Answer:

0.13 cm per second

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets convert the minutes to seconds:

3/4 minutes = 3/4(60) = 45 seconds

The snail traveled 5.85 cm in 45 seconds

To find out the speed per second, we set up a proportion:

\frac{5.85}{45} = \frac{x}{1}      where 45 and 1 represent the number of seconds, and 5.85 and x represent the distance in that set of time

Let's solve for x, or the distance in 1 second:

\frac{5.85}{45}=\frac{x}{1}\\\\\\\frac{5.85*1}{45x}\\\\\\x = \frac{5.85}{45}\\\\\\\\\\x = 0.13

The snail travels 0.13 cm per second.

TiliK225 [7]
She is expected to pay $4508 up front.

Application fee:  2% of 1300 = 0.02(1300) = 26
Credit application fee:  10
Security deposit:  1300
Last month's rent:  1300
Broker fee:  12% of year's rent = 0.12(1300)(12) = 1872

26+10+1300+1300+1872 = 4508

Find the difference. express the answer in scientific notation. (5.29 times 10 superscript 11 baseline) minus (3.86 times 10 sup
Georgia [21]

The difference between (5.29 times 10 superscript 11 baseline) minus (3.86 times 10 superscript 11 baseline) is 1. 43 × 10^11

<h3>How to determine the notation</h3>

Given the expression

(5. 29 × 10^11) - (3. 86 × 10 ^11)

First, find the common factor

10^11 ( 5. 29 - 3. 86)

Then substract the values within the bracket

10^11 (1. 43)

Multiply with the factor, we have

⇒1. 43 × 10^11

Thus, the difference between (5.29 times 10 superscript 11 baseline) minus (3.86 times 10 superscript 11 baseline) is 1. 43 × 10^11

Since it is given that Boris takes x minutes to run 5 miles it means that Boris' speed will be given as: \frac{5}{x}.

Now, if Dylan runs slower than Boris and takes 12 more minutes to complete the 5 miles run, then that would mean that Dylan takes (x+12) minutes to complete the same run.

In this case we can see the Dylan's speed will be \frac{5}{x+12}.

Thus, the denominator represents the time Dylan takes to run 5 miles if he takes 12 minutes more than Boris.

Therefore, out of the given options, the second option is the correct option.
