Answer:

1150 km/hr

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula for Average Speed is given as = Distance in Kilometers/ Time in Hours

In the question we are given the following parameters.

The length of a planet's orbit around a star = Distance = 17,650,000 km.

Time taken to complete a full orbit = 640 Earth days

Step 1

We need to convert the time in days to hours

1 Earth day = 24 hours

640 Earth days =

We cross multiply

640 Earth days × 24 hours

= 15360 hours.

Step 2

Average Speed = Distance in Kilometers/ Time in Hours

Average Speed = 17,650,000 km. /15360 hours

Average Speed = 1149.0885417 km/hr

Approximately to 3 significant figures=

1150 km/hr

Therefore, the planets average speed in kmh-1 to 3sf is 1150 km/hr

A jar contains 18 red marbles 14 green marbels and 20 blue marbles a marble was selected at random the color was recorded and th

muminat

The "relative frequency" is

(number of times a blue marble came out)
divided by
(total number of trials before everybody got bored and quit) .

-- The relative frequency of blue was (20/60) = (33 and 1/3) % .
(Even though 38.5% of the marbles in the jar are blue,
they didn't get picked that often.)

-- The relative frequency of green was (18/60) = 30 % .
(Even though only 26.9% of the marbles in the jar are green,
they got picked more often than that.)

-- The relative frequency of red was (22/60) = (36 and 2/3) % .
(Even though 42.3% of the marbles in the jar are red,
they didn't get picked that often.)

A water park charges a rental fee plus $1.50 per hour to rent inflatable rafts. The total cost to rent a raft do 6 hours is $15.

djyliett [7]

Answer:

rental fee = $6

average cost for 6 hours = $2.50/hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

x + 1.50*6 = 15 where x = the initial rental fee

x + 9 = 15

x = $6

The rental fee is $6.

For 6 hours, the cost per hour works out to 15/6 = $2.50
