D = rt
Uphill
d = 10(12/60) d = 2 miles (12/60) represents part of an hour

Downhill
2 = 30t
2/30 = t 1/15 = t 1/15 of an hour = 4 minutes

Average speed = total miles covered/total time
total distance = 4 miles
total time = 4 minutes + 12 minutes = 16 minutes/60 = 4/15 of an hour
4/(4/15) = 15 mph

Answer: C. Left-handed: 48 Right-handed: 504

E. Left-handed: 30 Right-handed: 315

Step-by-step explanation:

Here is the completed question:

At East Middle School, there are 58 left-handed students and 609 right-handed students. The numbers of left- and right-handed students at West Junior High are proportional to the numbers at East Middle School. Which of the following could be the numbers of left-handed and right-handed students at West Junior High?

A. Left-handed: 42 Right-handed: 483

B. Left-handed: 28 Right-handed: 378

C. Left-handed: 48 Right-handed: 504

D. Left-handed: 56 Right-handed: 560

E. Left-handed: 30 Right-handed: 315

Since it's direct proportion, we have to calculate the constant of proportionality which will simply be:

= 609 / 58 = 10.5

A. Left-handed: 42 Right-handed: 483

Constant = 483/42 = 11.5

Incorrect

B. Left-handed: 28 Right-handed: 378

Constant = 378/28 = 13.5
