Answer:

They run at the same speed

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you have to find a way seeing how fast both animals run in the same amount of time. You can find out how fast they both run in one second.

60 feet in 6 seconds is how many feet in one second? Well, you can do 60/6 (60 divided by 6) and you will see that in one second, the cheetah can run 10 feet

100 feet in 10 seconds is how many feet in one second? Same thing, you can do 100/10 (100 divided by 10) and you will see that the gazelle can run 10 feet in one second.

Finally, you compare the two answers from the two animals. For the cheetah, we learned that it can run 10 feet in one second, and for the gazelle, we learned that it can run 10 feet in one second. So, we know that they run at the same speed.

Thank you! Please let me know if this was helpful!

Answer:

Cheeta's speed = 10 feet per second

Gazelle's speed = 10 feet per second

Hence, They run at the same speed.

Step-by-step explanation:

Determining the Cheeta's speed:

Covered distance = 60 feet

Time taken = 6 seconds

Speed = Covered distance / Time taken

           = 60 / 6

           = 10 feet per second

Therefore, Cheeta's speed is 10 feet per second.

Determining the Gazelle's speed:

Covered distance = 100 feet

Time taken = 10 seconds

Speed = Covered distance / Time taken

           = 100 / 10

           = 10 feet per second

Therefore, Gazelle's speed is 10 feet per second.

Conclusion:

Cheeta's speed = 10 feet per second

Gazelle's speed = 10 feet per second

Hence, They run at the same speed.

One soda and one taco costs $2.1. Two sodas and three tacos cost $5.15. Find the cost of a soda and a taco. Whoever answer this
DaniilM [7]

Answer:

Soda costs $1.15 and taco costs $0.95.

Step-by-step explanation:

x + y = 2.1

2x + 3y = 5.15

Multiply the first equation by -2 to eliminate x

-2x - 2y = -4.2

2x + 3y = 5.15

Add

          y = 0.95

Find x with the original first equation

x + y = 2.1

x + 0.95 = 2.1

x = 2.1 - 0.95

x = 1.15

hope it helps :)

The population of town is 32600. about 27% are over 60 years old. About 19% are 16 or under. How many are between 16 and 60?
I am Lyosha [343]

Answer:

Number of population between  16 and 60 =17,604

Step-by-step explanation:

population of town = 32600

Percentage of people over 60 years old=27%

Percentage of people 16 or under =19%

Percentage of people between  16 and 60= 100%-(27% +19%)

100-(46) =54%

Number of population between  16 and 60 =Percentage of people between  16 and 60 x population of town

=54% x 32600

=17,604

Round 479.16 to the nearest tenths
tatyana61 [14]

The tenths place would be the digit right after the decimal point, and we want to round 479.16 to the nearest tenths.

The number in the tenths place is 1. Now we have to decide if we're going to round up or down

  • If the next digit is greater than or equal to 5, we round up (add 1 to the digit); if it isn't, then we round down (the digit stays the same).

The digit after the tenths place is "6", which is greater than 5. Thus, the "1" is rounded up to a "2"

Answer: 479.16 to the nearest tenths is 479.2.

Let me know if you need any clarifications, thanks!
