3 1/2 miles = 7/2 miles
1/2 hours= 30 minutes
So,
In 30 mins, travelled 7/2 miles
In 1 min, travelled 7/2 ÷ 30= 7/2× 1/30 = (7×1)/(2×30) = 7/60 miles
In 60 mins, travelled (7×60)/60 miles = 420/60 miles = 7 miles.
Hence, the speed is 7 miles per hour.
Answer:
8/24 is correct. However, I would simplify 8/24 down to 1/3, since most teachers want you to do that.
So, since there are two equations, we can substitute one of them into the other. In this case, it would be easiest to substitute 2b=6a-14 into the other equations. But first, simplify by dividing both sides by 2. You bet b=3a-1
We can now plug this into the other equation
Sine the equation b=3a-1 results in the value of b, we have to plug in for the value of b in the other equation
So this is what we get after plugging in:
3a-(3a-1)=7
Now, simplify. 3a-3a+1=7
Since 3a-3a = 0, this equation results in a no solution
Answer:
The result is a no-solution, or Ф
Hope this helped!! :D
1/4 an hour is 60 divided by 4 times 1 which is 15 minutes.
3/5 an hour is 60 divided by 5 times 3 which is 36 minutes.
15 plus 36 equals 51 minutes which is less than 1 hour.
