Answer:
10.74s or faster (lower)
Step-by-step explanation:
The lowest time out of all of them is 10.75, so to all the 5th swimmer needs to do to win is to undercut the swimmer who got 10.75s by a 100th of a second. i.e 10.74s or faster (lower) would win.
The first step to solving this is to multiply both sides of the equation by 3
8 + 10y = 9y - 12
now move the variable to the left side and change its sign
8 + 10y - 9y = -12
move the constant to the right side and change its sign
10y - 9y = -12 - 8
collect the like terms for y
y = -12 - 8 (it equals 1 when you subtract 10 from 9 which is the same is simply saying "y")
calculate the difference on the other side of the equals sign
y = -20
this means that the correct answer to your question is -20.

10% of 120 = 12
12 x 7 = 84
70% = 84
120 x 70 = 8400
8400 / 100 = 84
It’s either showing you that both sides of the equation equal to the same thing or that you can find 70% of 120 by using the steps on the right
This is what I put in my response
For me I thought that algebra was better. I loved algebra I mean math is math somethings in math are hard, somethings are easy, sometimes in math you will come across something that seems impossible. Sometimes you will fly thru but, what makes the journey bearable is the people around you. Why I think algebra is better is because of the people that were in math course with me and my teacher because. The teachers make all the difference.
