Surya is competing in a triathlon that includes swimming, bicycling and running. For the first two segments of the race, Surya swam at an average rate of 4 kilometers per hour and bicycled at an average rate of 40 kilometers per hour. It took 81.75 minutes for Surya to swim and cycle a combined total of 43.29 kilometers, completing the first two segments of the race. How long, in minutes, did it take him to complete the swimming portion of the race? Express your answer to the nearest hundredth.

If an athlete who completes this triathlon swims, bicycles and runs a combined total of 52.95 kilometers, the distance the athlete swam is what percent of the total race distance? Express your answer as a percent to the nearest hundredth.

At what average rate, in kilometers per hour, must Surya run the third, and final, portion of the race if he wishes to complete the entire race in no more than 140 minutes? Express your answer to the nearest hundredth

Step-by-step explanation:

Let be the distance Surya swam and be the distance he bicycled. We know that   = 43.29 km.

Now let and be the time, in hours, it took Surya to complete the swimming and bicycling portions of  the race, respectively.

That means = 81.75/60 = 1.3625 hours, and = 1.3625 –  

Using the  distance formula, we have = 4 and = 40

= 40(1.3625 – )

= 54.5 – 40

Substituting these  expressions for  and  in our first equation yields 4 + 54.5 – 40 = 43.29.

Solving for  we see that  - 36 = - 11.21, meaning it took Surya = 0.31138(Bar) hours to complete the swimming portion of the race.

This is equivalent to 0.31138(Bar)(60) = 18.683(Bar)≈ 18.68 minutes.

(n^3 - n)

= n(n-1)(n+1)

since it is divisible by 3 and 2 ,because it is a multiple 3 consecutive number

if, n-1 is odd then n+1 is also odd, then it is a multiple of 9

but if, n-1 is even then n+1 is also even, then it is a multiple of 4

so, largest multiple = max(9*2, 4*3) = max(18, 12) = 18
