In 1900, there was an Olympic underwater swimming event. The score was calculated by giving one point for each second the swimme

r stayed under water and two points for each meter that the swimmer traveled. Charles de Vendeville from France earned a gold medal by staying under water 68.4 seconds while traveling 60.2 meters. How many points did Charles de Vendeville earn to place first? Express the answer to the nearest tenth of a point.

The points for the swimming event are calculated as :one point for each second the swimmer stayed under water and two points for each meter that the swimmer traveled.

Charles de Vendeville stayed under water for 68.4 seconds.

Points earned for staying under water = 68.4 (1)= 68.4

Vendeville from France travelled 60.2 meters

Points earned for traveling 60.2 meters = 60.2(2)= 120.4

Total points earned = 68.4+120.4=188.8

Identify the explicit function for the sequence in the table.
juin [17]
14 - 9 = 5
19 - 14 = 5
24 - 19 = 5
29 - 24 = 5

It is an arithmetic sequence with differences, b = 5 and a = 9
a(n) = a + b(n - 1)
a(n) = 9 + 5(n - 1)

The answer is B

Which statement and explanation about the product of a 3-digit number and a 2-digit number is correct?
Murrr4er [49]
The answer is D- 999*99 is 98,901 (which is 5 digits. It cannot go higher), but 100*10 is 1,000, so it can go lower.

Which sets of numbers contain whole numbers? Check all that apply. Negative 2 and StartFraction 5 Over 6 EndFraction, negative 5
Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

The whole numbers are 0 and 79.

Step-by-step explanation:

The numbers provided are as follows:

-2\frac{5}{6},\ -54,\ -4,\ -57,\ -89,\ 79,\ \frac{6}{9},\ \\\\-19\frac{2}{3},\ \frac{2}{4},\ 0,\ \frac{2}{7},\ -3,\ -2, -7,\ -8,\ \\\\\frac{1}{8},\ -\frac{4}{8},\ 1\frac{3}{8},\ -\frac{7}{8}

Whole numbers are a set of natural positive numbers and 0. This set basically consists of counting discrete numbers.

Such as: 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5....

From the provided set of numbers the whole numbers are:

S = {79 and 0}

Thus, the whole numbers are 0 and 79.

paloma eats 2/8 of an apple in the morning and 3/8 more in the afternoon. how much of an apple did she eat in total
marishachu [46]

Step-by-step explanation:

in this problem, we are solving for the amount of apple that Paloma eats

1. she ate 2/8 of a complete apple -hence the will be a remainder, we will find  

  that remainder

2. she also ate 3/8 of the remainder for lunch

3. we then proceed to calculate all apple she ate in total

1. \frac{2}{8} *1= \frac{1}{4} \\\\1-\frac{1}{4}= \frac{4-1}{4}  = \frac{3}{4}

2 she ate 3/8 of the remaining 3/4 apple

1. \frac{3}{8} *\frac{3}{4} = \frac{9}{32}

3. in  total she ate 1/4+ 9/32

\frac{1}{4} +\frac{9}{32} = \frac{8+9}{32} = \frac{17}{32}

In this activity, you'll calculate a probability and use it to predict the result of repeating a simple chance-based trial many
kompoz [17]
1) The outcomes for rolling two dice, the sample space, is as follows:
(1, 1), (1, 2), (1, 3), (1, 4), (1, 5), (1, 6)
(2, 1), (2, 2), (2, 3), (2, 4), (2, 5), (2, 6)
(3, 1), (3, 2), (3, 3), (3, 4), (3, 5), (3, 6)
(4, 1), (4, 2), (4, 3), (4, 4), (4, 5), (4, 6)
(5, 1), (5, 2), (5, 3), (5, 4), (5, 5), (5, 6)
(6, 1), (6, 2), (6, 3), (6, 4), (6, 5), (6, 6)
There are 36 outcomes in the sample space.
2)  The ways to roll an odd sum when rolling two dice are:
(1, 2), (1, 4), (1, 6), (2, 1), (2, 3), (2, 5), (3, 2), (3, 4), (3, 6), (4, 1), (4, 3), (4, 5), (5, 2), (5, 4), (5, 6), (6, 1), (6, 3), (6, 5).  There are 18 outcomes in this event.
3)  The probability of rolling an odd sum is 18/36 = 1/2 = 0.5
