Answer: the rate uphill is 6 mph.
The rate downhill is 10 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the rate at which the jogger ran uphill.
The jogger runs 4 miles per hour faster downhill than uphill. This means that speed at which the jogger ran downhill is (x + 4) mph
Time = distance/speed
if the jogger can runs 5 miles downhill, then the time taken to run downhill is
5/(x + 4)
At the same time, the jogger runs 3 miles uphill. It means that the time taken to run uphill is
3/x
Since the time is the same, it means that
5/(x + 4) = 3/x
Cross multiplying, it becomes
5 × x = 3(x + 4)
5x = 3x + 12
5x - 3x = 12
2x = 12
x = 12/2
x = 6
The rate downhill is 6 + 4 = 10 mph
Answer:
A = 1.0 L
B = 0.50 atm
C = 0.60 atm
D = 4.0 L
Step-by-step explanation:
According to the Boyle's law, the volume of a gas is inversely proportional to its volume. If we consider an initial state (1) and a final state (2):
P₁ × V₁ = P₂ × V₂
A
P₁ × V₁ = P₂ × V₂
1.5 atm × 2.0 L = 3.0 atm × A
A = 1.0 L
B
P₁ × V₁ = P₂ × V₂
1.5 atm × 2.0 L = B × 6.0 L
B = 0.50 atm
C
P₁ × V₁ = P₂ × V₂
1.5 atm × 2.0 L = C × 5.0 L
C = 0.60 atm
D
P₁ × V₁ = P₂ × V₂
1.5 atm × 2.0 L = 0.75 atm × D
D = 4.0 L
7) A. 1.8
divide 9 by 5
8) B. 0.444...
divide 4 by 9
9) You're correct: It's D. 3/5
Divide 1 1/5 by 2
14.5% = 0.145 = 145/1000
14.5 = 14500/1000
<span>So 14.5% is a hundredth the size of 14.5, so they are not equal and the friend is incorrect.</span>
