If a football player runs 5/6 of a mile every 3/4th of a hour, that means every 1/4th a hour he runs 1.5/6th of a mile.
That means every 15 minutes the football player runs .2 of a mile. That means that every hour he runs :
0.8 of a mile!
Answer:
m = 2, n = - 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the 2 equations
2m + 3n = - 5 → (1)
5m + 3n = 1 → (2)
Subtract (2) from (1) term by term to eliminate n
2m - 5m = - 5 - 1
- 3m = - 6 ( divide both sides by - 3 )
m = 2
Substitute m = 2 into either of the 2 equations and solve for n
Substituting into (1)
2(2) + 3n = - 5
4 + 3n = - 5 ( subtract 4 from both sides )
3n = - 9 ( divide both sides by 3 )
n = - 3
Answer:
B
Step-by-step explanation:
3000-1000 = 2000
600-200 = + 400
40 - 20 = + 20
8 - 3 = + 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Let (2n +1) be the larger odd number by definition, where n can be any real integer. Then (2n - 1) is the smaller consecutive odd number.
The product of the 2 odd numbers is (2n + 1)(2n - 1) = 4n^2 - 1 = 2(2n^2) - 1. Since n^2 must be an integer, 2(2n^2) - 1 is odd. (Shown)
