Mathematics

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

Sedbober [7]

Answer:

The window should be positioned 4 1/8 feet far from each edge of the wall.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since a construction crew is placing a square in a wall for a new window, which is 3 1/8 feet wide, while the wall has a length of 11 3/8 feet, and the crew wants to position the window at the center of the wall, to determine how far from each edge of the wall should the window be positioned, the following calculation must be performed:

1/8 = 0.125

3/8 = 0.375

(11,375 - 3,125) / 2 = X

8.25 / 2 = X

4.125 = X

Therefore, the window should be positioned 4 1/8 feet far from each edge of the wall.
