Elana can swim 12 laps in 8 minutes. Elana has 32 minutes to swim. Can she complete 50 laps in this time? Please explain answer.

The answer would be No. She would only be able to swim 48 laps. To get to this answer you have to find the unit rate ( I think that's what it's called, please forgive me if I'm wrong ). To do this you have to divide 12 by 8 to get to 1.5 You then multiply 1.5 by 32 to find how many laps she can swim in 32 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

12 divided by 8 = 1.5

1.5 X 32 = 48

A = 48

answer: 298143

step-by-step explanation:

for this pair of functions g(x)=x-2 and f(x)=|x| is (g o f)(a)= |a| -2

step-by-step explanation:

g(x)=x-2

f(x)=|x|

(g o f)(a)=?

(g o f)(x)=g(f(x))

(g o f)(x)=g(|x|)

(g o f)(x)=|x|-2

(g o f)(a)=|a|-2
