Answer:

option A

Step-by-step explanation:

since the given triangle is an isosceles triangle it's two remaining sides are equal

let the length of missing side be x

using pythagoras theorem

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

x^2 + x^2 = 22^2

2x^2 = 484

x^2 = 484/2

x = $\sqrt{242}$

x = $11\sqrt{2}$

A long distance runner does a first lap around a track in exactly 50 seconds.As she tires.Each subsequent lap takes 20% longer t

madreJ [45]

Answer:

182 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Time taken for first lap is 50 seconds and each subsequent lap takes 20% longer than previous

Solution:

Time taken for first lap = 50 sec

For second lap

Each subsequent lap takes 20% longer than previous

Previous lap time = 50 sec

second lap = 50 + 20% of 50

second lap $=50+(\frac{20}{100}\times 50)$

second lap $= 50 + 10$

second lap $= 60\ sec$

For third lap

Each subsequent lap takes 20% longer than previous

Previous lap time = 60 sec

Third lap = 60 + 20% of 60

$Third\ lap = 60 + (\frac{20}{100}\times 60)$

$Third\ lap = 60+2\times 6$

$Third\ lap = 60+12$

$Third\ lap = 72\ sec$

Time taken for 3 laps is equal to sum of all three laps time.

$Tiem\ taken\ for\ 3\ lap = 50+60+72$

$Tiem\ taken\ for\ 3\ lap = 182\ sec$

Therefore, it takes 182 seconds (3 min, 2 seconds) to run three laps

Beth read a total of 12 books over 7 months.

givi [52]

She has been with her book club for 49 months.

Step-by-step explanation:

Books read = 12 books

Time period = 7 months

Therefore,

12 books = 7 months

1 book = $\frac{7}{12}\ months$

Books read so far = 84 books

Total time period = x

84 books = x months

1 book = $\frac{x}{84}\ months$

Using both unit rates;

$\frac{x}{84}=\frac{7}{12}\\x=\frac{7}{12}*84\\x=\frac{588}{12}\\x=49\ months$

She has been with her book club for 49 months.

I think it's a pattern, so x would be 3 and y would be 5 for the first one

x would be 20 for the second

and i dont even do word problems so...

If US$1.00 is equivalent JA $75.00, What amount, in US dollars is equivalent JA $3300.00

emmasim [6.3K]

Answer:

It is US $44.00 Equivalent

Step-by-step explanation:

Using ratios (essentially fractions):

1 US : 75 JA

1 US = 75 JA

Dividing both sides by 75 gives us:

$\frac{1}{75}$ US = 1 JA

So if we have 3300 JA we can multiply both sides to get:

44 US = 3300 JA
