Answer: 1.67 feet in 1 second

Step-by-step explanation: To find out how far the penguin walked in 1 second, you’ll have to divide 10 by 6 or use the ratio 10 : 6 and divide. You should get a final answer or result of 1.67 feet in 1 second.

*Tip: If you want to make sure your answer is correct, simply multiply your answer times 6, and see if it equals to 10 or is near 10.

Answer:

5/3 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

10 ft = 6s

x ft = 1s

cross multiply

10ft × 1s = 6s × x

{divide both sides by The coefficient of x (6x) }

(10 ft × s) ÷ 6s= x

10 ft ÷ 6 = x

5/3 ft = x

x = 5/3 ft

Which of the following equations have the solution v=3v=3?

kari74 [83]

ANSWER:

v = 3 is only a solution to equations 1 and 5.

STEP-BY-STEP EXPLAINATION:

Equation 1:

$\frac{v}{3} + 9 = 10$

$\frac{v}{3} = 10 - 9$

$\frac{v}{3} = 1$

$v = 1(3)$

$v = 3$

Therefore, v = 3 is a solution.

Equation 2:

$4 = 7v - 24$

$4 + 24 = 7v$

$28 = 7v$

$\frac{28}{7} = v$

$4 = v$

Therefore, v = 3 is not a solution.

Equation 3:

$16 = 2 + 5v$

$16 - 2 = 5v$

$14 = 5v$

$\frac{14}{5} = v$

Therefore, v = 3 is not a solution.

Equation 4:

$5 - 7v = 19$

$- 7v = 19 - 5$

$- 7v = 14$

$v = \frac{14}{ - 7}$

$v = - 2$

Therefore, v = 3 is not a solution.

Equation 5:

$3 + 2v = 9$

$2v = 9 - 3$

$2v = 6$

$v = \frac{6}{2}$

$v = 3$

Therefore, v = 3 is a solution.
