At what meter mark will Ario be when Miguel starts the race? Round to the nearest tenth.

Miguel and his brother Ario are both standing 3 meters from one side of a 25-meter pool when they decide to race. Miguel offers Ario a head start. Miguel says he will start when the ratio of Ario’s completed meters to Ario’s remaining meters is 1:4.

4.4 meters

7.4 meters

17.6 meters

20.6 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

I will rearrange your question:

Miguel and his brother Ario are both standing 3 meters from one side of a 25-meter pool when they decide to race. Miguel offers Ario a head start. Miguel says he will start when the ratio of Ario's completed meters to Ario's remaining meters is 1:4. How many meters will Ario swim before Miguel starts the race

Case 1

Race =25  meter

Ario's completed meters to Ario's remaining meters is 1:4

Completed meter = 1/(1+4)  * 25  = 5 meter

Ario swim before Miguel starts the race = 5 m

Case 2

Total Race = 3 + 25 = 28 m

Ario's completed meters to Ario's remaining meters is 1:4

Completed meter = 1/(1+4)  * 28  = 5.6 meter

Ario's Swim = 5.6 - 3 = 2.6 m

Ario swim before Miguel starts the race = 2.6 m

7.4 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

it was right on edge

0.16 or 16%

step-by-step explanation:

lets take a coin for example.

if you toss it twice, it has a 1/4 chance of landing on heads both times because 1/2 * 1/2 is 1/4.

with the cards, the chance of picking dog is 0.4. having two people pick one is like picking a card twice in a row. so 0.4 * 0.4 is 0.16, or 16%

won't that be plagrisim thought?
