Llana [10]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

The numerical length of BD is 20 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us solve the question

∵ Point C lies on the line segment BD

→ That means C divides BD into 2 parts

∴ C divides BD into 2 parts BC and CD

∴ BD = BC + CD

∵ BD = 5x

∵ BC = 4x

∵ CD = 4

→ Substitute them in the equation above

∴ 5x = 4x + 4

→ Subtract 4x from both sides

∵ 5x - 4x = 4x - 4x + 4

∴ x = 4

→ Substitute the value of x in the expression of BD

∵ BD = 5x

∵ x = 4

∴ BD = 5(4) = 20

∴ The numerical length of BD is 20 units

Mia can run at a rate of 360 feet per minute. Approximately how many minutes would she take to run a 500-yard stretch of road an
tankabanditka [31]

Step-by-step explanation:

since we know, she can run 360 ft per minute, and we want to know how many minutes she would need to run 500 yards we need to find out how often 360 ft fit into 500 yards.

so,

500 yards / 360 ft

how can we make this division ?

help is given to us by taking us that 1 yard = 3 ft.

aha !

so, 500 yards = 500×3 ft = 1500 ft

therefore, our task now looks like

1500 ft / 360 ft

and this we understand and can do, right ?

1500 / 360 = 150/36 = 75/18 = 4 3/18 = 4 1/6 minutes

the closest answer option is therefore 4.2, meaning she would take about 4.2 minutes to run 500 yards.
