Answer:

Option B.

Step-by-step explanation:

A bicyclist rides the same number of miles in one minute.

Ratio table is given as

Number of minutes    Distances (miles)

       10                                   2.5

        16                                   4

        x                                    7.5

       48                                  12

We have to find the number of minutes taken by a biker to bike 7.5 miles

So the ratio between minutes to the distance biked will be = \frac{10}{2.5}=4:1

Now this ratio will be similar to the ratio = \frac{x}{7.5}=x:7.5

Now \frac{4}{1}=\frac{x}{7.5}

x = 7.5×4 = 30 minutes

Therefore, Option B will be the answer.

Joey is measuring the amount of time it takes for a frisbee to fly through the air he uses a stopwatch to time it and find that
marissa [1.9K]

Answer:percent error in Joey's measurement to the nearest 10th of a percent =- 4.6%

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1

Time as recorded by the stopwatch = 4.82 seconds

Real Time it takes for a Frisbee to fly through the air =5.05 seconds

percent error =   Measured value – True Value /True value  x 100.

= 4.82 - 5.05 / 5.05 x 100

=-0.23/5.05

=-0.0455 x 100

=4.5544%

Rounding to nearest 10th of a percent = - 4.6%

forsale [732]

Let D be dogs and C be cats

<em>dogs, d, is initially five less than twice the number of cats, c</em>

D + 5 = 2C

<em>If she decides to add three more of each, the ratio  of cats to dogs will be</em>

D + 8 = 2C + 3

<em>Could Bea's Pet Shop initially have 15 cats and 20 dogs?</em>

Simply plug in the numbers

20 + 5 = 2(15)

This is clearly not true: 25 does not equal 30
