Bob runs 4 laps around a track in 10 minutes. A) How many minutes per lap is that? B) How many laps per minute is that? C) If Bob runs 17 laps at the same rate, how long does it take him?

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, let us solve for Bobs speed

speed= distance/time

given

distance= 4 laps

time= 10 min

speed= 4/10

speed=0.4laps/min

this is the rate at which Bob is running

A) How many minutes per lap is that?

this is given as

=time/distance

=10/4

=2.5 min per lap

B) How many laps per minute is that?

this is given as

=distance/time

=4/10

=0.4lad per min

C) If Bob runs 17 laps at the same rate, how long does it take him?

given that the speed is 0.4 laps per min

and a distance of 17 laps, we want to find time

speed=distance/time

0.4=17/time

time=17/0.4

time=42.5min

i don't even know man. edge inuity be messing with us. i had to ask a question too.

"standard form:

3x2 + 14x − 10 = 0

solutions based on quadratic formula:

x1   = −14 − √ 142 − 4×3×(−10) /   2×3   = −14 − 2 × √ 79 /   6   ≈ −5.296

x2   = −14 + √ 142 − 4×3×(−10) /   2×3   = −14 + 2 × √ 79 /   6   ≈ 0.629
