arlo finish it in 19.6 . boots in 20.58 . and champ 19.13

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but 19.13 isnt on the answers o.O

OpenStudy (the_fizicx99):

Arlo finishes at 19.6 Boot's speed is .05 faster. so 19.6 + .05 = 19.65 19.65 - .07 = 19.58 @demonguy how'd you get 20.58?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

19.6x 5% 19.6x0.05=0.98 is the porcent of 5

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i guess ill lucky guess it A :P

OpenStudy (anonymous):

19.6+0.98+20.58

OpenStudy (the_fizicx99):

I thought about multiplying it but it didn't give me one of the options so I just added it

OpenStudy (anonymous):

sorry i was =20.58

OpenStudy (anonymous):

but is not about adding u need to know what is the 5%

OpenStudy (anonymous):

answer was B

OpenStudy (the_fizicx99):

Misread it.. "If Boots runs at a speed that is five percent faster than Arlo's,"

OpenStudy (anonymous):

that is why iis the percent not just 5 seconds

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ahh whatever
