The 10,000-meter long-distance running event in the summer Olympics is approximately 6.2 miles. Which equation could be used to determine the time, t, it takes to run 10,000 meters as a function of the average speed, s, of the runner where t is in minutes and s in miles per minute?

The equation that could be used to determine the time, t, it takes to run 10,000 meters as a function of the average speed, s, of the runner where t is in minutes and s in miles per minute is t = 6.2/s miles/minute

Average speed is defined as the rate of change in distance of a body. Mathematically;

Given the distance of the runner in miles to be;

To express t in terms of the average speed s and distance of 6.2miles, we will substitute the values into the formula;

Substituting D = 6.2miles into the formula;

Cross multiply

Divide both sides by 's'

st/s = 6.2/s

t = 6.2/s

Hence, the equation that could be used to determine the time, t, it takes to run 10,000 meters as a function of the average speed, s, of the runner where t is in minutes and s in miles per minute is t = 6.2/s miles/minute

answer: city needs 2.4 inches of rainfall more to match the record of 40 inches.

step-by-step explanation:

since we have given that

total annual rainfall a city record = 40 inches

this year, total rainfall recorded = 37.6 inches

number of inches of rainfall   is needed to match the record of 40 inches is given by

hence, city needs 2.4 inches of rainfall more to match the record of 40 inches.

on monday rodney ate 1/4th of the sandwich = 3/12

on tuesday he ate 1/3rd of the sandwich = 4/12

therefore in total he has eaten = 3/12 + 4/12 = 7/12

thus we can say that he has eaten 7/12 of the sandwich on monday and tuesday alltogether.
