Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Givens
<em>Student A</em>
d = 3/4 mile
t = 6 minutes
<em>Student B</em>
d = 1/2 mile
t = 5 minutes
Note
In both cases, the units are the same, so unit conversion is not necessary.
Solution
<em>Student A</em>
r = d / t
r is the rate of travel in miles / minute
r = 3/4 / 6
r = 3.4 // 6/1 The 1 is put below the 6 so it is easier to divide. Invert the bottom and multiply.
r = 3/4 * 1/6
r = 3/24
r = 1/8 miles / minute
<em>Student B</em>
r = d / t
r = 1/2 // 5 / 1 Turn the bottom fraction upside down and multiply
r = 1/2 * 1/5
r = 1/10
Question
which is bigger: 1/8 or 1/10?
1/8 = 0.125
1/10 = 0.1
1/8 is bigger by 0.025
Answer
Student A is faster by 0.025 miles / minute.
Answer:
1/3a - 5 - (1/6a + 3) =
1/3a - 5 - 1/6a - 3 =
1/3a - 1/6a - 5 - 3 =
2/6a - 1/6a - 8 =
1/6a - 8 <===

Answer:
the answer is C 52ft
Step-by-step explanation:
first add 3.4 + 2.6 then you subtract your answer with 2.8
-8 is not a solution to 512 because when you multiply 2 negative numbers together it becomes positive, but you're multiplying it three times. so - 8 * -8 = 64 but if you multiply -8 again the solution will be a -512 not a positive 512
