During training, an athlete ran 250m/min. But then on the day of the race, he increased his average speed to 300m/min and finished the race one miute faster than he had during training. What distance was the race?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

6 m

Step-by-step explanation:

First I want you to understand that distance = speed × time.Consider:

speed= 250. 300.

minutes= let it be x. x-1

distance= 250× x. 300(x-1)

=250x. 300x-300

Since distance remains the same ,250x=300x-300

hence. -50x=-300.

x= 6

Answer 2

The length of the race was 1500 meters.

What is Speed?

Speed is defined as the rate of change of distance travelled per unit time.

Given is an athlete who ran at a speed of 250 m/min. However, on the day of the race, he increased his average speed to 300 m/min and finished the race one minute faster than he had during training.

Assume that the length of the race is (x) meters. Suppose that the runner takes (t) minutes to to complete the race in training. Therefore, we can write -

x = 250t

During the race -

x = 300(t - 1)

Equating both, we get -

250t = 300(t - 1)

250t = 300t - 300

300 = 50t

t = 6 min

Then, the length of the race will be -  

x = 250 x 6 = 1500 meters

Therefore, the length of the race was 1500 meters.

NO. Your friend is incorrect because the solution to the system of equations on the graph is: (4, 3).

How to Determine the Solution to a System of Linear Equations?

The solution to a system of linear equations is the coordinates of the point where the two lines of the linear equations intersect.

The x-coordinate and the y-coordinate of this point lie on each of the lines of the linear equations. This means that, both values of x and y are a solution to each of the linear equation given.

Therefore, the solution to a system of linear equations is usually represented as (x, y) and not just as a single value of x.

The system of linear equations that is graphed above shows that both lines intersect at (4, 3), that is, when x = 4, the value of y = 3.

However, your friend only stated the value of x = 4, as the solution to the system of linear equations that is represented on the graph.

What are angles?

An angle is a figure in Euclidean geometry made up of two rays that share a terminal and are referred to as the angle's sides and vertices, respectively. Angles created when two rays are in the plane where the rays are located. The intersection of two planes also creates angles. We refer to these as dihedral angles.

Given Data

a = 2x + 3y

b = 4x - y

c = 3x + 2y

∠b = 100° ( corresponding angle)

4x - y = 100

4x - 100 = y

∠a = ∠b ( alternate angle)

2x + 3y = 4x - y

Equating values of y

2x + 3(4x - 100) = 4x - 4x + 100

2x + 12x - 300 = 100

Is there a rigid transformation taking Rectangle A to Rectangle B? Explain how you know.

Answers

No. there is no rigid transformation taking Rectangle A to Rectangle B. See the explanation below.

Further explanation

The type of transformation that is taking place in the attached image from Rectangle A to Rectangle B is a non-rigid transformation. This is is because A rigid transformation (or isometry) is a transformation that DOES NOT change the size or shape of a geometric figure.

As it is easily observed, rectangle A is no longer the same shape and size as B. This means that the change or transformation that has occurred is non-rigid.

It is to be noted that dilation is a transformation that keeps the figure's geometry and orientation but alters its size. A dilation's scale factor is the factor by which each linear measure of the figure (such as a side length) is multiplied.

Find the total weight of the twelve people on the elevator. b. A thirteenth person wants to get on the elevator. Write and solve an inequality that represents the weight w that person can be without exceeding the elevator’s weight limit.

Answers

The weight of the twelve people on the elevator is 1,825 pounds.

And the weight of the thirteen person is given by the inequality:

x ≤ 175

How to find the total weight of the people in the elevator?

We have an elevator with 12 people in it, such that the weights of these 12 people are:

175, 140, 135, 155, 170, 190, 125, 160, 150, 150, 130, 145

To find the total weight we just need to add these numbers, we will get:

175 + 140 + 135 + 155 + 170 + 190 + 125 + 160 + 150 + 150 + 130 + 145 = 1,825

So the 12 people in the elevator have a total weight of 1,825 pounds.

Now, the weight limit is 2,000 pounds.

So if we define x as te weight of the 13 th person, we can write the inequality:

1,825 + x ≤ 2,000

x ≤ 2,000 - 1,825

x ≤ 175

So the person can weight at mos 175 pounds.

Answers

If a cave explorer is at an elevation of −32 feet and the explorer starts moving at a rate of −6 feet per minute. it will take, 9 in minutes for the explorer to reach an elevation deeper than −140 feet.

Elevation of feet =  −32 feet.

Feet per minute =  −6 feet per minute

Elevation deeper than  feet = −140 feet

Let x  represent the time for reach the desired height

Inequality

-32 - 6x = ≤ -140

Substract 32 from both side

12x ≤ 140 -32

Answers

The price of an adult ticket and a student ticket is $14 and $8, respectively.

Using algebraic expression and equation, we can express each statement and determine the price of each ticket.

Let x = the price of an adult ticket

y = the price of a student ticket

If on the first day of ticket sales, the school sold 3 student tickets and 1 adult ticket for a total of $38, then we can express this as:

3y + x = 38     (equation 1)

If the school took in $52 on the second day by selling 3 student tickets and 2 adult tickets, then we can express this as:

3y + 2x = 52     (equation 2)

3y + 2x = 52     (equation 2)

-(3y + x = 38)    (equation 1)

x = 14

Substitute the value of x in any of the two equations.

3y + x = 38     (equation 1)

3y + 14 = 38

3y = 38 - 14

3y = 24

y = 8

What is probability?

The proportion of favourable outcomes to all possible outcomes of an event is known as the probability. The number of positive outcomes for an experiment with 'n' possible outcomes can be represented by the symbol x. The probability of an event can be determined using the following formula.

To find how many different ways can a group of four people be selected from this group of 16, we will implement the combination formula.

[tex]^n C_r=\frac{n !}{r ! (n-r) !}[/tex]

Where,

nCr = number of combinations

n = total number of objects in the set

r = number of choosing objects from the set

Here, n = 16 and r = 4, substituting the values we get

[tex]^{16} C_4=\frac{16 !}{4 ! (16-4) !}[/tex]

[tex]^{16} C_4 =[/tex] 1820

Hence, in 1820  different ways a group of four people can be selected from this group of 16.

To find how many ways can four women be chosen from the group of 7 women we will implement the combination formula.

Here, n = 7 women and r  = 4 women, substituting the values we get

[tex]^7 C_4=\frac{7 !}{4 ! (7-4) !}[/tex]

Thus, in 35 ways four women can be chosen from the group of 7 women.

The probability that all women will be chosen to attend the conference is
