Stanley runs, swims, and bikes every day. During these workouts, he runs at 9 mph, bikes at 16 mph, swims at 2.5 mph. Yesterday, he ran for half an hour longer than he swan, and his biking time was twice his running time. How long did Stanley run, swim, and bike yesterday if the total distance he covered was 64 miles. What distance did Stanley cover while swimming?

  2.5 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

The relation between time, speed, and distance is ...

  distance = speed × time

We can define t to be Stanley's swimming time. Then t+0.5 was his running time, and 2(t+0.5) was his biking time. His total distance covered is ...

  64 = 9(t +0.5) +16(2(t +0.5)) +2.5(t)

  64 = 43.5t +20.5 . . . . . . . simplify

  43.5 = 43.5t . . . . . . . . . subtract 20.5

  t = 1 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by the coefficient of t

Stanley swam for 1 hour, so the distance he covered while swimming was ...

  (2.5 mi/h)(1 h) = 2.5 mi

Stanley covered 2.5 miles while swimming.

Additional comment

Stanley ran for 1.5 hours, covering 9×1.5 = 13.5 miles. He biked for 3 hours, covering 16×3 = 48 miles. His total distance was 2.5 +13.5 +48 = 64 miles, as given.

answer: howdy

step-by-step explanation:

c

step-by-step explanation:

there is vertical asymptote at x = 2 and x = 0

vertical asymptote occurs at the points where the denominator is 0. so we can say that

x = 2 occurs when there is a factor (x-2) in the denominator, and

x = 0 occurs when there is a factor "x" in the denominator

thus, the denominator of the equation would have "x * (x-2)", this is option c only. that's the correct answer.
