Answer:
1 mile = 1,609 meters is the key to converting the rates of the two swimmers
Step-by-step explanation:
there are 60 seconds in a minute and 60 minutes in an hour
so 1.8 meters/sec x 60 sec/min x 60 min/hr = 6480 meters/hr
now we convert meters to miles
6480 meters/1 hr x 1 mile/1609 meters = roughly 4 miles/hr (4.027)
or we can convert the other rate to meters/sec
2.5 mi/hr x 1hr/60 min x 1min/60 sec = 0.00069444 mi/sec
then convert miles to meters
0.00069444 mi/sec x 1609meters/ 1mi = roughly 1.1 meters/sec (1.117)
Division is repeated subtraction, just like multiplication is repeated addition. If you divide 50 by 10, you get 5. This is also the question: How many times do you have to subtract 10 from 50 to get 0?
Answer:
7 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
The values that make this statement falser are any in which a and b do not have the same sign.
For instance, if a was equal to 3 and b was equal to -3 than see the results.
|a+b|=
|3+-3|=
|0|= 0
Then see the next equation with the same selections
|a|+|b|
|3|+|-3|
3 + 3 = 6
And this would be true no matter which is the negative, as long as there is one negative and one positive.
