Answer: Brielle will run the marathon faster.
Brielle = 104.8 minutes
Joshua = 157.2 minutes
Step-by-step explanation:
Speed rate = distance /time
Brielle = 1.25 /10 = 0.125 miles per minute
Joshua = 1.5/18 = 0.083333 =1/12 miles per minute
Since 0.125 (Brielle) > 1/12 (Joshua)
Brielle will run the marathon faster.
To calculate the time that takes each one to run the entire race (13.1 miles)
Time= distance / speed
- Brielle = 13.1 /0.125 = 104.8 minutes
- Joshua = 13.1 / (1/12)= 157.2 minutes
Feel free to ask for more if needed or if you did not understand something.
Simplest way to do this:
number of books= 120
percentage represented by 120= 100%
increase current percent by 55%= 155%
: . 55% increase = original number of books * (155%)
= 120 * (155/100)
= 186
5.7 of anything minus 3.9 of the same thing leaves 1.8 of them.
Use the zeroes to figure this out... x=-18, y=9
Step-by-step explanation:
5(2h+8) <60
10h +40< 60
10h + 40-40 < 60-40
10h < 20
10h/10 < 20/10
h < 2
