As for this problem, it would be best to approach this with a ratio to ratio approach. This would then involve the equation with fractions which is the common conversion from ratios to easily solve the problems concerning these. The equation then would look somehow like this:
0.01 miles / 1 hour = x miles / 2.4 hours
The easiest way would be just to multiply the numerator, which is the miles, to 2.4. So when it is multiplied to the numerator, the equation then would turn to:
0.01 miles x 2.4 / 1 hour = x miles / 2.4 hours
0.024 miles would be the answer.
The least common denominator is 36
Answer:
Length = 30m and Breadth = 10m
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that :
Perimeter = 80 m ;
Breadth = 1/3 of Length ; Length = l
We know that :
Perimeter of rectangle = 2 ( L + B ).
80 = 2 ( L + 1/3 L )
80/2 = 4/3 L.
40 = 4/3 L
3/4 × 40 = L.
3 × 10 = L.
L = 30m.
Breadth = 1/3 of Length.
Breadth = 1/3 × 30.
Breadth = 10m.
The ratio 1:50 means that an ant can carry an object heavy 50 times its mass.
So, if the mass of the ant is 0.4 grams, it can carry at most 50 times that mass, i.e. 50x0.4 = 20 grams
In order to answer the second question, you need to consider your mass and multiply it by 50: if you were as strong as an ant, you could lift that weight!
MP = P - M = (0, 5) - (5, 6) = (0-5, 5-6) = (-5, -1) |MP| = √((-5)^2 + (-1)^2) = √(25+1) = √26
