Answer:

3.08 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

We assume you're interested in the time in hours.

$175\text{ mi}\times\dfrac{12\text{ s}}{1000\text{ ft}}\times\dfrac{5280\text{ ft}}{1\text{ mi}}\times\dfrac{1\text{ h}}{3600\text{ s}}=\dfrac{175\times12\times5280}{1000\times3600}\text{ h}=\boxed{3.08\text{ h}}$

It will take 3.08 hours to travel 175 miles at that speed.

A scientist needs to make 2 liters of saline solution (salt water), in which the salt

gulaghasi [49]

Answer:

1.60 L of 10% solution

0.40 L of 35% solution

Step-by-step explanation:

If x = amount of 10% saline solution, and y = amount of 35% saline solution, then:

x + y = 2

0.10x + 0.35y = 0.15(2)

Solve with substitution:

0.10x + 0.35(2 − x) = 0.15(2)

0.10x + 0.70 − 0.35x = 0.30

0.40 = 0.25x

x = 1.60

y = 0.40

Rebecca went swimming yesterday. After a while she had covered one fifth of her intended distance. After swimming six more lengt

alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

Option E.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the intended length of Rebecca's swimming is = x units

and we assume the length of the pool = l units

Now it is given in the question that " She covers one fifth of her intended distance "

That means distance covered = $\frac{x}{5}$

" After swimming six more lengths of the pool she had covered one quarter of her intended distance"

So $\frac{x}{5}+6(l)=\frac{x}{4}$

$6l=\frac{x}{4}-\frac{x}{5}$

$6l=\frac{x}{20}$

x = 20×(6l)

x = 120l

Therefore, Rebecca has to complete 120 lengths of the pool.

Option E is the answer.
