The correct Answer is:
To find the time shown by the image of a wall clock in a plane mirror, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the Time Format**: The given time on the clock is 04:25:37, which means: - Hours = 4 - Minutes = 25 - Seconds = 37 2. **Determine the Total Time in Seconds**: Convert the time into seconds for easier calculations: - Total seconds = (Hours × 3600) + (Minutes × 60) + Seconds - Total seconds = (4 × 3600) + (25 × 60) + 37 - Total seconds = 14400 + 1500 + 37 = 15937 seconds 3. **Calculate the Time in Mirror**: To find the time shown by the mirror image, we need to subtract the given time from 12 hours (or 11 hours and 60 minutes): - Total seconds in 12 hours = 12 × 3600 = 43200 seconds - Time in mirror = 43200 seconds - 15937 seconds - Time in mirror = 27263 seconds 4. **Convert Back to Hours, Minutes, and Seconds**: - Hours = 27263 // 3600 = 7 hours - Remaining seconds = 27263 % 3600 = 2263 seconds - Minutes = 2263 // 60 = 37 minutes - Seconds = 2263 % 60 = 43 seconds 5. **Final Result**: Therefore, the time shown by the image in the mirror is: - **7 hours, 34 minutes, and 43 seconds**.

To find the time shown by the image of a wall clock in a plane mirror, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the Time Format**: The given time on the clock is 04:25:37, which means: - Hours = 4 - Minutes = 25 - Seconds = 37 ...

(3.86)/(x)+(180.2)/(10x)+(42.2)/(5x) The Ironman Triathlon originated in Hawaii in 1978. The format of the Ironman has not changed since then: It consists of a 3.86-km swim, a 180.2-km bicycle ride, and a 42.2-km run, all raced in that order and without a break. Suppose an athlete bikes 10 times as fast as he swims and runs 5 times as fast as he swims. The variable x in the expression above represents the rate at which the athlete swims, and the whole expression represents the number of hours that it takes him to complete the race. If it takes him 16.2 hours to complete the race, how many kilometers did he swim in 1 hour?
