Average speed for the entire trip, both ways, is
(Total distance) divided by (total time) .
We don't know the distance from his house to the gift store,
and we don't know how long it took him to get back.
We'll need to calculate these.
-- On the trip TO the store, it took him 50 minutes, at 6 mph.
-- 50 minutes is 5/6 of an hour.
-- Traveling at 6 mph for 5/6 of an hour, he covered 5 miles.
-- The gift store is 5 miles from his house.
-- The total trip both ways was 10 miles.
-- On the way BACK home from the store, he moved at 12 mph.
-- Going 5 miles at 12 mph, it takes (5/12 hour) = 25 minutes.
Now we have everything we need.
Distance:
Going: 5 miles
Returning: 5 miles
Total 10 miles
Time:
Going: 50 minutes
Returning: 25 minutes
Total: 75 minutes = 1.25 hours
Average speed for the whole trip =
(total distance) / (total time)
= (10 miles) / (1.25 hours)
= (10 / 1.25) miles/hours
= 8 miles per hour
Answer:
34
explanation:
First of all, put the numbers in order
30, 31, 31, 32, 33, 35, 35, 35, 36, 36
Then, find the middle number.
In this case, there is an even amount of numbers so, we have to pick the 2 middle numbers which is 33 and 35.
Now all you have to do is add these two numbers together then divide by 2 which will give you 34.
or, in simpler questions like this one, you can just say 34 as you know it is between 33 and 35.
In other questions, it might have and odd amount of numbers, for example:
3, 3, 5, 8, 10
so all you would do here is pick the middle number which would be 5. (it has 2 numbers on each side of it)
D.y = 10x + 250
y = 12x + 150 is the correct answer to the question
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
1/2 (6x-10) - x
Opening bracket
= 6x/2 - 10/2 - x
= 3x - 5 - x
= 2x - 5
