To get the *percent increase* from week 1 to week 2, we calculate the change in distance from week 1 to week 2 (13.5 - 12.5 = 1 mile) over the week 1 distance (12.5 miles). Doing that, we find that Matthew increased his distance by
1/12.5 = 0.08, or 8%
We’re given that he’ll increase his distance by the same percentage from week 2 to 3, so to find his week 3 distance, we can find 8% of the week 2 distance and add that on. 8% of 13.5 miles is 0.08 x 13.5 = 1.08 miles, so by week 3, he’ll be running 13.5 + 1.08 = 14.58 miles.
Answer:
(5/2)√13 ≈ 9.0139
Step-by-step explanation:
The longer hypotenuse is found using the Pythagorean theorem as ...
The right triangles are AA similar, and vertical sides correspond. Their ratio, smaller/larger is 5/8. That means the hypotenuse of the smaller triangle, A, is 5/8 of the hypotenuse of the larger one.
