The difference between their swim times was 0.055 seconds.
Answer:
12 pieces
Step-by-step explanation:
Since on Thursday Glenn and Ben each ate an eight, then total they ate 2*1/8=2/8=¼
¼ of 24 pieces is equivalent to
¼*24=6 pieces
The number of pieces that remain would be 24-6=18 pieces
The one third of leftover ate rhe next day will be equivalent to
⅓ of 18
⅓*18=6 pieces
Remaining pieces next day will be 18-6=12 pieces
Therefore, only 12 pieces out of 24 original pieces remain the following day.
To help you out see how much one yard is then how much a feet is and it should help then multiply.
Assume that the initial coordinates are (x,y) and that the dilated coordinates are (x',y').
The dilation is therefore:
(x,y) ............> (x',y')
Now, let's assume that the dilation factor is k.
Therefore:
x' = kx
y' = ky
Based on the above, all the student has to do is get the initial coordinates and the final ones and then substitute in any of the above two equations to get the value of k.
Example:
Assume an original point at (2,4) is dilated to coordinates (4,8). Find the dilation factor.
Assume the dilation coefficient is k.
(x,y) are (2,4) and (x',y') are (4,8)
Therefore:
x' = kx .........> 4 = k*2 ..........> k = 2
or:
y' = ky ..........> 8 = k*4 .........> k = 2
Based on the above, the dilation coefficient would be 2.
Hope this helps :)
