An ostrich can run 25 miles in 40 minutes. How many minutes will it take the ostrich

Mathematics

MatroZZZ [7]3 years ago

Step-by-step explanation:

25 miles / 40 minutes is the reference speed.

speed is always expressed in distance/time.

for different distances the ratio of rate between distance and time must be the same, if the speed is truly the same.

so,

25 miles / 40 minutes = 40 miles / x minutes

x minutes × 25 miles = 40 minutes × 40 miles

x minutes = 40 minutes × 40 miles / 25 miles =

= 40 minutes × 8/5 = 8×8 = 64 minutes

the ostrich will need 64 minutes for 40 miles.

It will take the Ostrich 64 minutes to run 40 miles, at the same speed

The distance-time ratio is given as:

Distance : Time = 25 miles : 40 minutes

When the distance is 40 miles, the ratio equation becomes

40 miles : Time = 25 miles : 40 minutes

Express as fraction

\frac{Time}{40} = \frac{40}{25}

Multiply both sides by 40

Times = \frac{40}{25} * 40

Solve for times

Time =64

Hence, it will take 64 minutes to run 40 miles

14. 
Angles 4 and 6 are supplementary, because they are on the same line. Supplementary angles add up to 180 degrees, and a line must be 180 degrees.

15.
Angles 1 and 8 are congruent, because they are alternate exterior angles

16.
m = y2 - y1 / x2 - x1
m = 7 - 2 / 4 - 5
m = 5 / -1
m = -5

17.
m = 3 - 3 / 7 - (-5)
m = 0 / 12
m = 0

18.
m = 1 - (-2) / 5 - (-4)
m = 3 / 9
m = 1/3

19.
A = (0, 3) - B = (3,0)
m = 0 - 3 / 3 - 0
m = -3 / 3
<em>m = -1</em>
C = (0, -2) - D = (4, 2)
m = 2 - (-2) / 4 - 0
m = 4 / 4
<em>m = 1</em>
Perpendicular, because the slopes are opposite reciprocals.

20.
E = (1, 2) - F = (0, 0)
m = 0 - 2 / 0 - 1
m = -2 / -1
<em>m = 2</em>
G = (1, -3) - H = (3, 0) 
m = 0 - (-3) / 3 - 1
<em>m = 3 / 2</em>
Neither, because the slopes are different.

21.
I = (0, 1) - J = (2, -4)
m = -4 - 1 / 2 - 0
<em>m = -5/2</em>
K = (-1, -2) - L = (4, 0)
m = 0 - (-2) / 4 - (-1)
<em>m = 2/5</em>
Perpendicular, because the slopes are opposite reciprocals.

22.
M = (-2, 2) - N = (2, 2)
Horizontal line
<em>m = 0</em>
O = (3, 0) - P = (-3, 0)
Horizontal line
<em>m = 0
</em>Parallel, because the slopes are the same.
<em>
</em>23.
Angle 2 is congruent to angle 1 because of the alternate exterior angle theorem.
Angle 1 is congruent to angle 3 because of the vertical angle theorem.
Angle 2 is congruent to angle 3 because of substitution.
Line l is parallel to line m because the corresponding angles are congruent.

What is PA <br> Enter your answer in the box
SSSSS [86.1K]

Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

P is the in-center

⇒PA=PE=PD because they are in-radius of the in-circle

We know that, tangent segments drawn from a point outside the circle are always equal in length

⇒DK=EK=7.2

In right triangle PKE,

using Pythagoras' Theorem : PK^{2}=PE^{2}+KE^{2}

⇒PE^{2}=PK^{2}-KE^{2}

⇒PE=\sqrt{PK^{2}-KE^{2} }

⇒PE^{2}=\sqrt{7.8^{2}-7.2^{2}} }

⇒PE=3

Therefore, PA=3
