Hi there! I can help you! To solve this question, we can write and solve a proportion. Candida ran 100 yards in 12.7 seconds and the timekeeper ran 100 yards in 11.4 seconds. Let's start with Candida.  We could solve this by setting up the proportion to make it look like this: 100/12.7 = 220/x. You do this, because we're looking for the amount of time it would take for Candida to run 220 yards. Le'ts cross multiply the values. When you do that, you get 2,794 = 100x. Now, divide each side by 100 to isolate the "x". When you do, you get x = 27.94. x = 27.94. We found Candida's time. Now, let's look for the other person's time. Set up a proportion again. 100/11.4 = 220/x. We are looking for the other person's time. Repeat the steps. Cross multiply the values in order to get 2,508 = 100x. Now, divide each side by 100 to isolate the "x". When you do, you get 25.08. x = 25.08. We found the other person's time. Here are the answers easier to read.

Amount of time to run 220 yards

Candida: 27.94 seconds
Other person's time: 25.08 seconds

What is the unit rate of 1.49 for 10
kap26 [50]

If you mean it costs $1.49 to buy 10 items, then the unit rate is $0.15 or 15 cents

This is because you divide 1.49 over 10 like so: 1.49/10 = 0.149, then round this to the nearest penny to get 0.15

0.15 dollars = 15 cents

so basically whatever this item is, it costs 15 cents per item
