Two turtles race. The speed of the first is 4 1/ 2 inches per minute and the speed of the other is 5 inches per minute How far apart the be in 3 minutes 5 minutes? 10 minutes?​

(a) 1.5 inches

(b) 2.5 inches

(c) 5 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

speed of first turtle = 4 1/2 inches per  minute = 9/2 inches per minute

speed of the second turtle = 5inches per minute

distance = speed x time

(a) Distance traveled by first turtle in 3 minutes

s = 9/2 x 3 = 13.5 inches

distance traveled by second turtle in 3 minutes

s' = 5 x 3 = 15 inches

So, the gap is

s'- s = 15 - 13.5 = 1.5 inches

(b) Distance traveled by first turtle in 5 minutes

s = 9/2 x 5 = 22.5 inches

distance traveled by second turtle in 5 minutes

s' = 5 x 5 = 25 inches

So, the gap is

s'- s = 25 - 22.5 = 2.5 inches

(c) Distance traveled by first turtle in 10 minutes

s = 9/2 x 10 = 45 inches

distance traveled by second turtle in 10 minutes

s' = 5 x 10 = 50 inches

So, the gap is

s'- s = 50 - 45 = 5 inches

22 and 22

step-by-step explanation:

10 plus 12 equals 22.

12 plus 10 also equals 22 because regardless of what order they're in, they're gonna equal the same thing.

g = (2, 2)

step-by-step explanation:

given the ratio is 1 : 1 then f is the midpoint of eg

let the coordinates of g = (x, y)

using the midpoint formula

(0 + x) = 1 ( multiply both sides by 2 )

0 + x = 2 ⇒ x = 2

similarly

(4 + y) = 3 ( multiply both sides by 2 )

4 + y = 6 ( subtract 4 from both sides )

y = 2

coordinates of g = (2, 2)
