Answer: The speed of red horse = 44 feet per second and the speed of black horse = 35.2 feet per second.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: A red horse and a black horse raced on a 1-mile-long circular racetrack.

Time taken by red horse = 120 seconds

Time taken by black horse = 150 seconds

Speed = \dfrac{Distance}{Time}

So, speed of red horse =\dfrac{1}{120}\text{ mile per second}

Since 1 mile = 5280 feet

Speed of red horse = \dfrac{5280}{120} =44\text{ feet per second}

Similarly,

Speed of black horse = \dfrac{5280}{150} =35.2\text{ feet per second}

Hence, the speed of red horse = 44 feet per second and the speed of black horse = 35.2 feet per second.

JulsSmile [24]

Answer: Each dozen of chocolate chip cookies costs $1.50/dozen. So if you sell C dozens of them, you win C*$1.50 dollars, where C is a positive integer number. Similar case for the lemon ones, the baker will win L*$1.00 dollars if he sells L dozens of them ( where L is a positive integer), the total charge is the sum of both parts; T = L*$1.00 + C*$1.50.
