The classic formula relating rate (also called “average speed”), time and distance is:
r x t = d
That is, rate x time equals distance. The problem statement asks us for the rate and gives us the time (6 hours) and distance (480 miles). We can substitute those values into the classic formula:
r x 6 hours = 480 miles
To solve for r, we divide the terms on both sides of the equal sign by 6 hours. This works because the two sides are equal and we treat them equally by dividing the two sides by the same amount, so the results should be equal. Thus we get:
r = 480 miles/6 hours
Simplifying, we get:
r = 80 miles/hour
To CHECK, let’s plug back into the original equation:
r x t = d
80 miles/ hour x 6 hours = 480 miles
480 miles = 480 miles which is true. Yippee.
Answer:
B. (0.87, 0.48)

I calculated it logically
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
116f) 5 - |p + 6| = -8
|p + 6| = 13
p + 6 = 13 OR p + 6 = -13
p = 7 OR p = -19
In this case, I think you have to plot a point at 7 and -19.
116a) |7x| = 5
7x = 5 OR 7x = -5
x = 
OR x = 
Again, I think you need to plot points at and .
