Answer:

We are moving at 50 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello, great question. These types are questions are the beginning steps for learning more advanced Algebraic Equations.

The first thing we need to do in order to solve this problem is change the initial speed into mph.

\frac{1.5mi}{1min} * 60min =  \frac{90mi}{hour}

Now we subtract the initial speed by 15 mph.

\frac{90mi}{hour} - \frac{15mi}{hour} = \frac{75mi}{hour}

Finally, we need to reduce the current speed by 1/3, this means that the final speed is 2/3 of the current speed. We can calculate this by multiplying the current speed by 2/3 like so,

\frac{75mi}{hour} * \frac{2}{3} = \frac{50mi}{hour}

Finally, we can see that we are moving at 50 mph

I hope this answered your question. If you have any more questions feel free to ask away at Brainly.

1.5 miles per minute is 90 mph.

Slowing down by 15 mph makes 75 mph.

Reduce speed by a third (25 mph) and that makes 50 mph.

in 1990 there were about 5.4 billion people in the world. if the population has been growing at 1.95% per year, estimate the yea
kompoz [17]

Answer:

2011

Step-by-step explanation:

Here is the formula.

A=P(1+r)^{n}

A = Final Value

P = Starting Value

R = Rate

N = Time in Years

A = 8,000,000,000

P = 5,400,000,000

R = 0.0195

N = Time in Years

Solve for n.

20.35 Years from 1990; so sometime in 2011 the population would be 8 billion.
