Rebecca went swimming yesterday. after a while she had covered one fifth of her intended distance. after swimming six more lengths of the pool, she had covered one quarter of her intended distance. how many lengths of the pool did she intend to complete?
a. 40
b. 72
c. 80
d. 100
e. 120

Option E.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the intended length of Rebecca's swimming is = x units

and we assume the length of the pool = l units

Now it is given in the question that " She covers one fifth of her intended distance "

That means distance covered =

" After swimming six more lengths of the pool she had covered one quarter of her intended distance"

So

x = 20×(6l)

x = 120l

Therefore, Rebecca has to complete 120 lengths of the pool.

Option E is the answer.

the formula for the equation of a circle is (x – h)2+ (y – k)2 = r2, where (h, k) represents the coordinates of the center of the circle, and r represents the radius of the circle. if a circle is tangent to the x-axis at (3,0), this means it touches the x-axis at that point.

actually what is a question i don't understand
