Ana can swim at a rate of 3/8 mile in 1/3 hour how many minutes would it take her to swim 1 mile at this rate round your answer

to the nearest Minute

ANSWER: 53 minutes


First, find what 1/3 of an hour equals in minutes. 20 minutes = 1/3 hour

Second, the goal is to find how many minutes it takes Ana to swim 1 mile, so you want to find how long it takes Ana to swim 1/8 of a mile.
3/8 mile = 20 minutes
20/3 = 6.666... so 1/8 mile = 6.666... minutes

Third, multiply the amount of time it takes to swim 1/8 mile by 8.
6.666 x 8 = 53.328 ⬅️ round to the nearest minute = 53 minutes

Find a line that lies entirely in the set defined by the equation x2 + y2 − z2 = 1.
RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

x=1\,,\,y=t\,,\,z=t

Step-by-step explanation:

A line is a one-dimensional figure that has no thickness and extends infinitely in both directions.

A line segment is a line that has two end-points and a ray is a line that has one end-point.

Given equation is x^2+y^2-z^2=1

To find : a line that lies entirely in the set defined by the given equation.

Solution:

Take x=1\,,\,y=t\,,\,z=t

Check:

L.H.S=1^2+t^2-t^2=1+0=1=R.H.S

Therefore, x=1\,,\,y=t\,,\,z=t satisfy the given equation.

klemol [59]
Answer: 15.7 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the time in the beginning (in minutes).

Given: The track team is trying to reduce their time for a relay race.

First they reduce their time by 2.1 minutes.

Then they are able to reduce that time by 10

If their final time is 3.96 minutes, then

x-t1-t2= 3.6
x= 3.6+ t1+ t2
x= 3.6+ 2.1+ 10
x= 15.7

Hence, their beginning time was 15.7 minutes.

What type of polygon would a slice of a hexahedron at a vertex create? Explain. What type of polygon would a slice of an icosahe
harina [27]

Answer:

  • hexahedron: triangle or quadrilateral or pentagon
  • icosahedron: quadrilateral or pentagon

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Hexahedron</u>

A hexahedron has 6 faces. A <em>regular</em> hexahedron is a cube. 3 square faces meet at each vertex.

If the hexahedron is not regular, depending on how those faces are arranged, a slice near a vertex may intersect 3, 4, or 5 faces. The first attachment shows 3- and 4-edges meeting at a vertex. If those two vertices were merged, then there would be 5 edges meeting at the vertex of the resulting pentagonal pyramid.

A slice near a vertex may create a triangle, quadrilateral, or pentagon.

<u>Icosahedron</u>

An icosahedron has 20 faces. The faces of a <em>regular</em> icosahedron are all equilateral triangles. 5 triangles meet at each vertex.

If the icosahedron is not regular, depending on how the faces are arranged, a slice near the vertex may intersect from 3 to 19 faces.

A slice near a vertex may create a polygon of 3 to 19 sides..

Ramona's backyard is fenced and represented by parallelogram YARD with measures in meters. She installed a 12-meters fence to se
Alisiya [41]
The fencing line x is the height of a rectangle triangle of base = y, hypothenuse of 9 m, so we use Pythagoras theorem to solve:

hyp^2 = height^2 + base^2
9^2 = x^2 + y^2
x^2 = 81 - y^2


we can see that x is also the height of another rectangle triangle of base = 15 - y, hypothenuse of 12 m, so we use Pythagoras theorem to solve:
hyp^2 = height^2 + base^2
12^2 = x^2 + (15 - y)^2

lets expand:
144 = x^2 + 225 - 30y + y^2

substitute x^2 from the first equation in the last:
144 = 81 - y^2 + 225 - 30y + y^2
144 = 81 + 225 - 30y
30y = -144 + 81 + 225
y = 5.4 m

substitute in the fence equation:
x^2 = 81 - y^2
x^2 = 81 - 5.4^2
x = 7.2 m that is the length of the fence

Jenna mixed two shades of purple paint. For Purple People Eater, she used 3 pints of red paint for every 5 pints of blue paint.
emmasim [6.3K]

Answer:

\frac{12}{35}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

→ For Purple People Eater, she used 3 pints of red paint for every 5 pints of blue paint.

i.e, The ratio of red paint to blue paint is 3:5

→ For Purple Majesty, she used a blue to red paint ratio of 7 to 4.

i.e, The ratio of red paint to blue paint is 4:7

To find :

1) Compare the ratios of red paint to blue paint.

\frac{3}{5}\times \frac{4}{7}=\frac{12}{35}

2) The ratio for Purple People Eater can be expressed in fraction form as :

=\frac{3}{5}

3) The ratio for Purple Majesty can be expressed in fraction form as :

=\frac{7}{4}

4) To compare these fractions, rewrite them with a common denominator

For common denominator

Multiply numerator and denominator by 4 in \frac{3}{5}

\Rightarrow\frac{3\times 4}{5\times4}=\frac{12}{20}

Multiply numerator and denominator by 5 in \frac{7}{4}

\Rightarrow\frac{7\times 5}{5\times4}=\frac{35}{20}

Common denominator is 20
