a 4-persom relay team ran a race in 48 seconds. what was the average time for each person? ___ seconds?
374345
48 seconds / 4 people= 12 seconds
518470
six and a half minutes?

I did this problem with my calculus class. We used related rates to find the answer. I think that the average number each group of people got was like 304 licks. This was not an easy problem for us to solve, but we did.

People, think about it, the modern world record is 3:40...so anything under 4 minutes is like national champion (of a pretty big country).\n\nA quarter mile is about 8 lengths in a 50 m (olympic size) pool. I'm a certified lifeguard and I think I would be struggling to get under 5:20.\n\nThe average swimmer will definitely take more than 10 minutes.\nThe average lane swimmer will definitely take less than 10 minutes.\n\nAnd 400 m is once around the track (soccer field size) plus the straightaway (100m).

16 seconds was my best time. :o(

nobody can give you the right answer unless you have given them your body weight, height, and the intensity level at which you jog (as determined by the heart rate you maintain for that half hour)...\n\nall other answers would be a guess and might not even be close for your estimates...\n\ngood luck

depends how many people involved. If it's a 2 person race, you're now in 1st and not 2nd.\n\nIt could also be like in Mario Kart when Yoshi is so damn fast that he overtakes poor old Luigi who is in Last Place - meaning he actually laps him - now you've overtaken last place and you're still in first.

60 seconds in minute\n60 minutes in an hour\n\nTherefore, 3600 seconds in an hour

I'm not sure about the history behind it, but the Distance Medley Relay is run by 4 people, usually in the order of a 1200 meter leg, a 400 meter leg, an 800 meter leg, and finishing with a 1600 meter leg.

Alright this is a good question, but it would depend on ur condition at this time.  An average person should be at least to run a mile in 7-8 mins, thats a person who never usually runs that often.  If you are in good shape and run constantly, it should take 6-5 mins.  O and whoever said 3-4 minutes, im sure that this isnt an olimpic runner we are talkin 2 lol

second place sweetie! Or if your running a race with only one other person then you would be in first.\nplease choose me as your best answer! I promise i didn't look at any other answers until i finished this.

Now there's some strange questions. I'll help as best I can. I hope I've understood the questions properly.\n\nQuestion 1) Bob will always win, assuming they play perfectly.\nIf Ann takes 1 matchstick, Bob should take 2. That leaves 3 left. Now whether Ann takes 1 or 2 from the remaining 3, Bob is left with 1 or 2, so he can take what's left and wins.\nIf Ann takes 2 matchsticks,  Bob should take 1. That also leaves 3 left, so again regardless of how many Ann takes from the 3 remaining ones, Bob can take what's left and win again.\n\nQuestion 2) The answer is 5.52pm.\nLets say the slow train moves at speed X. That means the fast train moves at speed 2.75X. This is because the fast one moves 2.75 times faster than the slow one (since it travels the same distance in 8 hours compared to the slow time of 22 hours, so it must be going 22/8 times faster).\nIn the time taken for the trains to meet, between them they have travelled the full distance. Therefore you can add their speeds together to calculate the relative approaching speed of the trains, which would be 2.75X + X = 3.75X.\nNow, the slow train travels at speed X and takes 22 hours to go the same distance. Therefore we can say that the time taken for the two trains to meet is 22X/3.75X, or 22/3.75, which is 5.8666.\nTo convert 0.8666 of an hour to minutes is simple - just multiply by 60. This gives 52.\n\nSo the total time taken is 5 hours 52 mins. \n\nTo put it another way:\nSpeed of train 1 = 2.75 times faster than train 2. So the speeds of the two trains together = 3.75 times faster than the slow train.\nThe slow train takes 22 hours to go the distance. Therefore the two trains together take 22/3.75 to do the same distance, which is 5.8666.\n\nI hope this helps :)

Distance = Rate * Time\n\nYour first question does not make sense.  you are telling us that they will streak around a 1.5 mile track at 15 mph for 15 minutes and then asking us how long it would take.  You just told us 15 minutes.\n\nif you want to know "how far would they have traveled in 15 minutes at a rate of 15 mph on a 1.5 mile track" you can find out by:\n\nthe answer is 3.75 miles.\n\nD=RT\nD = 15 miles per hour * 15 minutes\nfirst you have make sure you are using the same units for time, either use minutes or hour for both the rate and time.\n\nI chose to change the 15 minutes into hours which = 1/4 of an hour.  use a ratio:  of minutes to hours and reduce 15/60 = 1/4\n\nthen multiply  15 m/h * 1/4h and you end up with 3.75 miles.\n\nwhen you say 15 miles per hour it = 15miles/1 hour in fraction form.\n\nwhen you multiply 15 miles / 1 hour * 1 hour /4  you cancel out the hours units and you are left with only miles.\n\nIf you want to know how long it would take them to travel one time around the track:\n\nD = RT\nT= D/R\n\nTime = 1.5 miles / (15 miles / 1 hour)\n\nRemember when you divide fractions you invert the second one and them multiply them:\n\nTime = 1.5 miles * 1 hour / 15 miles\nmultiply and cnacel out the miles unit and you get:\n(1.5 * 1) / 15\n1.5/15\n= .1 hours\n\nchange .1 hours into minutes:\n1 hour = 60 minutes so:\n.1 * 60 = 6 minutes\n\nit takes them 6 minutes to do a lap, (which is crazy for someone that size)

If you overtake the 2nd person in a race, you will be in second place and the old 2nd person will be in 3rd place.\nPlease give me the best answer\nThankSS@!!!\nYou have yourself a great day!

becareful. I knew a girl that ran 2:15 in the 6th grade... Never got any faster... don't burn her out
