Based on the information given, the speed is 20 miles per hour.

From the information given, the winner of the local triathlon swam 0.5 miles, biked 15 miles and ran 2.5 miles and he finished the race in 54 minutes.

Note that 54 minutes = 0.9 hour.

The speed will be:

= (0.5 + 15 + 2.5) / 0.9

= 18/0.9

= 20 miles per hour.

$\dfrac{7}{4} - \dfrac{3}{2} - \dfrac{2}{5}$

$= \dfrac{7 \times 5}{4 \times 5} - \dfrac{3 \times 10}{2 \times 10} - \dfrac{2 \times 4}{5 \times 4}$

$= \dfrac{35}{20} - \dfrac{30}{20} - \dfrac{8}{20}$

$= \dfrac{35-30-8}{20}$

$= \dfrac{3}{20}$

---------------------------------------------------------------

$-\dfrac{5}{16} + \dfrac{3}{4} + \dfrac{1}{8}$

$= -\dfrac{5}{16} + \dfrac{3 \times 4}{4 \times 4} + \dfrac{1 \times 2}{8 \times 2}$

$= -\dfrac{5}{16} + \dfrac{12}{16} + \dfrac{2}{16}$

$= \dfrac{-5+ 12 + 2}{16}$

$= \dfrac{9}{16}$

---------------------------------------------------------------

$\dfrac{3}{4} - \dfrac{1}{3} - \dfrac{7}{12}$

$= \dfrac{3 \times 3}{4 \times 3} - \dfrac{1 \times 4}{3 \times 4} - \dfrac{7}{12}$

$= \dfrac{9}{12} - \dfrac{4}{12} - \dfrac{7}{12}$

$= \dfrac{9 - 4 - 7}{12}$

$= -\dfrac{2}{12}$

$= -\dfrac{1}{6}$

---------------------------------------------------------------

$\dfrac{2}{9} - \dfrac{2}{12} - \dfrac{2}{3}$

$= \dfrac{2}{9} - \dfrac{1}{6} - \dfrac{2}{3}$

$= \dfrac{2 \times 2}{9 \times 2} - \dfrac{1 \times 3}{6 \times 3} - \dfrac{2 \times 6}{3 \times 6}$

$= \dfrac{4}{18} - \dfrac{3}{18} - \dfrac{12}{18}$

$= \dfrac{4 - 3 - 12}{18}$

$= - \dfrac{11}{18}$

Help pls i don’t know how to do this

Vlada [557]

Answer:

m∠1= 79

Step-by-step explanation:

What we have here is two vertical lines and one intersecting point.

The m∠1 and m∠6 are vertical angles, which means that they equal to each other. So, the equation would be: 6x+25= 10x-11.

Step 1- Subtract 6x to both sides.

6x+25= 10x-11

-6x -6x

25= 4x-11

Step 2- Add 11 to both sides.

25= 4x-11

+11 +11

36= 4x

Step 3- Divide both sides by 4.

<u>36</u>= <u>4x</u>

4 4

x= 9

Now that we know the value of the variable x, substitute it into the equation for m∠1.

m∠1= 10(9)-11

m∠1= 90-11

m∠= 79

<u>Check </u>

m∠6= 6(9)+25

m∠6= 54+25

m∠6= 79

Since m∠1 and m∠6 are vertical angles, they should equal each other.
