Let the distance of the first part of the race be x, and that of the second part, 15 - x, then
x/8 + (15 - x)/20 = 1.125
5x + 2(15 - x) = 40 x 1.125
5x + 30 - 2x = 45
3x = 45 - 30 = 15
x = 15/3 = 5
Therefore, the distance of the first part of the race is 5 miles and the time is 5/8 = 0.625 hours or 37.5 minutes
The distance of the second part of the race is 15 - 5 = 10 miles and the time is 1.125 - 0.625 = 0.5 hours or 30 minutes.
Answer:
A is the answer.
Step-by-step explanation:
A fraction plus a fraction is equal to a fraction. An irrational number cannot be expressed as a fraction.
0.3333333 even though it looks like an irrational number it is actually: 1/3
3/5 is already a fraction so adding it with another fraction will NOT equal an irrational number (decimal)
-0.75 is equal to -3/4 (75/100 => 3/4). Same thing that applies above.
However, Pi cannot be expressed as a fraction exactly. You can round up like 3.14. However it is not the full number. So 3.141592654....+(3/4) is not going to add up perfectly into a fraction.
In short, a fraction is a rational number. Rational + Rational = Rational. Irrational + Rational = Irrational.
Answer:
The answer is C) y - 2 = -5/7(x - 6)
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we have the slope (-5/7) and a point (6, 2), we can just input those in for m and (x1, y1) in point-slope form.
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
y - 2 = -5/7(x - 6)
$4 / 8 = 50 cents per pen
.5 * 5 = 2.50
.5 * 3 = 1.50
Ivan pays $2.50 and Jeff pays $1.50
Okay add 78 and 66. Then add 96 and 108. It should be 144 by 204. I know math is hard, but when you work at it you can do amazing things! I hope that helps you.
