Rita goes for a bike ride on a trail by her house. After 15 minutes of riding she sees a mile marker. When she reaches the third mile marker, she realizes that she has been biking for 30 minutes. What is the rate at which she is riding?

Answers

Answer 1

Given:

Rita covered 1 mile in 15 minutes.

She covered 3 miles in 30 minutes.

To find:

The rate at which she is riding.

Solution:

Let y be the number of miles covered in x minutes.

Rita covered 1 mile in 15 minutes. So, the point is (15,1).

She covered 3 miles in 30 minutes. So, the point is (30,3).

Slope of the line:

[tex]m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}[/tex]

[tex]m=\dfrac{3-1}{30-15}[/tex]

[tex]m=\dfrac{2}{15}[/tex]

Therefore, she is riding [tex]\dfrac{2}{15}[/tex] miles per minute.

Amy earned $25 after babysitting for 3 hours. If she always charges the same rate, how much will she make after working for 7 hours?

Answers

Answer:

$58.33

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up a proportion where x is the amount she makes for 7 hours:

[tex]\frac{3}{25}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{7}{x}[/tex]

Cross multiply and solve for x:

3x = 175

x = 58.33

So, after working for 7 hours, she will make $58.33

Answer:

About 60-65$

Step-by-step explanation:

Because every 3 hours she gets $25 and she worked 7 hours so there's 6 in 7 hours so 25+25 is 50 and the other hour would be half of 25 so 12.5 so between 60-65. Im so sorry if its wrong hope it worked tho! <3

5/2 x 3/10 cross multiply

15/20 = 3/4

Answer:

It would be B. 3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

You turn the mixed numbers into improper fractions then you divide by using the reciprocal of the 3 & 1/3. This will leave you into the equation "5/2 * 3/10"

When multiplied, you will get "15/20" which simplifies to "3/4"

A track team has 4 runners on a relay team. If by coincidence each runner takes an average of 45.48 seconds to complete her leg of the relay, what is the total time to run the relay?

Answers

Answer:

181.92 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that,

Time taken by each person in the team = 45.48 seconds

Number of members in the team = 4

It is required to find the total time taken by the team to finish the race.

Thus, the time taken taken = 4 × 45.48 = 181.92 seconds

Hence. the team finished the race in 72.4 seconds.

Find the probability of getting four consecutive aces when four cards are drawn without replacement from a standard deck of 52 playing cards.​

Answers

Answer:

P=0.0000037

P=0.00037%

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability

A standard deck of 52 playing cards has 4 aces.

The probability of getting one of those aces is

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{4}{52}=\frac{1}{13}[/tex]

Now we got an ace, there are 3 more aces out of 51 cards.

The probability of getting one of those aces is

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{3}{51}=\frac{1}{17}[/tex]

Now we have 2 aces out of 50 cards.

The probability of getting one of those aces is

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{2}{50}=\frac{1}{25}[/tex]

Finally, the probability of getting the remaining ace out of the 49 cards is:

[tex]\displaystyle \frac{1}{49}[/tex]

The probability of getting the four consecutive aces is the product of the above-calculated probabilities:

[tex]\displaystyle P= \frac{1}{13}\cdot\frac{1}{17}\cdot\frac{1}{27}\cdot\frac{1}{49}[/tex]

[tex]\displaystyle P= \frac{1}{270,725}[/tex]

P=0.0000037

P=0.00037%

Mr. Moore has 5 1/4 pounds of dry fish food. He will be putting an equal amount of food into 3 containers. How much fish food will be in each container?

Answers

5 and 1/4 can be 5.25 so all you have to do is divide that by 3 and you’ll get 1.75 per container.

If you wanted to keep it as a fraction, 5 and 1/4 would become 21/4 (you do 5 x 4= 20 + 1) and for fractions I always remembered dividing as ‘Keep, Change, Flip’ so you would do 21/4 for keep. Change would be to change the sign from division to multiplication. And for Flip you would flip 3 over 1 (3/1) to 1/3

Putting that all together would be 21/4 x 1/3 which also equals 21/12 by multiplying the denominators and numerators. Then you simplify, dividing it by 3 to equal 7/4 and another simplify to be 1 and 3/4 which is 1.75.

Jordan is mowing lawns to save money for the Camp Rodeo Field Trip. The total cost for the excursions, travel, and food will be $130. Jordan has already saved $50. Which of the following equations represents how much more money Jordan needs to save in order to go on the field trip?

A. x + 50 = 130

B. x - 50 = 130

C. x - 130 = 50

D. x = 50 + 130

Answers

Answer:

X + 50 = 130

Step-by-step explanation:

This is actually a subtraction equation although addition is how you set it up initially. X is the variable. You already have $50. You need $130.

To solve, subtract 50 from each side,

X + 50 - 50 = 130 - 50, and simplify,

X = 120.

Jordan will need $120 more to go to the Camp Rodeo Field Trip.
