Sarah competes in a long jump competition.
Her first jump is 4.25 m.
I
Her best jump is 12% more than this.
However, her best jump is 15% lower than the winning jump.
Work out the length of the winning jump.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

4.046 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2
How to find Sarah’s best jump:
First you multiply 4.25 by 12% (or 0.12) to get 0.51 meters.
4.25 + 0.51 = 4.76 meters. So her best jump is 4.76 meters.
How to find the winning jump:
Since her best jump is 15% less than the winning jump, it must be 85% of the winning jump (as in 85 is 85% of 100).
So you divide 4.76 by 85% (or 0.85) which equals 5.6 meters.
So, the winning jump was 5.6 meters.


Hope this helps!

A rectangular sandbox will be constructed for the students at an elementary school. The sandbox will be filled to the top of the sandbox with sand. If each bag of sand contains 2.6 cubic feet of sand, how many bags of sand will need to be purchased to completely fill the sandbox.

Answers

Answer:

Approximately 19 bags of sand will be required.

Step-by-step explanation:

The statement misses the drawing of the sandbox which I have attached here. We can find the dimensions mentioned in the picture.

Length of box = 6.5 feet

Width of box = 5 ft

Height of box = 1.5 ft

Calculating the volume = V = length x width x height = 6.5 x 5 x 1.5 = 48.75 cubic ft

As given in the question, one sand bag has 2.6 cubic ft of sand

No of bags required = 48.75 / 2.6 = 18.75

A rectangular swimming pool is 6 it deep. One side of the pool is 3.5 times longer than the other. The amount of water needed to fill the swimming pool is
1344 cubic feet. Find the dimensions of the pool.

Answers

Answer:

8 feet by 28 feet by 6 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

So volume is length times width times height

It tells us that the volume is 1344 cubic feet (the water used to fill it)

And it also tells us that the height/depth (which are the same thing in this case) is 6ft

All we need now are length and width

We know that one of the sides is 3.5 times the other one. So we can just say length is x and width is 3.5x

So plugging that in, the equation becomes

[tex]3.5x*x*6=1344[/tex]

3.5 x times x is just 3.5x squared so

[tex]3.5x^2*6=1344[/tex]

       divide both sides by 6

[tex]3.5x^2=244[/tex]

       divide by 3.5

[tex]x^2 =64[/tex]

        [tex]x=\sqrt{64}[/tex]

x = 8

So that means the one side is 8 feet long and the other side is 3.5 times that, which is 28 feet long.

So the dimensions of the pool are 8 feet by 28 feet by 6 feet

One of the legs of a right triangle measures 12 cm and the other leg measures 13 cm find the measure of the hypotenuse if necessary round the nearest 10th

Answers

Answer:

17.7 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

One of the legs of a right triangle measures 12 cm and the other leg measures 13 cm find the measure of the hypotenuse if necessary round the nearest 10th

To find the Hypotenuse of a right angle triangle, we solve using Pythagoras Theorem

Hypotenuse ² = Opposite ² + Adjacent ²

Hypotenuse = √Opposite ² + Adjacent ²

Opposite = 12 cm

Adjacent = 13 cm

Hence,

Hypotenuse = √12² + 13²

= √144 + 169

= 17.691806013 cm

Approximately = 17.7 cm

Therefore, the measure of the Hypotenuse is 17.7 cm

Prince Ivan rides Grey Wolf at a constant speed from King's Castle to the Magic Apple Garden in 5 hours. On their return trip to King's Castle, Grey Wolf runs at that original constant speed for the first 36 km. Then he runs the rest of the way 3 km/h faster. What was Grey Wolf's original speed if the return trip took 15 minutes less than the trip from King's Castle to the Magic Apple Garden?

Answers

Answer:

48 and 9

Step-by-step explanation:

36/x + 5x-36/x+3 = 5-0.25

Answer:

9 and 48 km/hr

Step-by-step explanation:

The Formula [tex]S=\frac{D}{T}[/tex] along with its variations are used

Let's say for the initial ride, the speed was x. Because the time was 5 hours, the distance was 5x km. Now for the return. For the first part, the speed remains x but our distance is 36km. So, our time is 36/x hours. For the second part, the speed is x+3 but our distance is 5x-36 (The total minus the distance of the first part.) So, our time is [tex]\frac{5x-36}{x+3}[/tex]. Now we have the equation [tex]\frac{36}{x} + \frac{5x-36}{x+3}=5-\frac{1}{4}[/tex] as our times add up to 5 hours minus 1/4 of and hour. Solving, we get x=9, x=48.

Working together, Daniel and Donnie can clean the llama pen in 45 minutes. On his own, Daniel can clean the pen in an hour. How long does it take Donnie to clean the llama pen on his own?

Answers

Answer:

It takes him 15 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Donnie clean the llama pen in 180 minutes on his own.

What is an expression?

Mathematical expression is defined as the collection of the numbers variables and functions by using operations like addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.

Given that;

Daniel and Donnie can clean the llama pen in 45 minutes.

And, On his own, Daniel can clean the pen in an hour.

Now,

Let time to clean the llama pen in on his own = x minutes.

Since, Daniel and Donnie can clean the llama pen in 45 minutes.

So, In 1 minute, Daniel and Donnie clean the pen = 1/45

And, In 1 minute Daniel to work = 1/60

Thus, We can formulate;

1/x + 1/60 = 1/45

Solve for x as;

(60 + x) / 60x = 1/45

60 + x = 60x / 45

60 + x = 4x/3

180 + 3x = 4x

180 = 4x - 3x

180 = x

Thus, Donnie clean the llama pen in 180 minutes on his own.
