Answer:

The average speed = 55 miles per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the information

Distance covered by Kenneth = 184.25 miles

Time taken by Kenneth to cover the distance $=3\frac{7}{20}=\frac{67}{20}=3.35\:hours$

As we know that the average speed can be found using the formula:

$Average\:speed\:=\:\frac{Total\:Distance\:covered}{Total\:Time\:taken\:to\:cover\:the\:distance}\:$

Distance covered by Kenneth = 184.25 miles

Time taken by Kenneth to cover the distance $=3\frac{7}{20}=\frac{67}{20}=3.35\:hours$

So,

$Average\:speed\:=\:\frac{184.25}{3.35}$

= 55 miles per hour

Therefore, the average speed = 55 miles per hour

Before tax & after a 50%

Slav-nsk [51]

Answer: The boots were marked $86.

Step-by-step explanation: We know Mica's total was $100 for the bill. He got the only hat left marked $12, and a pair of boots. Before tax and after a 50% sale, her total is $100. Since she spent $12 for the hat, we know the rest of the money is going towards the boots. The boots will cost $86.

Hat($12) + Boots($86) = 100

One year on Venus is equivalent to 224.7 days on Earth. How many days on Earth, in decimal from, are equivalent to 9 ½ years on

Ivan

By using simple rule of three, a period of 9.5 years on Venus is equivalent to 2134.65 terrestrial days.

<h3>How many terrestrial days are equivalent time in Venus?</h3>

One year on Earth is equivalent to 365.3 days and one year on Venus is equivalent to 224.7 days, the equivalent terrestrial time of 9.5 years on Venus is found by simple rule of three:

x = 9.5 yr × (224.7 days / 1 yr)

x = 2134.65 days

A period of 9.5 years on Venus is equivalent to 2134.65 terrestrial days.

The mean sat verbal score is 486, with a standard deviation of 95. use the empirical rule to determine what percent of the score

Pavel [41]

Find the z-scores for the two scores in the given interval.

$z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}$

For the score x =391, $z=\frac{391-486}{95}=\frac{-95}{95}=-1$ .

For the score x = 486, $z=\frac{486-486}{95}=0$

Now you want the area (proportion of data) under the normal distribution from z = -1 to z = 0. The Empirical Rule says that 68% of the data falls between z = -1 to z = 1. But the curve is symmetrical around the vertical axis at z = 0, so the answer you want is HALF of 68%.
