Since the distances were the same you can find the average speed directly by adding the speeds then dividing by 2. No need to weight anything.
If we’re considering speed regardless of direction, the average speed is:
(24 + 16) / 2 = 40 / 2 = 20mph
However if direction matters, then one number has to be negative since the directions are opposite:
(24 - 16) / 2 = 8 / 2 = 4mph (in the positive direction)
Depending on the context, either of these could be your answer.
Answer: 7 & 10
Step-by-step explanation:
7+10=17
10-7=3
It's 14.285714%
So, simplified it would be 14.3% because you round the 2 up since theres an 8 behind it.
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Notice that
.
The diagram already marks
, so we just need to find
.
and
are vertical angles, which means they are equal in measure.
Therefore,

Since there are
on each side of a line, we have the following equation:
.
Plugging in
, we have:
.
Therefore,
.
