The team ran 2 miles.
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1; The track is
miles long and the team ran 2
laps on it. To calculate the distance run we multiply the number of laps ran with the distance on each lap.
Distance run = Number of laps × Distance on each lap.
Step 2; We convert 2
from a mixed fraction into an improper fraction. To do this, we multiply the whole number with the denominator of the fraction and add with it the numerator of the same fraction whereas the denominator remains unchanged. To convert the fraction 2
= ((2 × 3) + 2) / 3 =
.
Distance run = Number of laps × Distance on each lap =
×
=
= 2 miles.
Answer:
b = 6 sqrt(2)
Step-by-step explanation:
Since this is right triangle, we can use the Pythagorean theorem
a^2+b^2 = c^2 where a and b are the legs and c is the hypotenuse
3^2 + b^2 = 9^2
9+b^2 = 81
b^2 = 81-9
b^2 = 72
Take the square root of each side
sqrt(b^2) = sqrt(72)
b = sqrt(36*2)
b = 6 sqrt(2)
