The complete question is
<span>Sarah rides her horse for 2 1/6 hrs with a constant speed of 6 km/hr and then for another 2 hours and 5 minutes with a constant speed of 12 km/hr what is her average speed for the total trip?</span>
we know that
speed=distance/time
1) Sarah rides her horse for 2 1/6 hrs with a constant speed of 6 km/hr
time=2 1/6 hrs----> 13/6 hrs
speed=6 km/h
distance=speed*time----> 6*(13/6)---> 13 km
2)for another 2 hours and 5 minutes with a constant speed of 12 km/hr
time=2hrs+5 minutes----> 2+(5/60)--> 125/60 hrs
speed=12 km/hrs
distance=speed*time----> 12*(125/60)---> 25 km
3) find the average speed for the total trip
total distance=13 km+25 km----> 38 km
total time=(13/6)+(125/60)----> (10*13+125)/60----> 4.25 hours
speed=38/4.25----> 8.94 km/hrs
the answer is
8.94 km/hrs
Answer:
the answer is 52.
Step-by-step explanation:
You have to do [(6+6+2)*(3)] + [(2)*(5)] to get your answer.
(6+6+2)=14
14*3=42
2*5=10
10+42=52
Answer:
the answer is 140
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
She is not correct because she did not substitute the same number in both expressions in Step 1
Step-by-step explanation:
CASE 1: substitute 1 for x to both sides of the equations
L.H.S
-(4x-5)+2(x-3)
-(4 (1) - 5)+ 2(1-3) = - (-1) + 2(-2) = 1 - 4 = -3
R.H.S
-2x - 5
-2(1) - 5 = -2-5 = -7
Hence for x= 1
-(4x-5)+2(x-3) ≠ -2x -5
Because -3 ≠ -7
CASE 2: substitute -1 for x to both sides of the equations
L.H.S
-(4x-5)+2(x-3)
-(4 (-1) - 5)+ 2(-1-3) = - (-9) + 2(-4) = 9 - 8 = 1
R.H.S
-2x - 5
-2(-1) - 5 = 2-5 = -3
Hence for x= -1
-(4x-5)+2(x-3) ≠ -2x -5
Because 1 ≠ -3
Answer:
She is not correct because she did not substitute the same number in both expressions in Step 1
No because in 1/3 you get 2/6 so if you have 1/3 vs. 5/6 than you only have 1/3 containing 2/6 and we are looking for 5/6 so that is wrong. 5/6 is bigger that 1/3.
