minute}=3\times 15\text{ seconds}

\text{3/4 of a minute}=45\text{ seconds}

Now we will divide 5.85 by 45 to find the speed of snail in centimeters per second.

\text{Speed of snail in centimeters per second}=\frac{5.85\text{ Centimeters}}{45\text{ Second}}

\text{Speed of snail in centimeters per second}=0.1211111111111111\frac{\text{ Centimeters}}{\text{ Second}}

Therefore, the snail was traveling at a speed of 0.121 centimeters per second.

Answer:

The snail traveling is 0.13 centimeters per second.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : In a recent snail race,the winning snail traveled 5.85 cm 3/4 of a minute.

To find : How fast was the snail traveling in centimeters per second?

Solution :

The distance traveled is 5.85 cm.

The time taken is \frac{3}{4} minute.

Convert minute into second,

1 minute = 60 second

\frac{3}{4} minute = \frac{3}{4}\times 60 second

\frac{3}{4} minute = 45 second

The speed i.e. fast was the snail traveling in centimeters per second is given by,

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

\text{Speed}=\frac{5.85}{45}

\text{Speed}=0.13

Therefore, the snail traveling is 0.13 centimeters per second.

GHJK is a square with diagonals intersecting at L. Given that GH=2 and GL=square root of , complete the statement
Dafna11 [192]

Answer:

GL = square root of 2 = √2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: GHJK is a square and its diagonals intersect at L

GJ and HK are its two diagonals.

We know that in a square diagonals bisect each other and if length of side is a, then length of its diagonal = √2 a.

Therefore, GJ=HK = √2×2

Since, diagonal intersect at L , L is mid point of GJ and HK

Therefore, GL = √2×2/2 = √2

Hence, GL = square root of 2

Which expression is eqivalent to 6× + 10×
My name is Ann [436]

16x

Both of these expressions are similar expressions, therefore you can simply add the number in front of the 'x'

6 + 10 = 16

Therefore, 6x + 10x = 16x

Consider the toss of four coins. There are 16 (i.e., 24) possible outcomesin one toss. (a)Calculate the probabilities that there
lana [24]

Answer:

See answers below

Step-by-step explanation:

If 4 coins are tossed. the total possible outcomes are;

H H H H , H H H T, H H T H, H T H H, T H H H , H H T T, H T T H, T T H H, H T H T, T H T H, T H H T , H T T T, T H T T, T T H T, T T T H  and T T T T

Total outcomes = 16

1) zero head = T T T T = 1 outcome

Probability = Expected/Total outcome

Pr(zero head) = 1/16

2) one head = H T T T, T H T T, T T H T, T T T H   = 4 outcomes

Probability = Expected/Total outcome

Probability = 4/16

Pr(one head) = 1/4

3) two heads = H H T T, H T T H, T T H H, H T H T, T H T H, T H H T   = 6 outcomes

Probability = Expected/Total outcome

Pr(two head) = 6/16

Pr(two head) = 3/8

4)  three heads = H H H T, H H T H, H T H H, T H H H   = 4 outcomes

Probability = Expected/Total outcome

Pr(three heads) = 4/16

Pr(two head) = 1/4

5) four heads appearing on the four coins =  H H H H = 1 outcome

Pr(four heads) = 1/16
