A is the right option! Because 0.40 should be in second equation with the x to represent the number of stamps multiply by 40 cents.
To calculate any speed, the equation is speed=distance/time
Basically, you first need to take your 9 hours and 15 minutes and combine them into a number with a decimal value.
So, 15*4=60
Sound familiar? Good, because 25*4=100, so they are the same here.
So, we can say 9 hours and 15 minutes is equal to 9.25
Take this now: Speed=538/9.25
You get 58.1621, which you can round to 58.2
This is, of course, your final answer, so Joe drove at 58.16 mph

Answer:
1.25 gallons of alcohol
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the amount of alcohol to add to the mix. Then the total amount of alcohol in the mix is ...
0.15×20 + x = 0.20×(20 +x)
3 +x = 4 + 0.2x . . . . simplify
0.8x = 1 . . . . . . . . . . add -3-0.2x
x = 1/0.8 = 1.25 . . . . divide by 0.8
1.25 gallons of alcohol should be added to make 21.25 gallons of 20% alcohol.
