Mathematics
1 answer:
Luda [366]2 years ago

Answer:

5.1 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

she ran 3 2/5 miles in 2/3 hours.

that is the essential information to solve the problem. everything else is just there to give you "atmosphere" and Shao to confuse you.

the question is simply : what was her speed in mph ?

that means we need to bring the ratio of

3 2/5 miles / 2/3 hours

to 1 hour in the denominator (instead of 2/3 hours).

because we need that to express miles per (one) hour.

so, what do we need to multiply 2/3 with to get 1 (=3/3) ?

2/3 × x = 1

2x = 3

x = 3/2

so, to get 1 hour, we need to multiply the denominator by 3/2.

and to keep the original value of the ratio, we need to multiply also the numerator by the same 3/2.

speed = (3 2/5 miles × 3/2) / (2/3 hours × 3/2) =

= (17/5 miles × 3/2) / (1 hour) = 51/10 miles / 1 hour =

= 5.1 miles / 1 hour = 5.1 mph

Find the value of x. Polygon angle sums
pav-90 [236]

Answer:

x = 50

Step-by-step explanation:

In a polygon, the angles add up to 360°:

x + 10 + 2x + 3x + x = 360

7x + 10 = 360

7x = 350

x = 50

Given the arithmetic sequence with the following two
kondor19780726 [428]

Answer:

aₙ = -15 + 10 * (n-1)

Step-by-step explanation:

aₙ = a₁ + (n-1)*d       a₁: first term     d: common difference

a₅  a₁ + 4d =25 .... (1)

a₁₁  a₁ + 10d = 85   ...(2)

(2) - (1)     6d = 60

d = 10

a₁ = -15

Formula: aₙ = -15 + 10 * (n-1)

Given: ΔАВС, m∠ACB = 90°,m∠ACD = 30°,AD = 8 cm. Find: CD, Perimeter ΔABC <br><br> Please solve!
sukhopar [10]
If m ACD = 30 => m DCB = 60.
In triangle ACD:
sin 30^{o}=sin  \frac{AD}{AC} =\ \textgreater \   \frac{1}{2}  =  \frac{8}{AC} =\ \textgreater \  AC=16&#10;
CD= 8 \sqrt{3}
BC= 16\sqrt{3}
AC^{2}+CB^{2}=AB^{2} => AB=\sqrt{1024}=32.
=> P=16+32+16 \sqrt{3}=48 +16 \sqrt{3}.
