Debra travels a distance of 2 miles in 1 minute how much distance can she cover in 25 minutes
Marta_Voda [28]

Debra will travel 50 miles in 25 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

distance = 2 miles

Time = 1 minute

Other time = 25 minutes

We can use the proportions to find the number of miles debra will travel in 25 minutes

So,

Distance:Time::Distance:Time\\2:1::Distance:25\\\frac{2}{1} = \frac{Distance}{25}\\Distance = 25 *2\\= 50\ miles

Hence,

Debra will travel 50 miles in 25 minutes

A meter stick casts a shadow 2.4 m long at the same time a flagpole casts a shadow 9.7 m long. How tall is the flagpole
Luda [366]
The first thing we are going to do is draw a diagram of the situation to help us to solve the situation.
We an draw tow similar triangle between the length of the shadows and the height of the stick and the pole.
Since <span>meter stick has a length of 1 meter, the height of our smaller triangle is 1 meter. Let </span>h be height of of the pole. Since both triangles are similiar we can establish a proportion between their corresponding sides and solve for h:
\frac{h}{1} = \frac{9.7}{2.4}
h=\frac{9.7}{2.4}
h=4.04

We can conclude that the pole is 4.04 meters tall.

A store manager is accepting applications for part-time workers. he can hire no more than 14 people. so far,he has hired 9 peopl
Lorico [155]

The manager already hired 9 people. Let x be the number of people he still can hire. Since these people will add to the 9 he already hired, when the hiring campaign will be over he will have hired 9+x people. We know that he can't hire more than 14 people, so the number of people hired must be less than or equal to 14:

9+x \leq 14

If we subtract 9 from both sides, we have

x \leq 14-9=5

so, the manager can hire at most 5 other people
