Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the time taken to reach 12,000 feet = x

Distance traveled in 1 minute = 2000 ft

Distance traveled in 'x' minute = 2000 * x = 2000x

30,000 - 2000x = 12000

Add 2000x to both sides

30,000 = 12000 + 2000x

Now subtract 12,000 from both sides

30000 - 12 000 = 2000x

2000x =  18 000

Divide both sides  by 2000

x = 18000/2000

x = 9 minutes

Jack can build 1/5 of a shed in the same time Kyle build 5/8 of a shed. How much of a shed will jack have built when Kyle has fi
nadya68 [22]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If Kyle can get 5/8 of a shed built in x amount of time, he can get 62.5% done; if Jack can get 1/5 of the shed built in the same time, he can 20% of it done. As a ratio:

\frac{Kyle}{Jack}:\frac{62.5}{20}  Kyle gets the whole thing done, 100% of the way, leaving Jack lagging behind at a somewhat lower percentage of the work being done.

\frac{Kyle}{Jack}:\frac{62.5}{20}=\frac{100}{x} and cross multiply to solve for the percentage of the shed built by Jack by the time Kyle gets it completed:

62.5x = 2000 so

x = 32%
