The race is 111.6 m long.
8 hurdles spaced 12.3 m apart means 7 spaces that are 12.3 m in length; 7*12.3 = 86.1
Add to this the distance to the first hurdle and the distance from the last hurdle:
86.1+15+10.5 = 111.6 m
1/3 of all students bring lunch
2:3 is the ratio of students who bring their lunch to the number of students who do not
Answer:
2x + 2y = 24
Step-by-step explanation:
Average speed = (distance covered in some time) / (time to cover the distance)
4 hours 45 minutes = 4-3/4 hours = 4.75 hours
Average speed = (3,800 km) / (4.75 hours) = 800 km/hr
