Answer:

15/8

Step-by-step explanation:

Let "d" be the total distance, that is, the distance for swimming (s), running (r) and going by bike (b).

d = s + r + b   [1]

1/24 of the total distance is covered by  swimming.

s = 1/24 d   [2]

1/3 of the distance is covered by running.

r = 1/3 d  [3]

If we replace [2] and [3] in [1], we get

d = 1/24 d + 1/3 d + b

b = d - 1/24 d - 1/3 d

b = 24/24 d - 1/24 d - 8/24 d

b = 15/24 d = 5/8 d

The ratio of  the distance covered by bike to the distance covered by running is:

b/r = (5/8 d)/(1/3 d) = 15/8

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Remark

I really don't know what to write to these questions. I can never tell what the problem is. Perhaps it is right at the very beginning. You have to recognize what is taking place. In problem 9, the easiest point to follow is H going to H'. Do you see what is happening? H is sitting on the x axis and then something happens to it and behold, it is now sitting on the y axis. So it has rotated 90 degrees but which way?

Take your finger or a pencil and put it on H. Then make a circular motion to get to H'. You are going clockwise. (keep going in that direction till you wind up where you started. You are going in the direction of one of those old fashioned clocks. Now the trick in a rotation is if you can figure out what one point is doing, you know what all points are doing on the given figure.

So the translation is 90 degrees clockwise. That means the following rule must be operating

(x,y) ===> (y, - x)

H(-3,0) ===> H'(0, - - 3) = H'(0,3)

I(-2,1) =====>I'(1, - - 2) = H'(1,2)

J(0,1) =====>J'(1,0)

G(-3,-3)====>G'(-3, --3) = G'(-3,3)

11

At first you may think that this is a translation of some kind. I thought so at first. D and D' certainly look that way and C and C' also look that way. But B and E are not well behaved. You are looking at a 180 degree rotation

The rule you need here is (x,y) becomes (-x , - y)

I'll leave C and D to you and do one of the B and E

E(3,5)=E'(-3 , - 5)

It will be 6 cause it is going by 1+ 1,2,3,4,5,6 (if it was 1,3,6,9, it will be 12 cause it is going by 3+) so answer is 6

Answer:

-7, then -13, then -19

Step-by-step explanation:

Plug in x values to get y.

y = -2(0) - 7

y = 0 - 7

y = -7

y = -2(3) - 7

y = -6 - 7

y = -13

y = -2(6) - 7

y = -12 - 7

y = -19

Hope this helps. :0)
