We know that:
time=distance/speed
if the tortoise speed is x m/min, then since 0.5 m/hr=1/120 m/min
18/x=23+18/(x+1/120)
solving for x we get:
x=0.08 m/min
speed of hare is:
(0.08+1/120)=0.088 m/min

8 plus 6 to the 2nd power over 11 plus 7 times 2
Paul [167]
Ok
Lets start:
6^{2} is 36
then you add 8 which would be 44.
then do 7 times 2 which is 14, then add 11, which is 25.
\frac{44}{25} is 44 divided by 25, which would be 1.76

I need help with some maths homework what is the answer 3(x-3)=0
densk [106]
If xy=0
assume that at least x or y=0

3(x-3)=0
therefor
3=0 or x-3=0
3=0 is false
therefor
x-3 mus equal zero
x-3=0
add 3 to both sides
x=3
