The answer to the question is 2:3
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Speed = distance travelled/time
A horse ran 800 m in 40 seconds. This means that the speed is
800/40 = 20 m/s
The horse ran 1200 m in 60 seconds. This means that the speed is
1200/60 = 20 m/s
The horse ran 1200 m in 60 seconds. This means that the speed is
480/24 = 20 m/s
Since the horse's rate or speed is the same at each scenario, it means that the relationship between the distance covered by the horse and the time taken is proportional.
Let k represent the constant of proportionality. The constant of proportionality is 20. It represents speed of the horse.
Let d represent the distance in meters.
Let t represent the time in seconds.
Therefore
d = 20t
2.5y + 3x = 27
5x - 2.5y = 5
Align the variables to make solving this easier.
2.5y + 3x = 27
-2.5y + 5x = 5
You can see that the 2.5y and -2.5y cancel each other out. Then add the 3x and 5x, and 27 + 5.
3x = 27
5x = 5
8x = 32
Divide both sides by 8.
x = 4
Now input that x into one of the equations to get y.
2.5y + 3(4) = 27
2.5y + 12 = 27
2.5y = 15
y = 6
The answer to this system of equations is x = 4, y = 6. (4, 6)
A. write the question that represents the food supply then write the equation that represents the park attendance
I'm thinking maybe x is supposed to represent the number of tasks completed because it states Shelly earned 90 points on each task. Then when put together it may look like this, let's say there are 4 tasks= Ex.90 times the 4 tasks minus 20 points which would total the points Terrence's has earned. So i believe x is the total tasks. Hope I didn't make it confusing...
