To find the average speed for the whole race, you just have to add the speed from a starting marker and the speed from the turnaround marker going back and divide it by 2 since there are only two speeds involved.

10 m/s + 16m/s = 26 m/s / 2 = 13 m/s

Therefore, the average speed for the whole race is 13 m/s.

<span>Average speed = Total Distance/Total time ------(1) Let us assume that the distance from starting marker to turnaround marker is 'x' Total distance travelled = 2x Speed from starting marker to turnaround marker , s1 = 10 m/s Speed from turnaround market to starting market , s2 - 16 m/s Let, Time taken from starting marker to turnaround marker be t1 Time taken from turnaround marker to starting marker be t2. Applying these values in equation (1), Average speed = (2x)/(t1+t2) -------(2) From (1), t1 = x/s1 = x/10 t2 = x/s2 = x/16 Substituting the above in (2), Average speed = (2x)/(x/10+x/16) m/s = (2x)/(13x/80) m/s = 160/13 m/s = 12.3 m/s We can also arrive at the average speed by using the formula 2(s1)(s2)/(s1+s2)</span>

What is the total cost of $ 2.95 notebook plus 5 %
nordsb [41]
First, you convert 5% to decimal. For your info, percents are always equal to 100. So, you divide 5 by a 100, which gives you 0.05. Then, you multiply 2.95 by 0.05. 2.95 x 0.05 is 0.1475 which is about 0.15. Then, you add 0.15 to 2.95. The total cost of a $2.95 notebook plus 5% is about $3.10.
