The tortoise and the hare agree to a re-match. As they begin the race, the tortoise plods along slowly but confidently at 2 ½ mp

h. The hare zips ahead at 8 ½ mph, determined not to repeat his original mistake…and he doesn’t! The hare never slows down and reaches the finish line 45 minutes (3/4 of an hour) before the tortoise. How long did the tortoise run?

The tortoise ran a distance of 1.875 miles

The distance traveled or covered is obtained using the relation :

Distance = speed × time

Using the the time it took the hare to reach the finish line:

Time taken = 45 minutes (3/4 hours)

The speed of the tortoise = 2 1/2 mph = 2.5mph

Hence, the distance covered by the tortoise :

(2.5 mph × 3/4 hours) = 1.875 miles

The distance covered by the tortoise is 1.875 miles

What value of z will make △DEF ≅ △JKI
Leto [7]

Answer:

z = 11

Explanation:

5y + 13 = 6y

Subtract 5y by both sides.

13 = y

Next,

z + 22 = 3z

Subtract z by both sides.

22 = 2z

Then, divide both sides by 2.

11 = z

Finally plug those answers into the equations.

5(13) + 13 = 78

6(13) = 78

(11) + 22 = 33

3(11) = 33

So △DEF ≅ △JKI because the value of z = 11.

Someone please help me I’ll give out brainliest please dont answer if you don’t know
Katena32 [7]

Answer:

x≥−3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve your inequality step-by-step.

2x+3/ −3 ≤1

Step 1: Simplify both sides of the inequality.

−2/ 3 x−1≤1

Step 2: Add 1 to both sides.

−2/ 3 x−1+1≤1+1

−2/ 3 x≤2

Step 3: Multiply both sides by 3/(-2).

( 3/ −2 )*( −2/ 3 x)≤( 3/ −2 )*(2)

x≥−3

Answer:

x≥−3

If you know the number of yards for a measurement, you can change that measure to meters by multiplying the number of yards by 0
guajiro [1.7K]
Question 1)

Let "y" denotes the number of yards and "m" denotes the number of meters. According to the give statement, measurement in yards can be changed to measurement in meters by multiplying the measure in yards by 0.9144.

So,

Measure in Meter = 0.9144 x Measure in Yards
m = 0.9144y

Question 2)

We are to convert 7200 yards into meters. Using the values in above equation we can write:

m = 0.9144 x 7200
m = 6583.68 meters

This means 7200 yards are equivalent to 6583.68 meters..

Question 3)

We are to convert 2500 meters to yards.
Using the value in above equation, we get:

2500=0.9144y
⇒
y = 2500/0.9144
y = 2734.03 yards

So this means 2500 meters are equivalent to 2734.03 yards.
