We must look at this question in steps
The first half of the journey is travelled at 40 km/h
Half of 100km is 50 km
Using the formula
Distance = Speed x Time
Speed = Distance / Time
Time = Distance / Speed
We can work out the time:

50km / 40km/h = 1.25 hours

Next we look at the second half of the journey
50km at 80km/h
50km / 80km/h = 0.625 hours

Add together both times to work out how long the entire journey took
1.25 + 0.625 = 1.875 hours

Using the Speed formula from before
Speed = 100km / 1.875 =
53 1/3 km/h or 53.3 recurring km/h

Convert into a decimal degree measure. 165° 37' 44"
andrew11 [14]

Answer:

165.628° (The 8 has a line over it signalizing that it repeats forever, but I didn't know how to put it in.)

Step-by-step explanation:

Since 165 is whole number, it is a full degree. Since each minute is equal to 1/60 degrees, you need to multiply 37 by 1/60. Since each second is equal to 1/3600 degrees, multiply it 1/3600 by 44. Add them all together.

165 + 37 x 1/60 + 44 x 1/3600

simplify: 74533/450

Convert the fraction into a decimal by dividing the numerator by the denominator and you get 165.628° (with a repeating 8).

I need help ASAP plzzzzzzzzzzzzz
n200080 [17]

Answer:

3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's say that r is the radius of the large circle or the diameter of the small circle.

Area of the big circle is \pi r^{2} .

Area of the small circle is \pi \frac{r}{2} ^{2} = \pi \frac{r^{2}}{4}.

The ratio of these 2 circles is 1/4 (calculation in the comments).

So the shaded part represent 1 - 1/4 = 3/4.
