9mph is the average speed  for the round-trip.

<h3>What is Average speed?</h3>

The average speed is the total distance traveled by the object in a particular time interval.

Given that Calvin's first leg of the trip took 0.5 hr (30 minutes) at 6 mph.  That means he travelled (0.5hr x 6 mph =) 3 miles.  

He travelled 3 miles on the return trip, by definition (same path home).  

At 18 mph, 3 miles would take (3 miles/18 mph =) 0.1667 hours.  

That makes a total of 6 miles

0.5 + 0.1667= 0.6667 hours.

(6 miles)/(0.6667 hours) = 9 mph

9mph is Calvin's average speed for the round trip.

Answer:

<u>9 mph</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Calvin's first leg of the trip took 0.5 hr (30 minutes) at 6 mph.  That means he travelled (0.5hr x 6 mph =) 3 miles.  He travelled 3 miles on the return trip, by definition (same path home).  At 18 mph, 3 miles would take (3 miles/18 mph =) 0.1667 hours.  That makes a total of 6 miles and (0.5 + 0.1667=) 0.6667 hours.

(6 miles)/(0.6667 hours) = 9 mph is Calvin's average speed for the round trip.

Rewrite the following equation in slope-intercept form.
Nana76 [90]

Answer:

y=1.7x + 1.3

Step-by-step explanation:

16x + 15y =20

therefore we make the variable stand on its own

15y = 20 - 16x

Divide both sides by the variable which is 15.

it will be y= 1.3 - 1 7x

so therefore the answer is :

y= 1.7x + 1.3
