How is 3/5 and 8/10 Are equivalent fractions?

4 0

Hi!

These are not equivalent fractions because 8/10 reduces to 4/5, not 3/5, therefore, they are not equivalent.

I walk each day to school. By what percentage would I need to increase my usual average speed in order for the journey to take 2

lesya692 [45]

Answer:

25%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let v, t be the current average speed and the time taken to reach the school respectively.

As distance = speed x time, so,

distance, d=vt...(i)

Let V be the new average speed in order to to take 20% less time than t.

So, time taken with speed V = t-20% of t = t- 0.2t= 0.8t

As distance is constant, so

d= V(0.8t)= 0.8Vt

hBy using equation (i), we have

0.8Vt = vt

0.8 V = v

V= v/0.8=1.25v

Therefore, the percentage increase in the average speed = $\frac{V-v}{v}\times 100$

$=\frac{1.25v-v}{v}\times 100$

=25%

Hence, the percentage increase in the average speed is 25%.

Can someone help me with this please?

29.) This is simply interpreting the linear function.
The function:
96+2.1x
a.) The 96 is what you start with from the beginning. So, we know Rachel weighed 96 ounces when she was born.
b.) Again, interpretation. The 2.1 is the slope, or the change in the line. So we know that Rachel gains 2.1 ounces each day.
30.) For this one, you just have to plug 9 into the equation for x.
