Answer:
Team 3 Turtle, by 4 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
The speeds of each of the turtles can be computed from ...
speed = distance/time
Then for each of the turtles, the training pace is ...
Team 1 Turtle: (18 ft)/(6 min) = 3 ft/min
Team 2 Turtle: (12 ft)/(4 min) = 3 ft/min
Team 3 Turtle: (10 ft)/(2 min) = 5 ft/min
The times required to cover the 30 ft distance at these paces are ...
time = distance/speed
3 ft/min ⇒ (30 ft)/(3 ft/min) = 10 min
5 ft/min ⇒ (30 ft)/(5 ft/min) = 6 min
The 2nd-place finishers will take 10-6=4 minutes longer.
The expected winner is Team 3 Turtle by 4 minutes.
Answer:
9 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Perimeter of equilateral triangle = 3x
Perimeter of square = 4x
3(x + 6) = 9 + 4x
3x + 18 = 9 + 4x
-x = -9
x = 9
Answer:
9
Step-by-step explanation:
11x3=33
3x3=9
To find the answer, you need to determine what the difference is. In this case, the difference is 6.
134 - 128 = 6
140 - 134 = 6
146 - 140 = 6
152 - 146 = 6
So, to find the answer you would add 6 to the next set of numbers to continue the pattern. For example -
152 + 6 = 158
158 + 6 = 164
In the general form of the equation y = mx + c, the slope is given by m.
The equation from the question can be rearranged a little to give y = -x -5, thus we can now compare directly with the general form above and see that m = -1, and so the answer is B.
