Answer:

B. $36\frac{3}{4}\ mph$

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for average speed:

$S_{average} = \frac{distance}{time}\\\\S = \frac{49\ miles}{1\frac{1}{3}\ hours}\\\\S = 36.75 = 36\frac{3}{4}\ mph$

Chevy has some yarn that he wants to use to make hats and scarves. Each hat uses 0.20.20, point, 2 kilograms of yarn and each sc

Rashid [163]

Answer:

The system of equation that represent this situations are;

$\left \{ {{h+s=15} \atop {0.2h+0.1s=2}} \right.$

Also 5 hats and 10 scarves can be prepared from 2 kg of yarn.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let number of hat Chevy makes be h.

Also Let number of scarves Chevy makes be s.

Given:

Total Amount of yarns = 2 kg

Total number of items = 15

Since Items need to make are hat and scarves.

Hence the equation can be represented as;

$h+s=15 \ \ \ \ equation \ 1$

Again Given:

Each hat uses 0.2 kilograms of yarn.

each scarf uses 0.1 kilograms of yarn.

Hence the equation can be represented as;

$0.2h+0.1s=2 \ \ \ \ \ equation \ 2$

Hence the system of equation that represent this situations are;

$\left \{ {{h+s=15} \atop {0.2h+0.1s=2}} \right.$

Now Solving these to find number of hats and number of scarves.

Multiplying equation 2 with 10 we get;

$10(0.2h+0.1s)=2\times 10\\10\times0.2h+10\times0.1s=20\\2h+s =20 \ \ \ \ \ equation \ 3$

Now Subtracting equation 1 from equation 3 we get;

$(2h+s)- (h+s) =20-15\\2h+s-h-s=5\\h= 5$

Now Substituting the value of h in equation 1 we get;

$h+s= 15\\5+s =15\\s=15-5\\s=10$

Hence 5 hats and 10 scarves can be prepared from 2 kg of yarn.

It costs 4 tokens to park in a garage for an hour. how many hours can you park with 30 tokens?

babunello [35]

Read the question carefully: it costs 4 tokens to park in a garage for an hour.

We will apply the unitary method to solve this question

It costs 4 tokens to park in a garage for 1 hour

Find how many hours can park in a garage for 1 token

If it costs 4 token to park in a garage for 1 hour

Then it will cost 1 token to park in a garage for 1/4 hour

Step2:

With 20 token we can park in a garage for (1/4) * 20

= 5 hours

So, we can park for 5 hours with 20 tokens.

Another method

If we take twenty tokens and divide them into groups of four, we will find that we are left with five groups of tokens. Each group of tokens represents an hour of parking time. This will give us five groups, or five hours, total.

So, we can park for 5 hours with 20 tokens
