Answer: Both families were travelling at the same speed/rate of 1mile/0.65mins or 1mile/0.01hr.

Step-by-step explanation: Speed of Houck family's train = 552m/6hrs

speed of Robert family's train = 744m/8hrs.

Therefore considering Houck speed,

552miles = 6hours

1mile = (6 x 60)/552

= 360/552

= 0.65minutes. Average speed = 1mile/0.65mins. Or 1mile/0.01hr

For Robert

744miles = 8hours

1mile = ( 8 x 60 )/744

= (480/744)minutes

= 0.645

= 0.65minutes. Average speed = 1mile/0.65mins. Or 1mile/0.01hr

Conclusion: Both families were travelling at the same speed/rate.

To get that minutes in hour, just divide by 60 to get concert to hours.

While preparing for a morning conference, principal Corsetti is laying out 8 dozen bagels on square plates. Each plate can hold
timofeeve [1]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We have 8 dozen bagels, or 8*12=96 bagels.  Each plate can hold 14 bagels, so we have enough bagels to fill 96/14=about 6.86 plates.  However, we cannot have a fraction of a plate, so we round up to have a total of seven plates.  To fill all seven plates fully, 7*14=98 bagels would be needed, which is two more than we have.

To summarize, Mr. Corsetti has seven plates of bagels, and would need two more bagels to fill the last one up.

Among two supplementary angles, the measure of the larger angle is 44°
zhuklara [117]

Answer:

68° and 112°

Step-by-step explanation:

Supplementary angles sum to 180°

let the smaller angle be x then the larger angle is x + 44 , then

x + x + 44 = 180 , that is

2x + 44 = 180 ( subtract 44 from both sides )

2x = 136 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 68

Smaller angle = 68° and

larger angle = x + 44 = 68 + 44 = 112°
