In a triathlon, Kailee swam for 1 hour, biked for 1.75 hours, and ran for 1 hour. Her average biking speed was 2 times her average running speed, and her average running speed was 8 times her average swimming speed. The total distance of the triathlon was 55.5 kilometers. Write an equation and solve it to find Kailee’s average swimming speed in kilometers per hour.
The problem tells you to make a sketch, a table, and equation but I only want an equation please. No answer either.
Answer:
Swimming speed, S = 1.50 km/hr
Step-by-step explanation:
Let Kailee's running speed be R
Let Kailee's biking speed be B
Let Kailee's swimming speed be S
Given the following data;
Time for swimming = 1 hour.
Time for biking = 1.75 hour.
Time for running = 1 hour.
Total distance = 55.5km
Translating the word problem into an algebraic equation, we have;
Biking speed = 2*8S = 16S
Running speed = 8S
We know that the distance covered by an object or body is given by the formula;
[tex] Distance = speed * time[/tex]
Now we would find the distance covered in each activity (biking, running and swimming).
For biking;
[tex] Distance, D_{1} = 1.75*16S [/tex]
Distance, [tex] D_{1} [/tex] = 28S
For running;
[tex] Distance, D_{2} = 1*8S[/tex]
Distance, [tex] D_{2} [/tex] = 8S
For swimming;
[tex] Distance, D_{3} = 1*S[/tex]
Distance, [tex] D_{3} [/tex] = S
The equation for the total distance covered in the triathlon is given by;
Total distance = sum of all distances covered
[tex] Total distance = D_{1} + D_{2} + D_{3} [/tex]
Substituting into the equation, we have;
[tex] 55.5 = 28S + 8S + S[/tex]
[tex] 55.5 = 37S[/tex]
[tex] S = \frac {55.5}{37} [/tex]
S = 1.50 km/hr
Therefore, Kailee’s average swimming speed is 1.50 kilometers per hour.

Pls factorise x²-7x+12
Step-by-step explanation: The first thing you're going to probably
try to do here is to factor out a greatest common factor.
The problem is, there is no factor that is in common
to all three of these terms so you may think it's unfactorable.
However, this trinomial is in a special form.
We have an x squared term, an x term, and a constant term.
When a trinomial is in this form, it can be
factored as the product of two binomials.
So start by setting up two sets of parentheses.
Inside each set, we will have the two terms that compose each binomial.
So we have ( )( ).
The first term is a factor of the x² term, x · x.
For the second term, we need factors of 12 that add to -7.
Since the middle term is negative, we use the negative factors of 12.
Notice that -4 and -3 add to -7 and multiply to be 12.
So our answer is (x - 4)(x - 3).
Determine the value of X.
Answer:
25
Step-by-step explanation:
8x-20=180
8x=200
x=25

have $110 saved. How much money have they each saved individually?
Step-by-step explanation:
3x + 4 + 7x + 16 = 110
10x = 90
x = 9
therefore, Sam = $31 and Tessa = $79

10x+20=110
10x=110-20
10x=90
x=9
Money Sam saved
=3(9)+4
=27+4
=31
Money Tessa saved

The following table shows the salary of 7 people in an office last year.
Name Income
Andy £13500
Bevan £27500
Cheryl £13750
Deva £79000
Elliott £19250
Frankie £27500
Grace £15000
a) Work out the mean income to 2 DP.
b) Deva was given a large bonus for 30 years service.
Excluding Deva's income, what was the mean income for the remaining 6 workers to 2 DP?
Answer:
a. Mean = £27928.57
b. Mean without Deva's income = £19416.67
Step-by-step explanation:
The mean is calculated by dividing the sum of values by number of values. Given 7 values will be used to calculate mean.
So,
Number of values = n = 7
Now,
[tex]Mean = \frac{Sum}{No.\ of\ values}\\=\frac{13500+27500+13750+79000+19250+27500+15000}{7}\\=\frac{195500}{7}\\=27928.5714..[/tex]
Rounding off to two decimal places
Mean income = £27928.57
Now we have to calculate mean without Deva's income so the number of values will be 6 and the sum will be:
[tex]Sum = 195500-79000 = 116500[/tex]
The mean without Deva's income is:
[tex]Mean = \frac{116500}{6} = 19416.6666..[/tex]
Rounding off to 2 DP
Mean = £19416.67
Hence,
a. Mean = £27928.57
b. Mean without Deva's income = £19416.67
Find the zeros of the function.

Mrs. Reyes asked 3 girls and 4 boys to help with a project. She had each student make 8 paper airplanes. Drag steps to show how to find the total number of airplanes.
Answer:
56
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Number of girls = 3
Number of boys = 4
Each student makes 8 paper airplanes.
To find:
The total number of airplanes = ?
Solution:
There can be two ways to find the total number of airplanes.
Method 1:
Keep on adding the number of airplanes for each student.
There are a total of 3+4 = 7 number of students.
First student makes = 8 airplanes
Second student makes = 8 airplanes
Third student makes = 8 airplanes
Fourth student makes = 8 airplanes
Fifth student makes = 8 airplanes
Sixth student makes = 8 airplanes
Seventh student makes = 8 airplanes
Total number of airplanes = 8 + 8 + 8 + 8 + 8 + 8 + 8 = 56
Method 2:
Simply multiply number of airplanes each student makes with the number of students.
i.e. 8 [tex]\times[/tex] 7 = 56
