Answer: 2.5 hours is the answer

Step-by-step explanation:

It took Travis 2.5 hours to complete 3/4 of his trip. To find the average speed, we need to find his speed during 3/4 of the trip and then the 52.5 miles.

So you know that 52.5 is 1/4 of his total trip. That means if we multiply that by 3, that's how many miles he traveled in 2.5hrs. (157.5)

To calculate speed, divide distance by time.

For 3/4 of his trip (157.5), it took him 2.5 hours.

157.5/2.5 = 63mph

For the remaining 52.5 miles, it took him an hour.

52.5/1 = 52.5mph

Now average those two speeds to get the average speed for the whole trip.

(63+52.5)/2= 57.6mph

OLga [1]

Answer: b. histogram

Step-by-step explanation:

A histogram is a graphical summary of data previously summarized in a frequency distribution. It is an accurate representation of the distribution of numerical data, the height of each bar shows how many fall into each range(the frequency of each range). Data from a frequency distribution table can be easily summarised graphically on a histogram.

An example of histogram is shown in the attachment

Answer:

-160

Step-by-step explanation:

-15(10 2/3) = -15(10) +(-15)(2/3) = -150 -30/3 = -150 -10 = -160

The mixed number can be written as the sum of an integer and a fraction. The multiplier then multiplies the integer and the fraction separately, and the two products are added.
