Maren walks 3/5 miles in 24 minutes at a steady pace. How long does it take her to walk 2 miles.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: It would take Maren 80 minutes, or 1 hr and 20 min. Just divide the 24 minutes by the 3 in the numerator, then find out how many 1/5's it takes to get 2 and multiply that by what you got as your quotient

Answer 2

Answer: With this, you have to set up a proportion. So find the decimal of 3/5 and set that equal to 24.
So this is what your proportion should look like: .6/24=x/2
Now you find how much she walks in one minute, so you divide .6 by 24 which is .025 of a mile. So now it will be .025 mpm. So now you multiply that by two.

She walks .05 miles in two minutes.

What is the solution to y = 2x + 3 for the replacement set x = {1.3}?

Answers

Simple. Substitue "1.3" for x in the given equation y = 2x + 3.

2x + 3 = y
2 * 1.3 + 3 = y
2.6 + 3 = y
5.6 = y

The solution to the equation with the replacement set {1.3} for x is {5.6} = y.
I hope you understand how to solve the equation! :)

ricky found a beetle that has a body one fourth the length of the fraction strips used in problem 1.2. how many beetle. how many beetle bodies placed end to end would have a total length equal to the length of a fraction strip. ricky drew 13 paper beetle bodies end to end each the same length as the one found. how many fraction strips long is ricky line of beetle bodies.

Answers

1/4 of 1/4

= 1/8

13 x 1/8

= 13/1 x 1/8

= 1 5/8

therefore there are 1 and 5/8 in the line of rickys fraction strips.

on a fraction strip line this is 13/8

Basketball shoes are on sale for 22% off. What is the regular price if the sale price is $42 ??

Answers

so 22% off means that the shoes cost 100-22=78%

the shoes cost $42 so
42=78%

we want to find how much is 100% so we multiply 42/78 by 100/x where x is the cost since the same fraction inverted and multiplied by itself is = to 1. (if you don't get this feel free to message me)

so 4200/78x
we divide this on a calculator and get $53.85

By multiplying the discounted price by the percent which is 22% or .22, and then adding it to the discounted price the regular price will be known.
42*.22=9.24+42= Regular price
The regular price is $51.24
