Answer:

The answer is 720 meters.

Explanation:

There is 90 seconds in 1.5 minutes, so if the swimmer can swim 8 meters per second you have to multiply 8 meters by the 90 seconds. 8 x 90 = 720, so the swimmer can swim 720 meters in 1.5 minutes.

So hmmm check the picture below

so, we're looking for dr/dt then at 4:00pm or 4 hours later

now, keep in mind that, the distance "x", is not changing, is constant whilst "y" and "r" are moving, that simply means when taking the derivative, that goes to 0

$\bf r^2=x^2+y^2\implies 2r\cfrac{dr}{dt}=0+2y\cfrac{dy}{dt}\implies \cfrac{dr}{dt}=\cfrac{y\frac{dy}{dt}}{r}\quad 
\begin{cases}
\cfrac{dy}{dt}=30\\
r=130\\
y=120
\end{cases}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{dr}{dt}=\cfrac{120\cdot 30}{130}$

What is 36 to 21 ratio in simplest form?

OLga [1]

36:21 in simplest form is 12:7, because 3 goes into both 36 and 21. Simplifying ratios is essentially the same thing as simplifying fractions. Once we have 12:7, we can't reduce any further, because 7 is prime.

Hope this helps!
