Each piece would be about 2.4 feet long. You find this out by dividing 7.2 and 3 which comes out to 2.4

Assume Josh made X cupcakes; Alice made Y cupcakes; Tom made Z cupcakes.
Josh made 10 more cakes than Alice so,
X = Y + 10 ---- 1st Eqn.

Alice made 8 more than Tom so,
Y= Z+8 --- 2nd Eqn.

Total cakes = 62 so,
X+Y+Z = 62 ---- 3rd Eqn.

by solving three equations we get X= 30; Y= 20; Z=12.
So Tom made 12 cupcakes

Two people are driving to work at different constant speeds. The graph below shows the distance traveled over time by driver 1.

Answer:

5 mph

Step-by-sep explanation:

To find of out the difference between the speed of the two drivers in miles per hour (not in miles per minute), first, calculate the unit rate or speed of driver 1 using the graph, and driver 2 using the table given.

Unit rate/speed = distance travelled/time = y/x.

Speed of Driver 1/unit rate:

The graph shows 1.5 miles (y) is travelled in 2 minutes (x).

Convert the 2 minutes to hour, you will have:

$\frac{2}{60} = \frac{1}{30} hr$
