Answer:
20 meters
Step-by-step explanation:
The track is circular so it means that after Patrick raced the entire track he is back at the starting point. In other words, every 440 meters he is back to the beginning.
So we would have that, if he races round the track twice, he would run 440(2) = 880 meters and he would be back at the starting point.
The problem asks us how far is he from the starting point at the 900 meter mark. If at 880 meters he is at the starting point, then at 900 meters he would be 
meters from the starting point.
Answer:
less than 1 1/2 gallons
Step-by-step explanation:
1/3 + 1/6 = 1/2, so the sum of the three cans is more than 1 by the difference between 1/5 and 1/6. That difference is 1/30 gallon. The sum is 1 1/30 gallons, which is less than 1 1/2 gallons.

A suitable common denominator is 2·3·5 = 30. Then the sum of the fractions is ...
1/3 + 1/5 + 1/2
= 10/30 + 6/30 + 15/30
= 31/30 = 1 1/30 . . . . . less than 1 1/2
In decimal, 1/3 ≈ 0.333, 1/5 = 0.200, 1/2 = 0.500, so the sum is ...
0.333 +0.200 +0.500 = 1.033
which is less than 1.5.
Answer:
37 and 38
Step-by-step explanation:
let the consecutive integers be x-1 and x
If their sum is 75
x-1+x = 75
2x - 1 = 75
2x = 75+1
2x = 76
x = 76/2
x = 38
First integer = x - 1
First integer = 38-1 = 37
Second integer is 38
Hence the integers are 37 and 38
X intercepts are -3 and 5
