We can figure out how long Michael's trip took by realizing that 30 mph is 3 times 10 mph.  Because of this, the trip home will take 1/3 the amount of time it took to go up the hill.  This makes the equation 24 + 8 = 32 minutes for the whole trip.

Now we need to figure out how long the trip was.  We can do this by multiplying 10 minutes by 24/60, which equals 4.  This means that Michael went 4 miles there, and 4 miles back.  So Michael went a total of 8 miles.

Now we know that Michael went 8 miles in 32 minutes.  Now, we multiply 8 by 60/32.  This gives us 15, so Michael went 15 miles per hour on average in the trip.

The answer is 5:6:20 but can someone explain how plz?
Leya [2.2K]
The ratio of red to green is 5:6 which means that for every 5 red cars, there are 6 green cars

The ratio of green to blue is 3:10 telling us that for every 3 green cars, there are 10 blue cars. 

The ratio 3:10 is equivalent to 6:20 after we multiply both parts by 2. This now says that for every 6 green cars, there are 20 blue cars.

------------------------------

Let's say we had 5 red cars, 6 green cars and 20 blue cars
Based on that info, we know that the ratio of red to green is 5:6
And the ratio of green to blue is 6:20 which reduces to 3:10

We don't reduce 6:20 to 3:10 however, since that would change the green count from 6 to 3. We want to keep the green count at 6.

So because there are 5 red cars, 6 green cars, and 20 blue cars in this example, and this example points to the proper ratios mentioned earlier, this means that the final answer is 5:6:20. This ratio cannot be reduced or simplified as there are no common factors (other than 1) for 5, 6, and 20.

3 + 12(3p + 2) = 9(p - 3)
VikaD [51]

Answer:

3 + 12(3p + 2) = 9(p - 3) \\ 3 + 36p + 24 = 9p - 27 \\ 27p =  - 54 \\ p =  -  \frac{54}{27}  \\  \boxed{p =  - 2}

<h3>p=-2 is the right answer.</h3>
