Answer:

System of equations:

20x + 30y = 650

x + y = 25

Time underwater = 10 hours

Time at the surface = 15 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = time underwater at 20 km/h.

Let y = time on the surface at 30 km/h.

speed = distance/time

distance = speed * time

distance underwater: 20x

distance on the surface: 30y

total distance: 650

20x + 30y = 650

total time: x + y

total time: 25

x + y = 25

20x + 30y = 650

x + y = 25

20x + 30y = 650

-20x - 20y = -500

--------------------------------

10y = 150

y = 15

x + y = 25

x + 15 = 25

x = 10

The first thing you do is to find the lowest common multiple of 5 and 7.What you do on the bottom, you must do on the top 25/35 / 28/35. The answer is 25/28. Sara ran 25/28 of the total distance around the track.

I believe it's C) 60 because ideally it would be 3 for every 25, 20 x 25 = 200, so then you would do 3 x 20 = 60

If you assume the samples are representative how many whole wheat bagels might you infer are sold at each store

Alexxandr [17]

Maurine owns three bagel shops. Each shop sells 500 bagels per day. Maureen asks her store managers to use a random sample to see how many whole wheat bagels are sold at each store each day. Shop A has total of 50 bagels in sample and 10 are whole wheat bagels. Store B has a total of 100 bagels in sample and 23 are whole wheat bagels. Shop C has 25 total bagels in sample and 7 are whole wheat bagels.

We find fraction of whole wheat bagels to the sample for each shop using given information

Shop A = $\frac{10}{50} = 0.20$
