An athlete runs 5 miles in 25 minutes and then changes their pace to run the next 3 miles in 15 minutes. Overall, what is the average time in minutes it takes the athlete to run 1 mile?

We convert the given word problem into a mathematical expression.

Let the number be x.

Thrice a number = 3x

Twelve less than thrice a number = 3x-12

Thus, the required mathematical expression is 3x-12

we are asked to find the largest value from the options given. To solve this problem, we need to convert all the given values into fraction. Then find the least common denominator for all fractions, which we will use to multiply each fraction and make a comparison.

43÷55=43/55

5/7

0.729=729/1000

73%=73/100

Now, we need to find the least common denominator of 55, 7, 1000, and 100, which is 77000. We multiply each fraction by 77000 as follows:

43/55*77000=60200

5/7*77000=55000

729/1000*77000=56133

73/100*77000=56210

From the calculated values, it can be noted that 43/55 is the greatest value among the given options.

The interconversion of yards to feet utilizes the relationship 1 yard =3 feet. Then, 9 yards to ft becomes

                                        t

There, 9 yards is equal to 27 ft.

to convert fraction to percent, multiply the fraction with 100%. Therefore, the percent equivalent of 3/4 is

3/4*100%=75%

Thus, 3/4is equal to 75%.

We follow the order operations to solve for the unknown value of x.

3(2x+5)=11x+5

Open the bracket on the LHS by multiplying each term by 3

(3*2x)+(3*5)=11x+5

6x+15=11x+5

Subtract 15 from both sides

6x+15-15=11x+5-15

6x=11x-10

Subtract 11x on both sides

6x-11x=11x-11x-10

-5x=-10

Divide both sides by -5

-5x/-5=-10/-5

x= 2

Thus, the value of unknown value of x is 2.

The length of the unknown side of the rectangle can be found by using the Pythagoras theorem. Letting the unknown side to be x, the labelled rectangle becomes: The unknown length of the triangle is about 16.7 feet.

The length of the unknown side of the rectangle can be found by using the Pythagoras theorem. Letting the unknown side to be x, the labelled rectangle becomes:

The unknown length of the triangle is about 16.7 feet.

We usea calculator to find the product of

1.6*0.93=1.488

When solving percent problems, the following words and their meaning becomes handy.

• Is means equals
• Of means multiply
• What means unknown (variable)

If we let x represent the amount of tip the couple want to leave behind, then

So, the couple will leave a tip of $2.84, which is about $3.00

Explanation: We know that 1 L=1000 mL and to change between L and mL we use the following two options

We are needed to find the amount Jacob will be left with after spending and reinvesting the rest using the given information.

Amount Jacob spends=87% of $100=87/100*100=$87

Amount left to invest=$(100-87)=$13

Jacob is left with $13, which she invests and earns a profit of 75%.

Profit earned on invested amount=75% of $13=75/100*13=$9.75

So, Jacob will have $13+$9.75=$22.75
