Jacob and Sophia are in a running club and record how long it takes them to run a 5-kilometer race. Jacob's time was 4 minutes under the average time of the running club. The difference between Jacob's time and Sophia's time is 10 minutes. The possible times of Sophia's run are ____ minutes below the average or ____ minutes above the average.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

14 minutes below or 6 minutes above

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say Sophia's time was 10 minutes WORSE

4 minutes below average- 10 minutes= 14 minutes below average

Let's say Sophia's time was ten minutes BETTER

4 minutes below average + 10 minutes= 6 minutes above average.

Hope this helps!

Answer 2
Answers:

14 minutes below the average

6 minutes above the average

=====================================================

Let A = average running time

Jacob's time was 4 minutes under the average, so his time is A-4 minutes. Whatever A is, subtract off 4, and you'll get Jacob's time.

Sophia and Jacob have a difference of 10 minutes. If J = Jacob's time and S = sophia's time, then S-J = 10 or J-S = 10 depending on who has the larger time.

We can use absolute value to ensure that whatever we pick (S-J or J-S) will be positive. So |S-J| = 10. Recall that absolute value represents distance on a number line. Negative distance isn't possible.

-------------

Let's plug in J = A-4 and solve for S

|S-J| = 10

|S - ( J )| = 10

|S - (A-4)|

|S-A+4| = 10

S-A+4 = 10  or  S-A+4 = -10

S-A = 10-4  or  S-A = -10-4

S-A = 6  or  S-A = -14

S = A+6 or S = A-14

The equation S = A+6 shows Sophia is 6 minutes above the average

The equation S = A-14 shows Sophia is 14 minutes below the average

-------------

Let's pick some number for A that is over 14 minutes. Let's say the average running time is A = 20 minutes.

If A = 20, then Jacob's time is J = A-4 = 20-4 = 16

If the average running time is 20 minutes, then Jacob ran for 16 minutes.

If we subtract 10 from this, then J-10 = 16-10 = 6 is one possible time for Sophia. Notice how this is 14 minutes below the average (20-14 = 6)

If we add 10 to Jacob's time, then J+10 = 16+10 = 26, which is 6 minutes overage the average (20+6 = 26)

This is one numeric example, but you could use any value of A that you want as long as it's larger than 14. The reason A has to be larger than 14 is to ensure that Sophia's lower time value (A-14) is not negative. Having a time of zero is not feasible either.

Answers

Answer: So alexis had $80 And he bought a bunch of binders for $23 So If you do the math you will get: $57 But then he buys pens and pencils for $16 So:

$57 - $16 = $41 And then he buys a new backpack for $37. So : $41 - $37 = $4

You are preparing a case study on the dallas cowboys. You use many methods of data collection in creating the case study. Here is an excerpt: the dallas cowboys were formed in 1960 and have had seven head coaches since then. I surveyed 100 people and one of the questions was, who is your favorite coach of the dallas cowboys? Seventy people said tom landry, fifteen said jimmy johnson, five said bill parcells, and ten answered other. One of those who answered other was my brother. I asked him which coach was his favorite and he said, "barry switzer because he was the last one to win a championship." i knew he was kidding because he had a smirk on his face. The excerpt relays information gathered from questionnaires, interviews, observations, and historical data. Identify the information from the case study that was collected by each of the four methods.

Answers

Answer:

The information that was collected by each of the four methods is;

The participant's favorite coach of the Dallas Cowboys.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each of the four methods listed, the question that stood out was the favorite coach of the Dallas Cowboys among the participants in the study.

Questionnaire: one of the questions was, who is your favorite coach of the Dallas cowboys?

Interview: I asked him which coach was his favorite

Observation: I knew he was kidding because he had a smirk on his face. This observation showed that Barry Switzer was not really his favorite coach.

Historical data:  I asked him which coach was his favorite and he said, "Barry Switzer because he was the last one to win a championship." This historical data shows that the reason why Barry Switzer was chosen as the researcher's favorite coach was that he was the last to win a championship.

Answers

Answer:

this is a system of equations , and it's no surprise that it's tricky for you. these are tricky for anyone.

Step-by-step explanation:

X=adults

Y=children

I only know to make these two equations from experience doing these types of questions.

X+Y=800

7X +5Y=4600

there are a few ways to solve this , i"m just going to multiply the first equatlion by 7 and the subtract  the 2nd  from that whole equation.

7(X +Y=800)

7X +7Y = 5600

-(7X +5Y =4600)

0X +2Y = 1000

Y  = 500   ( 500 children went to the movies )

by inspection  you can probably see that 300 adults had to go too

500 kids

300 parents

also that's 4600 dollars to let those people in

7(300) + 5(500) = 4600

2100 + 2500 = 4600
