Descent = 10 feet
Time required = 2 1/2 minutes.
The rate of descent = (10 feet)/(2.5 mn) = 4 ft/min

In 6 minutes, the descent will be
(4 ft/min)*(6 min) = 24 ft

Answer:

AnnZ [28]

D is distance which is 72 meters
time represents seconds which is 12
so ratio is 12:72
reduce to get 1:6
time over distance would be 1/6
every second Eddie runs 6 meters
so t= d/6
or 6t=d

Which is the best to buy?<br> a) 6 shirts for $25.50 b) 4 shirts for $18.00 c) 5 shirts for $21

katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

C. 5 Shirts for $21

Step-by-step explanation:

I conclude this when I calculate the amount of money needed for a singular shirt in every "bundle" by using division.

First I calculated how much you'd have to pay for one shirt in the six-pack collection fo shirts, and I resulted in $4.25 for each shirt. The problem in number form is: 25.50÷6=4.24. By dividing the total with six you result in the singular price of the individual price of each shirt in the pack.

As for the other packs, my calculations resulted in $4.50 for the 4 shirts pack and $4.20 for the 5shirts pack.
