The lengths of most older U.S. swimming pools are multiples of yards, generally 25 yards. However, newer pools are 25 or 50 mete

rs long. Suppose an American swimmer is practicing for a 200-meter race. Four lengths of the pool is 200 yards, which is "close" to 200 meters. How close is it? That is, how much shorter is 200 yards than 200 meters? First predict the amount, using only mental math. Explain how you got your prediction and how you did the operations in your head.

natita [175]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

After one year

A=p(1+r/n)^nt

=2000(1+0.03/12)^12*1

=2000(1+0.0025)^12

=2000(1.0025)^12

=2000(1.0304)

=$2060.8

After two-years

A=p(1+r/n)^nt

=2060.8(1+0.03/12)^12*2

=2060.8(1+0.0025)^24

=2060.8(1.0025)^24

=2060.8(1.0618)

=$2188.157

After three years

A=p(1+r/n)^nt

=2188.157(1+0.03/12)^12*3

=2188.157(1+0.0025)^36

=2188.157(1.0025)^36

=2188.157(1.0941)

=$2394.063

five people, each working 8 hours a day, can assemble 400 toys in a five day work week. what is the average number of toys assem
vladimir1956 [14]

The question asks for the rate of toys per hour.

So we shall divide the total toys assembled by the total hours.

Its a five day week.

The number of hours allotted per day are 8.

So total allotted during the week are 8 × 5 = 40 hours.

Number of toys made during the week are 400.

Hence the number of toys assembled per hour per person

= number of toys / number of hours

= 400 / 40

= 10 toys per hour per person.

The average number of toys assembled per hour per person is 10.

Candace leaves her house and starts jogging at a pace of 480 feet per minute. Five minutes later, her brother runs after her at
Elenna [48]

Answer:

The answer to your question is time = 20 min

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

Candace = 480 ft/min

time = 5 min

Brother = 660 ft/min

Process

1.- Calculate the distance traveled by Candace in 5 min

    distance = speed xtime

                   = 480 x 5

                   = 2400 ft

2.- Write the equations to help solve the problem

Candace    distance = 2400 + 480t

Brother      distance = 600t

3.- Solve by equality

                  2400 + 480t = 600t

                  2400 = 600t - 480t

                  2400 = 120t

                   t = 2400/120

                   t = 20 min

4.- I will solve the equation given

                   480t = 660(t - 112112)

                   480t - 660t = -112112

                            -120t = -112112

                                   t = -112112/-120

                                   t = 934 h   I think there is a mistake in the formula you

                                                      wrote.
